# jsdoc comment toggler
extension to toggle a JSDoc comment on the target text, properly indenting and spacing
everything
no longer will you need to flip around between comment tags while converting a
JavaScript block or line comment into more formal JSDoc; put your cursor inside a
comment and bam
## Features
- convert a line comment into JSDoc and vice versa
- convert a block comment into JSDoc and vice versa
- generate a new JSDoc comment to start documenting a variable
- generate inline JSDoc for "casting" a value with `@type`
## Usage
- command: `Toggle JSDoc Comment`
- keyboard shortcut: `ctrl+r ctrl+/` or `cmd+r cmd+/` for MacOS
- the shortcut uses chords - press the first key combination, release, and then
press the second (tip: you can hold `ctrl`/`cmd` the whole time)
- change shortcut in Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> Search "jsdoc-comment-toggler"
## Extension Settings
- `jsdoc-comment-toggler.disableCursorHack` - disable a cursor hack that avoids a VSCode issue where it's impossible to add text after a cursor that's at the end of a line. In that scenario, this hack inserts a snippet with a zero-width-space after the cursor to invisibly keep the cursor in the correct position while running the edits. The extension removes the zero-width-space while adding the comment tags. This hack is safe to use because VSCode highlights the zero-width-space for you to manually remove if something fails. If you ever see a zero-width-space in a comment, please create an issue on GitHub with a reproducible case. As a workaround, you can enable this setting to prevent adding the zero-width-space and fixing the cursor position until we can address the bug.
- default: `false`
- still searching for a better way to do this and/or guarantee that a zero-width-space won't be left behind
## TODO
- [ ] merge comments and JSDoc nested inside JSDoc
- [ ] wrap single line selection in parens for casting
- [ ] test placement of selection anchor and active for multiline comments
- [ ] convert to block comment when cursor is anywhere within JSDoc
- [ ] convert multiple adjacent (or empty) line comments into a single JSDoc block
