vscode-flow-ide

An alternative Flowtype extension for Visual Studio Code. Flowtype is a static type checker meant to find errors in Javascript programs.

Features

Autocomplete & diagnostics

Show types on hover

3. Parameter hints

4. Inline flow type coverage Open command pallete(CTRL+SHIFT+P) -> Toggle flow coverage: you will see an inline display of the code covered by Flow.

Requirements

• Have a .flowconfig file in project root
• Make sure you gave NodeJS in path
• Make sure you have Flow installed globally or locally. We recommnend using flow-bin NPM package.
• If you get the error 'types' can only be used in a .ts file, please set javascript.validate.enable option to false.

Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

• flowide.enable: enable/disable this extension
• flowide.pathToFlow: Absolute path to the Flow executable. Set it only if the default behaviour of the extension doesn't work out for you. The extension will try first to read it from local node_modules/flow-bin or globally if not otherwise set here.
• flowide.useCodeSnippetsOnFunctionSuggest - Add the function paramters when selecting a function to autocomple.

Known Issues

• Parameter hints are not highlighted as the user types.
