Source code for mnemonic template generators for ReSharper and IDEA
Mnemonics are templates for ReSharper and IntelliJ that let you quickly generate code and data structures by typing in names which are based on mnemonics - a structured abbreviation of the code you're trying to create.
For example, in C#, typing c
and pressing Tab creates something like this:
public class MyClass
{
|
}
The vertical bar above indicates where the caret will end up once you're done editing the name of the class.
Similarly, C
will create a static class, m
creates a method, M
creates a static method, and so on, including fields, variables, properties and more. You can then extend this to include the return type of the method:
mf
- generates a method that returns float
ms
- a method that returns string
m~s
- a method that returns an IEnumerable<string>
This extends to more complex examples such as:
pgh.sb
- a property with only a getter, of type HashSet<StringBuilder>
Please take a look through the templates in ReSharper or IntelliJ to see the full list. Note that currently the shortcuts that include a period (.
) do not work, and are unlikely to work in the future.
The project aims to support the following languages - currently supported ones are in bold:
Installing mnemonics is simple.
