Functions

1. Command Level snippet

The Command Level snippet is like <command> <snippet-name>. You can expand the snippet by hit TAB. This will replace the <snippet-name> with the <text> you defined. To define Command Level snippet, add the following inside hyper-snippet.js

module.exports = {
  ...
  // the command you want define snippet
  "<command>":{
    "<snippet-name>":"<text>" // the snippet name and the content
  }
  ...
}

2. Sub Command Level snippet

The Sub Command Level snippet is like <command> <sub-command> <snippet-name>. You can expand the snippet by hit TAB. This will replace the <snippet-name> with the <text> you defined. To define Sub Command level snippet, add the following inside hyper-snippet.js

module.exports = {
  ...
  // the command you want define snippet
  "<command>":{
    $subcmds:{
      "<sub-command>":"<text>"
    } 
  }
  ...
}

3. Variable you could use for snippet

You can use 2 variables #CLIP# and #END# inside the text.

3.1 `#CLIP#`

#CLIP# will replace the #CLIP# with the text inside your clipboard after you expand the snippet. Here is a sample for snippet which is useful to clone projet from git

// snippet definition
module.exports = {
  ...
  // the snippet to debug docker, when expand, the id of the docker container is from clipboard
  "git":{
    c:"clone #CLIP#"
  }
  ...
}

3.2 `#END#`

#END# indicate where your cursor will show after expanding the snippet Here is a sample for snippet which is useful to run docker container

// snippet definition
module.exports = {
  ...
  // the snippet to run docker container, when expand, the cursor move before the name of docker image, you can continue to add other options
  "docker":{
    rr:"run #END# #CLIP#"
  }
  ...
}
