Recently switched to VSCode and looking for an extension that will look at all open files when suggesting auto-completions. For example, say I have an HTML doc and a JavaScript file open. As I'm typing in JavaScript I'd like auto-complete suggestions from, say, the id values in the HTML tags.
I've done some searching in the marketplace, but haven't found anything. Anyone know if it exists?

I actually never tried :D

Adobe just slapped me with horrible news saying they will end support for the Brackets Editor and we need to switch to VS Code.
I wasted an hour already just to have auto-closing of tags to work.
Here is a video explaining exactly what I want.

I want to be able to have auto-close work for HTML elements in a PHP file like it does without issue on Adobe Brackets.
VS Code has a lot of extension for this kind of need. I personally use HTML Snippets.
Just navigate to extensions tab, search HTML Snippets then click install.
Please check this link for your reference. You can find some extension which could cater your needs.
I tried Intelephense and dozens of other extensions and settings but NONE of them achieved what I'm after. What I prioritize is automatic tag close and automatic indent... most of others VSC functionalities for HTML would be great too, like css classes or files paths suggestions, but what I really need is this 'basic' automatic format...
I'm sorry for this question, I know it's been done and answered before, it's just that I can't get my VSC to correctly work with HTML when mixed with PHP, and I've been trying for months now... Read everything I've found on Google, searched about it here and on Reddit, but wasn't able to reproduce any of the solutions, or better saying, none of them worked for me.
Could anyone give me some guidance?
Luckily I felt the same way as you so I just decided to go ahead and hammer out a solution to this very annoying problem with a VScode extension that doesn't register itself as a "formatting" extension I format the HTML onBeforeSave so you can still register a PHP formatting extension so between the two it gets the whole file. I use js-beautify so you can just use all the native HTML formatting settings in VSCode already.
Format HTML in PHP on the VSCode Extension Marketplace.
I am exploring vscode after using atom for a long while. One of the things I'm missing is an equivalent of the lovely package advanced-open-file. Is there something similar to this in vscode?
I found the advanced-new-file extension, but it is only helpful when it comes to new files. I would like to be able to quickly open files from all over my local files (not only the workspace).
Edit: I found the option of workbench.action.quickOpen; but it doesn't allow opening files from the whole file system.
Sorry, but currently the answer is no. The problem is that input box doesn't provide a way to listen to key events:
GitHub issue,
so even the extensions can't do that currently. Here's the comment from advanced-new-file extension creator:
Because VSCode extensions don't yet have the ability to do type-ahead autocomplete within the text input box (See https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/426), we work around this limitation and provide autocomplete using a two-step workflow of selecting existing path, then providing new filename/path relative to the selection.
The good news is that there is a new API addressing this issue, but it's currently in 'proposed' state and can't be used for published extensions.
One workaround could be typing code -r some/path in integrated terminal and using 'tab' for autocomplete.
The Fuzzy search extension seems to work for me.
It adds a new action to the command palette which allows you to search for files in the current project and open them.
I have written a validator for my vscode extension, which uses a DiagnosticCollection to set errors for files. This works and the errors are shown when a file is opened.
I would now like to mark files in the explorer, so that it is easy to find files with errors. Here is an example]of how it looks in Eclipse:
Is it possible to do this in a vscode extension? Is there already an extension doing this?
Unfortunately, you can't do that.
There is an open issue asking something related to Git, but not as open as you want. Maybe using the API described in this another issue you could create a new panel with the marked files.
It is still experimental, BTW...
Hey I have to link a file in my html like this:
And I'm trying real hard to autocomplete the file link, for eg: if I type this:
stylesheets/s
or something it should suggest me style.css or anything similar. How do I achieve that, in webstorm phpstorm I've encountered this autocomplete feature which allows me to browse the files and also assures me that the link I'm typing is correct, please let me know if there is a way to do that or should I revert back to some other IDE.
I would suggest that you checkout the following package for Sublime:
