PS v6 approved verb highlighting

[Akaizoku]

The list of approved verb has been updated in PowerShell v6 to include the following verbs:

Verb (alias)	Action	Comments
Build (bd)	Creates an artifact (usually a binary or document) out of some set of input files (usually source code or declarative documents)	This verb was added in PowerShell v6
Deploy(dp)	Sends an application, website, or solution to a remote target[s] in such a way that a consumer of that solution can access it after deployment is complete	This verb was added in PowerShell v6

Could it be possible to add highlighting for those new verbs?

$foo = Build-Foo
$foo = Deploy-Foo
$foo = Get-Foo

@Akaizoku those verbs should have syntax highlighting (see my addition to your question). Are you seeing otherwise? If so, can you share a screenshot or something?

@tylerl0706 I can see it properly highlighted here, but not on Atom which is using the language-powershell package.

On the package repository it is written:

If you discover any issues with the way the syntax is highlighted, please open an issue against the PowerShell/EditorSyntax repository instead of this one, since this package is based on that grammar.

This is the reason I opened the issue here.

Since that's the case, you should open an issue on that project and let them know that they need to update to the latest version of this grammar. Since we fixed this issue already.

I'm guessing that all they will need to do is snap a new release with the updated grammar.

Unfortunately, we have no control of that project to update it.

it's cool to see a community member working on Atom support 🙂
