Why autocompletion would be amazing ?

[arthurkatz]

Hello all,

I think adding an autocompletion feature could be really cool. By autocompletion, I mean this atom package could suggest attributes for every components with or without default value.
We would code even faster our emails ! Amazing right ?

Is this feature on your roadmap ?
If no, who is willing to help me on this ?

Hey @arthurkatz,

I like the idea! So to make sure I understand correctly, when using mj-text for example, the tags generated would have all the attributes that are possible to use with it with default values and you would just have to replace them?

Hey @ngarnier,
I already did that for myself, I can push it for every one if you want.
Actually if I type "text-", hit tab then it will expand to :
<mj-text color="#000000" font-family="Ubuntu, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" font-size="13px" font-style="" font-weight="" line-height="22px" text-decoration="" text-transform="" align="left" container-background-color="" padding="10px 25px"></mj-text>

But what I was thinking about is you type "text" then expand hitting tab, you go inside the bracket hit something like "ctrl+space" and a dropdown would appear with all the attributes availables.

Thanks, I think the 2nd option is more suitable because expanding all the attributes with default values will be a problem for people using mj-attributes (mj-all, mj-class...) as it will override what they specified.

Didn't thought about that !
I'll start working on the second option and keep you updated ;)

Would something like atom/autocomplete-html work?

I love the functionality.

Also, getting greedy here but is it be possible to have a beautify button like in the online MJML editor.

I'm closing as this issue has been open for a long time, but feel free to submit a PR, it would be a great addition.
