Supported Docsets

This plugin supports almost all docset configuration based on Dash Mapping

Language to docset matching

This plugin supports language to docset mapping.

For other languages that are not supported by default in VS Code, you probably need to install language plugins first in order to allow VS Code to detect the language.

File name to docset matching

This plugin also supports file name matching to docset, this is useful to target docset for any specific file name such as docker.yml or vagrantfile.

NOTE: You can use glob pattern to define the file name

File Name | Dash Docset Keys | Docset Setting

[dD]ocker* | docker | dash.fileNameToDocsetMap["docker.yml"] vagrantfile | vagrant | dash.fileNameToDocsetMap["vagrantfile"] gruntfile.js | grunt | dash.fileNameToDocsetMap["gruntfile.js"] gulpfile.js | gulp | dash.fileNameToDocsetMap["gulpfile.js"] *.ino | arduino | dash.fileNameToDocsetMap["*.ino"]

What is Dash Docset Keys?

You can find dash docset key in Dash application.

Change Docset Configuration

You can change docset in settings.json or pressing cmd + ,. Every configuration start with dash.docset. See Docset Setting column in Supported Docset table above.

Example Case:

Based on default docset configuration, if we search in typescript files (.ts), it will search in typescript docset. But now we want to make it able to search in javascript docset too.…
