Can you customize code folding?

问题

Is it possible to customize the way code folding works in Visual Studio Code?

I use a common pattern of defining regions of code across a variety of different document types.

• So, for XML I wrap sections of text with <!-- #region --> and <!-- #endregion -->

• For c#, I use #region to #endregion,

• For TypeScript/Javascript, I use /* #region */ and /* #endregion */.

In full Visual Studio (not VS Code), I have a custom extension which snoops for the pattern across document types, and creates folds based on that, allowing me to create neat, custom document outlines. I'd like to use the same pattern in Visual Studio Code. Is it possible to create a custom VS Code extension which detects these comment patterns, and somehow tags folds based on the patterns?

FoldingRangeProvider can be used if you are looking to contribute custom folding logic in an extension.

Be sure to set your VS Code version in engines in package.json to 1.23, the version that introduced this.

Here's how you'd use one.

export function activate(context: ExtensionContext) {
    languages.registerFoldingRangeProvider({ scheme: 'file', language: 'markdown' }, new MyFoldingRangeProvider());
}

class MyFoldingRangeProvider implements FoldingRangeProvider {
    provideFoldingRanges(document: TextDocument, context: FoldingContext, token: CancellationToken): FoldingRange[] {
        return detectRanges().map(({ lineStart, lineEnd }) => new FoldingRange(lineStart, lineEnd));
    }
}

Unfortunately, not at the moment. There is a an open issue in github for this very topic.
