The object.nested method registers a completion item provider for nested object properties.

Parameters

• items (ObjectNestedCompletionItems): The items to be used for completion suggestions.
• options (NestedOptions, optional): Additional options for the completion provider.

Example

import * as monaco from 'monaco-editor';
import {object} from 'monaco-intellisense';

const editor = monaco.editor.create(document.getElementById('editor'), {
  value: '',
  language: 'javascript',
});

const objectIntellisense = object(monaco).nested(
  {
    user: {
      name: 'John Doe',
      age: 30,
      address: {
        street: '123 Main St',
        city: 'Anytown',
        zip: '12345',
      },
    },
    settings: {
      theme: 'dark',
      notifications: true,
    },
  },
  {
    templateExpressionDelimiters: ['{{', '}}'],
  },
);

editor.onDidDispose(() => {
  objectIntellisense.dispose();
});

Options

The object.nested method accepts an optional options parameter to configure the nested completion provider. The available options are:

• templateExpressionDelimiters (string[]): Delimiters used to trigger completion suggestions within template expressions.
  • Example: ["{{", "}}"]
  • This will allow to show completions even when the cursor is inside the {{}}.
• maxDepth (number): Maximum depth to traverse when generating completion suggestions.
  • Default: Infinity
• excludePrototype (boolean): Whether to exclude prototype properties from completion suggestions.
  • Default: true
