Extension is auto-closing generic type parameters in TypeScript

Hi @ChuckkNorris , you could set the languages that the auto-close-tag will be activated,
In VS Code, File->Preferences->User Settings, to open the settings.json. Then add config like below:

{
    "auto-close-tag.activationOnLanguage": [
        "javascript",
        "javascriptreact",
        "html",
        "xml",
        "php"
    ]
}

Refer to this for the full list of Language Identifiers.
Let me know if this works for you.

So if I want auto-close-tag on jsx DOM tags but at the same time, deactivate it when closing generic typescript types. simply can't I? @formulahendry

thanks in advance.

All I want for Christmas is a setting to enable this for .tsx files but not for .ts files

[ChuckkNorris]

Exactly what I was looking for - thanks for the help.
I'll read the docs more carefully next time.

what @lucascyrne brings up is exactly how I landed here from google.

The issue is not closed. When writing angular code I want to get auto close in templates, but not in the typescript block of the same file.

when file type is "typescriptreact"

the extension could only activate autoclosing if inside a return statement

of course it's not a perfect fix, since JSX may be in a variable or non-return statement

... but it would be good enough !
