A snippet pack to make you more productive working with Sails and the Boring JavaScript Stack

MantaSails README

MantaSails is a Sails snippet tool for vscode. It is efficient and fun to make use of. It enables a faster workflow for devs using Sails. It has been tested and I am sure it would help become more productive.

mantasails's Issues

Fix 'createEach' snippet

The objects for createEach snippet should be in an array.

[{ }, { }, { }]

Create snippets for associations

You can head over to the Sails docs to see how associations work, then follow the pattern as others to see how you can create a snippet for associations

Here's a link:
https://sailsjs.com/documentation/concepts/models-and-orm/associations

Feel free to work on as many associations as you can

Fix checkbox and link to contributors [README.md]

Fix string attribute

The snippet for string attribute is messy.

Needs cross-checking.

Fix typo error

Type error when updating multiple records.

Currently,

update a records

Fix,

update records

Make a decision

Henceforth, should we use record or object

For example,

create a record

or

create an object

remove isString from `sattr`

Adding isString field is not necessary to a string attribute.

Also, set a default value for maxLength

fix `string input`

String input should have default type

Update README

Things to update

• Each task as it is closed
• Add contributors list to README

Add validations to attributes

Cross check all the available attributes and see which is missing a validation.

Here's a link:
https://sailsjs.com/documentation/concepts/models-and-orm/validations#validations

You can also add a new snippet for email attributes, It can look like this: [sattre, sae]

Should be fun right?

Change 'default' to 'defaultsTo'

Locate [sinput, si], then change:

default

To:

defaultsTo
