I am searching for a way to create a certain file in a certain directory in my vscode project.
Preferred with a VScode command.
For example: A pre-configured default directory that automatically insert the created files with one command.
I found this previous post: VS Code - Add a new file under the selected working directory
But it does not address to create a file in a specific directory.
with the extension File Templates you can create an empty template with a given file path.
Create a template with the given content:
##@@## ~w/src/mylib/${input:File name:} With Ctrl+N you can select the template, enter the filename and the file will be created.
You have to create a separate template for each type of file extension.
Or you can create a template named: placed-file-mylib.txt
And as filename type: mylib.cpp
The file created is: mylib.cpp.txt
In the explorer edit the file name: Ctrl+0 F2
This VSCode extension works well: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=patbenatar.advanced-new-file
