Vs Code Move To Next Line On Run Ctrl + Enter

I'm new to VS Code and running code into the python interactive window using Ctrl + enter. I would like the cursor to move to the next line automatically so I can go through the co

Solution 1:

As explained in this blog post, here is how you can make VS Code run code selections using Ctrl + enter and move to next line:

################################ 1. Install extension "macros" in Visual Code## Hit View on top menu# Search for extension named "macros" (by geddski)# Install "macros" extension################################################################ 2. Add code below to keybindings.json## Hit <Crtl> + <Shift> + <P># Enter in search bar: JSON# Select Open keyboard shortcuts################################

{
        "key": "ctrl+enter",
        "command": "macros.pythonExecSelectionAndCursorDown",
        "when": "editorTextFocus && editorLangId == 'python'"
    }


################################ 3. Add code below to settings.json## Hit <Crtl> + <Shift> + <P># Enter in search bar: JSON# Select Open settings ################################"macros": {  // Note: this requires macros extension by publisher:"geddski""pythonExecSelectionAndCursorDown": [
            "python.execSelectionInTerminal", 
            "cursorDown" 
        ]
    }

Solution 2:

The framework suggested by P.Marres works for me on the "run and down" part, but it sends commands to the terminal. The below setting helped me to run a .py file "line and down" in the interactive window.

prerequisite:

• The macros extension by publisher:"geddski"
• The Jupyter extension (installed by default with the Python extension, replacing the older python.datascience)

In keybindings.json, include:

[{"key":"ctrl+enter","command":"macros.pythonExecSelectionAndCursorDown","when":"editorTextFocus && editorLangId == 'python'"},{"key":"ctrl+enter","command":"macros.jupyterExeSelThenCursorDown","when":"editorTextFocus && isWorkspaceTrusted && jupyter.ownsSelection && !findInputFocussed && !notebookEditorFocused && !replaceInputFocussed && editorLangId == 'python'"},{"key":"ctrl+enter","command":"macros.pythonExecSelectionAndCursorDown","when":"editorTextFocus && !findInputFocussed && !jupyter.ownsSelection && !notebookEditorFocused && !replaceInputFocussed && editorLangId == 'python'"},{"key":"ctrl+enter","command":"macros.jupyterRunCellThenCursorDown","when":"editorTextFocus && isWorkspaceTrusted && jupyter.hascodecells && !editorHasSelection && !notebookEditorFocused"},{"key":"ctrl+enter","command":"macros.interactiveExe","when":"resourceScheme == 'vscode-interactive'"}]

In settings.json include:

"macros":{"pythonExecSelectionAndCursorDown":["python.execSelectionInTerminal","cursorDown"],"jupyterExeSelThenCursorDown":["jupyter.execSelectionInteractive","cursorDown"],"jupyterRunCellThenCursorDown":["jupyter.runcurrentcelladvance","cursorDown"],"interactiveExe":["interactive.execute","cursorDown"]}

Solution 3:

The answer above by P.Marres showing this blog post's code was great! I needed this for the windows subsystem in linux.

Here is how you would do it for the Windows Subsystem for Linux in Visual Studio Code:

################################ 1. Install extension "macros" in Visual Code## Hit View on top menu# Search for extension named "macros" (by geddski)# Install "macros" extension################################################################ 2. Add code below to keybindings.json## Hit <Crtl> + <Shift> + <P># Enter in search bar: JSON# Select Open keyboard shortcuts################################

{
        "key": "ctrl+enter",
        "command": "macros.ExecSelectionAndCursorDown",
    }


################################ 3. Add code below to settings.json## Hit <Crtl> + <Shift> + <P># Enter in search bar: JSON# Select Open settings ################################"macros": {  // Note: this requires macros extension by publisher:"geddski""ExecSelectionAndCursorDown": [
                "workbench.action.terminal.runSelectedText", 
                "cursorDown" 
            ]
        }
