Changing MonoDevelop Encapsulation Template - monodevelop

Is it possible to change the template used by MonoDevelop when you right click a field in C# select Refactor -> Encapsulate Field?
I would like to change the default code that is inserted when this option is selected.

It's not a template, it's a method that constructs a property to match your code formatting settings.
What do you want to change? If it's something that should be influenced by code formatting settings, please file an enhancement bug.

PhpStorm generate template from code selection

I frequently use PhpStorm's Extract variable & method refactorings. Is there a way to add/extend functionality that could create a new template file from the selected code, prompt for desired template path, and create an include/require statement for that template?
I'm asking either for an entry point into coding this functionality, or extending existing functionality. Or maybe it's already available and I missed it.
As #Ástþór mentioned, there is no such way to change the refactoring templates.
You can use surround with live templates to emulate this behavior. This will not find duplicates and will not replace them as well, but may be it's close enough what you want.
Add a surround live template like this one. Open the editor with Ctrl+Alt+S:
Edit the variables in order to get a nicer UX:
Select the variable you want to extract and select Code > Surround with Live Templates from the menu or press Ctrl+Alt+J.
Adjust the templates to your needs.

How to change automatic variable generation in PhpStorm?

With PhpStorm, if you type function foo(MyClass $, it will propose myClass as the variable name.
But since I added a WordPress project (I accepted default settings for WordPress as proposed), it propose my_class instead.
I really would like to bring back the camel case naming by default, but I don't find where it is configured.
Is there an option for this? Or maybe a configuration file to edit?
In the settings (Ctrl+Alt+S), go to Editor > Code Style > PHP, then click the Other tab. At the bottom of the screen, you should see the Variable Naming Style section. Select camelCase.

Custom code snippet for WebStorm and PhpStorm

I use custom code snippet for Sublime Text like custom comments, function, reusable block code, CDN and more.. but I could not do that in WebStorm and PhpStorm IDE.
Here is my building block code snippet (comments) for Sublime Text:
/*============================
comments
============================*/
and this code blocks for HTML5 comments
<!-----------------------

Moreover I'm new user for JetBrains software. Can I use custom code snippet above in JetBrains software ?
It's called Live Templates in JetBrains IDEs.
Available at Settings/Preferences | Editor | Live Templates.
You can use existing Live Templates as is, alter them to your needs or create your own.
Creating own is better be done in own group -- they will be stored in separate config file so easier to share, no possible conflicts with built-in ones (easier to update between versions etc.). It also makes perfect sense to use separate group per language -- the same abbreviation can be used for different languages/context but abbreviation within the same group must be unique.
BTW -- I'd say -- do not edit built-ins at all -- just disable specific built-in template and create your own version of it in separate group. This way you can always see what fix/change devs have made in new IDE version etc.

Finally I get a tips ! PhpStorm allows you to create your own live templates (code snippets) to optimise your workflows.
Open the settings dialog and head into Editor | Live Templates, you can see the available live templates grouped by language. To add a new template click the + (plus) button and select Live Template. Specify the abbreviation (the short bit of text you type that will be expanded to the full code snippet) and a description.
Then provide the full code snippet in the Template text field. You can include variables in the template in the format $<variable name>$, which will allow you to provide values when the template is expanded. PhpStorm recognises $END$ as a special variable indicating the final position of the cursor after the template has been expanded and values have been provided for all variables.
Next click the Define warning text to specify which language the template is for and optionally the context it is available in.
Now the template is ready to be used. Open a file and type the abbreviation that was specified earlier, then hit Tab to expand the template. The cursor will be positioned on the first variable, provide a value then hit Tab to keep moving through all available variables. The final position of the cursor will be the location of the $END$ variable.

Creating & Editing Live Templates
I don't think you can do this, however you can add custom tags in Settings > Editor > TODO.
//TODO & //FIXME are already implemented.
But this custom tags are not working for HTML.
Maybe you can find an extension to do that in Settings > Plugins.

Format Code In MonoDevelop

I am using MonoDevelop on Mac to write MonoTouch apps. Automatica code indenting/formatting works great while I am typing.
The problem is that when I copy and paste code snippets, in many cases I lose the formatting and lines are combined together, indenting is lost, and it is a huge pain to implement the tabs, spacing, and line breaks manually. Is there anyway I can use a command in monoDevelop to automatically indent and apply the formatting to existing code.
I thought maybe Edit|Format|Format Document/Selection would work, but these commands don't have any affect on the code at all.
Any help?
To format the entire document in one keystroke: control-I
To format a selection: Edit->Format->Format Selection
To customize the formatting: MonoDevelop->Preferences->Source Code->Code Formatting
You actually need to select all your text, and then go to Edit->Format->Format Document. It doesn't seem to work otherwise.
For me on macOS, the shortcut for "auto-format" is CTRL + i.
You can change the shortcut if you want. To change it, go to Preferences -> Key Bindings, then type "format" in the search box and edit the "Format Document" shortcut/key binding.

Eclipse - how to extend HTML editor to add custom tags?

I write an application and inside of HTML code I have custom tags (of course these tags are parsed on server side and end user gets them as valid HTML code). Example of custom tag usage:
<html>
<body>
...
<Gallery type="grid" title="My Gallery" />
...
</body>
</html>
1.) How can I have eclipse recognize my custom tags inside of HTML code and add syntax highlighting to them?
2.) How can I add auto-suggestions to my custom tags? For example if I type "<Gallery " press "Ctrl+Space" - in the list of available attributes it shows me "type" and "title" and if I type "<Gallery type=" press "Ctrl+Space" I would see list of available values only for tag "Gallery" and its attribute "type".
Thanks in advance!
Not really what you want, but maybe it helps you:
You can try the Aptana Plug-in for Eclipse. It allows to write your own regular expression for HTML validation, so a custom tag would be ignored by the validator.
E.g.:
.gallery.
Eclipse allows you to add simple auto-suggestions via Templates. On
Eclipse 3.7.1 (Indigo) + PHP Dev Tools (PDT) 3.0.0: Window > Preferences > Web > HTML Files > Editor > Templates
Sadly, there is no easy way: you have to roll your own parser for this, and then add both your extra elements and the base grammar (HTML) to it.
If you have your parser, you could use it to do syntax highlighting (strictly speaking, for that simple lexing is enough); and a good parser can support content assist (auto-suggestions in your terminology).
Caveats:
Creating a parser for HTML is not an easy task. Maybe by aiming at a more often used subset is feasible.
If a parser exists, the editor parts are still hard to get well.
Some help on the other hand: you could use some text editor generators to ease your work:
Eclipse IMP http://www.eclipse.org/imp/ can in theory handle any type of parser, but currently it is most optimized for LPG. The documentation is scarce, but the developers are helpful in the forums.
Xtext http://www.eclipse.org/Xtext/ got quite a hype for creating text editors for DSLs. The generated editors are quite nice out of the box, but is not the best solution for large files. Has a really helpful developer community.
EMFText http://www.emftext.org/index.php/EMFText is a lesser known entity - I don't know it in details, but I guess, it is similar to Xtext.
I know its been a long time since this Q was asked,
but I hope this might help others like myself that reach this in search of a solution.
So, When using Eclipse (Mars.1 Release (4.5.1) - and possibly earlier - I did not check).
Go to Window - Prefrences
Then in the dialog that opens go to Web - HTML Files - Editor - Validation.
On the right side:
under Ignore specified element names in validation and enter the list of custom elements you use. (e.g. Gallery,tab,tabset,my-element-directives-*)
you might also like to go under Ignore specified attribute names in validation do the same for your custom attributes.(e.g. ng-*,my-attr-directives-*)
Two things to note:
After letting eclipse do a full validation you must also close the file and reopen it to have the warnings removed from the source code.
Using this method would ignore those attributes under any element. I don't think there is a simple way to tell it to ignore some-attribute only if its a child of some-element.
I find templates are an ok alternative but let's see if we can encourage a more robust solution; please take a moment and vote for this: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=422584
You need to add a new HTML template.To add a new template, complete the following steps:
1) From the Window menu, select Preferences.
2) In the Preferences page, select Web and XML > HTML Files > HTML Templates.
3) Click New.
4) Enter the new template name and a brief description of the template.
5) Using the Context drop-down list, specify the context in which the template is available.
6) In the Pattern field, enter the appropriate tags, attributes, or attribute values (the content of the template) to be inserted by content assist.
7) If you want to insert a variable, click the Variable button and select the variable to be inserted. For example, the word_selection variable indicates the word that is selected at the beginning of template insertion, and the cursor variable determines where the cursor will be after the template is inserted in the HTML document.
8) Click OK to save the new template.
You can edit, remove, import, or export a template by using the same Preferences page.
