MetaDescription: How to modify Visual Studio Code User and Workspace Settings.

用户和工作区设置(User and Workspace Settings)

It’s easy to configure VS Code the way you want by editing the various setting files where you will find a great number of settings to play with.

很容易通过编辑各种设置文件来配置VS Code,你会发现许多有意思的设置。

VS Code provides two different scopes for settings:

VS Code 的设置分为两种作用域:

  • User these settings apply globally to any instance of VS Code you open
  • Workspace these settings are stored inside your workspace in a .vscode folder and only apply when the workspace is opened. Settings defined on this scope overwrite the user scope.

  • 用户设置 这些设置全局应用于您打开的任何VS Code 项目

  • 工作区设置 这些设置存储在工作区内的 .vscode 文件夹中,并且仅在打开的工作区适用。在此范围上定义的设置将覆盖用户范围的设置。

创建用户和工作区设置(Creating User and Workspace Settings)

The menu under File > Preferences provides entries to configure user and workspace settings. You are provided with a list of Default Settings. Copy any setting that you want to change to the related settings.json file.

文件>首选项 下的 菜单 提供用于配置用户和工作空间设置的选项。您将看到一个默认设置列表。将要更改的任何设置复制到相关的(右侧) settings.json 文件。

In the example below, we disabled line numbers in the editor and configured line wrapping to wrap automatically based on the size of the editor.

如下面的示例,我们在编辑器中禁用了 行号 ,并且配置换行为根据编辑器的大小自动换行。

Example Settings

Changes to settings are reloaded by VS Code after the modified settings.json file is saved.

保存修改的 settings.json 文件后,VS Code 将重新加载对设置的更改。

设置文件的位置(Settings File Locations)

Depending on your platform, the user settings file is located here:

根据您的操作系统,用户设置文件位于下面几处:

  • Windows %APPDATA%\Code\User\settings.json
  • Mac $HOME/Library/Application Support/Code/User/settings.json
  • Linux $HOME/.config/Code/User/settings.json

The workspace setting file is located under the .vscode folder in your project.

工作区设置文件位于项目中的 .vscode 文件夹下。

设置文件内容(Settings File Sections)

The settings.json file is divided into these sections:

settings.json 文件分为以下几个部分:

  • Editor Configuration - font, word wrapping, tab size, line numbers, indentation, …
  • Window Configuration - restore folders, zoom level, …
  • Files Configuration - excluded file filters, default encoding, trim trailing whitespace, …
  • File Explorer Configuration - encoding, WORKING FILES behavior, …
  • HTTP Configuration - proxy settings
  • Search Configuration - file exclude filters
  • Git Configuration - disable Git integration, auto fetch behavior
  • Telemetry Configuration - disable telemetry reporting, crash reporting
  • HTML Configuration - HTML format configuration
  • CSS Configuration - CSS linting configuration
  • JavaScript Configuration - Language specific settings
  • JSON Configuration - Schemas associated with certain JSON files
  • Markdown Preview Configuration - Add a custom CSS to the Markdown preview
  • Less Configuration - Control linting for Less
  • Sass Configuration - Control linting for Sass
  • TypeScript Configuration - Language specific settings
  • PHP Configuration - PHP linter configuration

默认设置(Default Settings)

Below is a copy of the default settings.json file.

下面是默认的 settings.json 文件的实例。

Tip: While in the settings.json file, press kb(workbench.action.gotoSymbol) to see an outline of all available settings and navigate through the file.

提示:settings.json 文件中,按 kb(workbench.action.gotoSymbol) 可查看所有可用设置的大纲,并浏览该文件。

Common Questions

Q: When does it make sense to use workspace settings?

A: If you’re using a workspace that needs custom settings but you don’t want to apply them to your other VS Code projects. A good example is language-specific linting rules.
