JavaScript templates

Method calls

The simplest template to search for method calls is $Instance$.$MethodCall$($Arguments$).

Search template for method calls

The Find tool window shows the detected method calls.

Search results in the Find tool window

If you need to locate a method call with the specific number of arguments, position the caret at the $Arguments$ variable and configure the Count filter for it.

The list of search results in the Find tool window shrinks.

To navigate to the method call in the source code, double-click it in the Find tool window. GoLand opens the corresponding file in the editor and positions the caret at the method call.

Structural search: jump to source

The source code with the detected method calls are also shown in the right-hand pane of the Find tool window.

JavaScript and Typescript classes

If you have a JavaScript or Typescript class MyClass:

class MyClass {}

Then the simplest template to search for it is class $name$ {}.

Structural search for classes

Implementations of interfaces

If you have a JavaScript or Typescript interface MyInterface and a class Implementation that implements it:

class Implementation implements MyInterface{}

Then the simplest template to search for the implementation is class $Class$ implements $SomeInterface$ {}

Descendant classes

If you have a JavaScript or Typescript class Parent and a class Descendant that extends it:

class Descendant extends Parent{}

Then the simplest template to search for Descendant is class $Class$ extends $AnotherClass$ {}

Statements

The simplest template to search for if statements is if($var$){$code$}

As a result, the detected occurrences will be shown in the Find tool window, double-click the one you are interested in to navigate to the source code. GoLand opens the corresponding file in the editor and positions the caret at the statement.

Structural search if statement

Comments and string literals

The simplest template to find comments or literals containing SomethingWeWantToFind is: $SomethingWeWantToFind$ or "$SomethingWeWantToFind$". To find comments/strings containing some particular words (say, SomethingWeWantToFind as a word), this should be specified as a text constraint.
