Xml Complete

This extension helps with editing XML files by providing hints. Sample schema files provided for XAML file types (WPF, Avalonia) and for csproj files.

It does not require any runtime like java, python or xmllint, while does partial XSD parsing.

Features

• Basic linter (XML + partial XSD validation)

• Fast autocomplete based on XSD (utilizes comments from XSD)

• Formatting XML (selected range or full document)

• Auto-closing and auto-rename for currently edited tag (works only for single tag in given line)

• Mouse hover documentation for xml nodes/attributes (utilizes comments from XSD)

• Go to definition support (using XSD as target)

  "xmlns": "https://github.com/avaloniaui",

xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rogalmic/vscode-xml-complete/master/test/Avalonia/AvaloniaXamlSchema.xsd"
/>

Supported URI protocols

Protocol	Description	Example
data	XSD encoded directly in link	data:text/plain;base64,SGVsbG8sIFdvcmxkIQ%3D%3D
file	XSD from local storage	file:///c:/windows/example.ini
ftp	XSD from ftp server	ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/site/README
http	XSD from http server	http://www.example.com/path/to/name
https	XSD from https server	https://www.example.com/path/to/name

XSD location URIs can be whitespace separated. Only absolute paths are fully supported, but when a plain filename is provided, the extension will search for schema next to local file for convenience.
