Adding other languages

You can enable other languages yourself by doing the following:

{
  // VSCode settings ...

  "auto.languages": {
    // The key is the languageId for the language (see notes)
    "typescript": {
      // Symbol used for string interpolations in the language
      "symbol": "$",
      // Type of quotes that surround strings that can be interpolated in the language
      "stringWrapper": "`"
    },
    "ruby": {
      "symbol": "#",
      "stringWrapper": "\""
    }
  }
}

note that the key in the configuration object should be a languageId supported by VSCode

Then add the keybind for the language:

{
  // Keybindings ...

  {
    "command": "auto.addInterpolation",
    "key": "shift+3",
    "when": "editorTextFocus && editorLangId == 'YOUR_LANGUAGE_ID'"
  },
}

If you are a Vim mode user you should also add vim.mode != 'Normal' && vim.mode != 'Visual' && vim.mode != 'VisualBlock' && vim.mode != 'VisualLine' to your "when" clause
