Vscode-spell-checker: Managing Lorem Ipsum better

[Ne-Ne]

Hi All,

Great plugin, just want to throw the idea out of a possible new feature.

Problem

At the moment any lorem ipsum gets returned as an error. However I would like to ignore this, but still be reminded its presence in my file.

In my example below there are only 2 guinue errors in my file to address. I want to be aware that there are lorem ipsum in document (this could be behind a default flag showWarnings: true.)

I am suggesting a warning icon based on line number if the string / template literal contains any ipsum only, then grouping all the lorem instances.

Example

This is an example of when I want spell checker to catch some errors.

<div class="wrapper">
    <h1 class="heading">Heading</h1>

    <h2 class="intro">This is a defalt heading!</h2>

    <p>My listed data:</p>

    <ul class="list">
        <li class="list-item">Lorem ipsum dolor sit.</li>
        <li class="list-item">Atque soluta quis consequatur.</li>
        <li class="list-item">Beatae commodi nemo nisi.</li>
        <li class="list-item">Tempore nam neque pariatur.</li>
    </ul>

    <p>This is a paragrah test, that contains some text.</p>
</div>

Returning problems:

As you can see there are 3 sections in the middle. These are due to the lorem ipsum.

Solution

If there were just 3 lorem lines shows a warning state, you could save a lot of overhead in the problems tab. The end result would be a warning icon follow by the text:

Singular

Lorem Ipsumn - ${lorem_instance} is present. (Row, Column)

or

Multiple

Lorem Ipsumn - ${count} instances found. (Row, Column)

Thoughts?

Thank you for the feedback. I can see how this might be useful.

There are actually several feature requests in this ticket.

1. Lorem Ipsum support
2. Grouping of issue reporting
3. Multi-severity of issues

At the moment, extensions do not have a lot of control over how issues are reported, this is controlled by VS Code.

But Lorem Ipusm support is easy enough. The words just need to be added to a dictionary.

Hi everyone,

Since this issue was opened for a better managing of Lorem Ipsum and you did an update of the words into the cspell-dicts, this issue should be resolve.
But for I keep having lorem-ipsum errors and I don't understand why.

There we can see that lorem is activated with the right lorem version (1.0.4) which have the last words but are still not recognize.

So, I don't now if I have a bad configuration (if this is the case, this issues should be close) or if this is a bug from the vscode extension.

@rbalet It is not so obvious how to turn on the dictionary.
There are two ways:
Enable the language:

"cSpell.language": "en,lorem"

Enable the dictionary:

"cSpell.dictionaries": [
    "lorem-ipsum"
]

I'm struggling to get the lorem-ipsum to work - I've installed this extension and updated the settings.json as @Jason3S has suggested ... however certain words are still flagging up:

adipiscing
nullam
facilisis
metus
eleifend
varius
augue
vehicula
metus
tristique
...

Is there just a certain subset of lorem ipsum you support?

[Jason3S]

The list of words is found here: cspell-dicts: lorem-ipsum/dictionary.txt

Please feel free to do a pull request with new words if you think they apply.

I was looking for that information and found the solution working. Only one word was not recognized ("adipisci", which should be "adipisici", according to wikipedia).

So, I think this issue can be closed. Thanks a lot for creating this very useful extension!

I've just checked v1.9.4 which seems to have the list of words I added to the dictionary and doesn't highlight any of the words mentioned in this issue so I agree that it should be closed 🙂

[Jason3S]

@mike-lischke, you have to enable the dictionary. See https://github.com/streetsidesoftware/cspell-dicts/pull/214#issuecomment-730623538

I know, Jason, how could I know it works otherwise ;-)
