In Visual Studio code, how do I search for just a specific file type (i.e. *.css or *.ts)?
PS: I'm talking about the global search (Ctrl+Shift+F in Windows)
I'm already using the "files to include" as a folder filter. So currently it has something like ./src/app.
Click the ellipses on the bottom right to display the "files to include" field.
You can specify a particular type with "*.filetype".
E.g.
*.js file in my folder. I don't want to and cannot search for a certain content.You can do this.
./src/app/**/*.ts
other glob syntax
* to match one or more characters in a path segment? to match on one character in a path segment** to match any number of path segments, including none{} to group conditions (for example {**/*.html,**/*.txt} matches
all HTML and text files)[] to declare a range of characters to match (example.[0-9] to
match on example.0, example.1, …)
*.css, *.ts, *.js, *.html
Press Ctrl + shift + F, which opens a window where you can search for a specific file type.
You can use the file search option (ctrl+p), then copy the subfolder relative path in the project, followed by the pattern to search the files. For example:
subfolder_path/*.hpp
In the provided list, you can open each one by using the right click ... unfortunatelly I did not find a way to store the list somehow.
