Sort order of autocomplete snippet items

[nycdotnet]

Do we have any control over autocomplete sorting? If so, I think that properties should be prioritized over autocompletes after a dot.

For example, in this screenshot I typed .fi. When I hit tab, I would expect .files to autocomplete, but as you can see in the screenshot, the fix template is the default when I hit tab.

Possibly related to #141.

Yes. Code is here :

atom-typescript/lib/main/atom/autoCompleteProvider.ts

Lines 228 to 239 in e0e603e

	// see if we have a snippet for this prefix
	if (tsSnipPrefixLookup[options.prefix]) {
	// you only get the snippet suggested after you have typed
	// the full trigger word/ prefex
	// and then it replaces a keyword/match that might also be present, e.g. "class"
	let suggestion: autocompleteplus.Suggestion = {
	snippet: tsSnipPrefixLookup[options.prefix].body,
	replacementPrefix: options.prefix,
	rightLabelHTML: "snippet: " + options.prefix,
	type: 'snippet'
	};
	suggestions.unshift(suggestion);

We put all snippets before code completions ... in hindsight probably a bad choice :) ...

Decent fix : just change unshift to push 🌹

Hi I tried to change it where you proposed but no chnage. I guess I'll just wait for your official patch ;) Thanks.

Any idea when this is going to hit the release? At least 20 times per day I wish it was already there ;)

@tomitrescak Thanks for your patience (especially with #611 which is also fixed now). So your reward is that this is fixed with https://github.com/TypeStrong/atom-typescript/releases/tag/v7.1.1 🌹
