One of the most creative names for a real life reloading project between Touch Designer and VS Code .. Ladies and Gentleman... TD Completes Me!
https://github.com/picturesbyrobots/td-completes-me
Hello! I'm sharing an asset I've been working on for the past six months called TD-Completes-Me. It's a simple combo vscode extension and tox that attempts to bring auto-complete functionality to DAT editing via MS VSCode. Under the hood it runs a shim extension that implements the Language Server Protocal that talks via TCP to a TD extension comprised of a series of hacked together regular expressions and an ever growing number of list comprehesions.
It's named after my favourite plugin for VIM. YouCompleteMe
FEATURES
op('') provides a list of operator names relative to the curent text DAT being edited
get completions for CHOP channel names and DAT rows and cols!
parameter auto completion. get a list of availabe parameters by typing op('moviefilein1').par.
self.ownerComp is respected (as long as it's called ownerComp)
completions for custom extension and TD provided operator methods and members
completions for global operator shortcuts
support for me.parent() and op('../') methods
Check out the repo for more screenshots and installation instructions!

A Simple Auto Completion Engine for Touch Designer
TD Completes Me
What is this?
This is a combo TOX/VSCode extension that leverages the Language Server protocol to send a list of context sensitive auto-completion items to Microsoft's Visual Studio Code.
What problem does this solve?
Creating extensive python scripts in Touch Designer can often be time consuming. We can use external editors like Sublime Text and VsCode but many of the features that make these tools beloved among traditional developers are not available to the Touch Designer programmer. This tool attempts to make editing the python scripts associated with Touch Designer projects a little more fluid and hopefully a little more joyful by implementing a (partial) autocompletion engine specific to the idioms of TD.
