Live autocomplete in Codemirror

Question

It seems that Codemirror plugin show-hint is activated by shortcut. I need to implement live autocomplete functionality, i.e. show hints after user entered first letters of keyword. Is there a way to do this with Codemirror?

Answer 1

Yes, there is a way to do this with CodeMirror. You can see the description of the addon for this here. CodeMirror offers the hint/show-hint.js addon that allows you to display hints when a keyboard short-cut is used.

You can find additional information on adding hints in this StackOverflow question as well.
