VSCode add parentheses when autocompleting functions

Question

Is is possible to tweak VSCode so that when function gets autocompleted, it is written with () instead of just plain function name?

For example when I type str and autocomplete to strlen I would like to get strlen(), it saves quite some time.

Answer 1

It can be solved by ticking javascript.suggest.completeFunctionCalls property up. Run code snippet to see the gif.

<div style='position:relative; padding-bottom:calc(40.34% + 44px)'><iframe src='https://gfycat.com/ifr/CleverActualHornbill' frameborder='0' scrolling='no' width='100%' height='100%' style='position:absolute;top:0;left:0;' allowfullscreen></iframe></div>

Answer 2

For Python when using the Python extension the relevant setting is:

python.autocomplete.addBrackets
