vscode-elm-signature provides hoogle like functionality to your Elm projects. You can use it to search your codebase to search by function name, or type signature.

Features

Signatures overview

vscode-elm-signature keeps an up to date list of all of your Elm function signatures.

Filtering

vscode-elm-signature lets you filter signatures per function name, or type signature

Filtering can be done by clicking on the filter signatures item in the Tree view.

Note: To reset the filter, simply perform another search with an empty filter value

However, in short :

This extension is a first proof of concept and should NOT be considered ready for an exensive usage!
The implementation of the extension is currently very naive and requires much more processing than needed. It might also mean that the extension can hang on large projects
The current Elm parser is done using a regex, which means:
- Functions without signatures will not be detected
- Spaces in function signatures have to be respected to work properly. Respect elm-format conventions for good measure.
The UI is most likely to change in the future
