How to make Webstorm "Reformatting Source Code" to change double quotes to single quotes?
In Webstorm 2017.1, do the following:
- Go to File -> Settings | Preferences
- Choose Editor -> Code Style -> TypeScript
- Select 'Punctuation' tab
- Change:
Use 'double' quotes
toUse 'single' quotes
. (Additionally, you can change'in new code'
to'always'
)
there is no way to change this on auto-formatting in WebStorm 11; you can only use intentions here (hit Alt+Enter
on quoted string, choose 'Replace double-quoted string with single-quoted string'.
Note that in WebStorm 12 -2016.x it's possible to control the auto-generated quotes style (used for auto-imports, etc.) - Settings | Editor | Code Style | JavaScript | Other
, Generated code/Quote marks
.
Since 2017.1.*, it is Settings | Editor | Code Style | JavaScript | Punctuation
, Use <quote style> quotes in <new code/always>
This looks to be fixed with the 2016.2 release - there's now an option in the Editor --> Code Style settings where you can choose single/double quotes.
