Bracket notation

File name

If you want to add the file name at the beginning of the path, you can set the copy-json-path.includeFileName setting to true.

Quotes

When you use the bracket notation the key is surrounded by quotes. With the copy-json-path.quote setting you can choose the type of quotes to use Single or Double. The default value is Double.

Output

If you want to change the output format, you can change the copy-json-path.output setting.

The default output is only the json path represented by the %PATH% variable.

For example, you can change it as follows:

and the result in your clipboard will be : <TMPL_VAR NAME="path.to.key">
