Snippet Profiles - An Auto Complete Plugin To Increase Productivity!

FictionalWise · November 16, 2023, 2:01am

Snippet Profiles Is an autocomplete plugin that provides easier way to paste a block of code into your script aka. “Profile” with the ability to create custom profiles with the ability to customize the autocomplete prefix, Therefore, it facilitates the scripting process.

Every plugin feature will be shown below, If you’re interested you can take a look.

Overview

The idea of the plugin is pretty simple; When you're in a script, Type ! and the default profiles of plugins will be displayed which are:

Profiles
OOP
For
Variables
Services
Lorem

OOP: A profile which provides a class template with a constructor
For: A Profile which provides a for loop template
Variables: A profile which provides a bunch of mandatory variables
Services: A profile which provides bunch of necessary services
Lorem: A profile which provides Lorem ipsum paragraph.

Showcase:

Overwrite Variable

This feature allows you to overwrite a variable in a profile according to this syntax:

![Profile.Name]<Replacement>

Note: This feature is only available for the profile OOP and For

Note: For profile have got an new unique feature as you can add more than one overwrite-able variable, e.g.: !For<index, value, {1, 2, 3}>

Showcase:

Custom Profiles

If you aren't satisfied with the default profile which comes with the plugin then you have the ability to create your own custom profiles!

If you go to ServerStorage, You’ll find a folder named Profiles (DO NOT DELETE IT), This folder represents a container of all of your custom profiles that you need to add.

Firstly, you need to insert a ModuleScript and name it whatever you want (Syntax: ![Profile.Name])

Everything you’ll write inside this module will be the snippet.

Note: you can add a description for your profile by creating an attribute called “Description” which will appear as a description for the profile when you call it.

Note: Overwrite Variable is now added to Custom Profiles!, `(Condition: the variable that will be change must be called “x”)

Showcase:

Custom Prefix

Still not satisfied? Snippet Profiles allows you to change the default prefix ! to any prefix you want

If you go to Profiles Folder inside ServerStorage and click on it, You’ll find an attribute called Prefix and it’s value !, Change it to whatever you want.

Note: If you leave Prefix attribute empty (""), The plugin will stop working since there’s no prefix.

Showcase:

Profile Actions

Still not satisfied? Profile Actions is a list of actions you can enable to facilitate working with Snippet Profiles

Actions
Create Profile
Show Profiles
Change Prefix
Documentation

Create Profile: Creates a profile for you in the ServerStorage inside Profiles folder
Show Profiles: Selects the Profiles folder
Change Prefix: Selects the Profiles folder so you can change the prefix
Documentation: Redirects you to create.roblox.com

Note: How to enable enable Profile Actions Feature

You’ll need to bind the feature by going through this dir: File > Advanced > Customize Shortcuts > Profile Actions

You can bind this shortcut to whatever you want but Ctrl + P is the recommended option.

After applying these steps, Press OK and test it out!

Showcase:

Finally

Snippet Profiles is a great plugin for the community which will speed up the scripting process and fully-customizable for any favorite personal use; The plugin is paid (available in Roblox marketplace for 200 ), Many people may think that this plugin deserves to be free, What I need to say is I would’ve released it for free to target the whole community but one of the reasons I released this plugin to fund robux for my dream game as this plugin was only for my personal use. I’ve also added this plugin to itch.io for 10$ (as a donation) too.

You can also contact me via my personal discord itswise.

Sick plugin! Might save up for it!

VSCPlays · November 17, 2023, 1:28pm

I don’t know why there are tons of paid plugins for autofilling

I’d use Exestack in this case, It’s free and it does snippets well

FictionalWise · November 18, 2023, 3:55pm

Here’s the reason (for me)

(roblox character limit)

BrAlMeSo_Mc · November 18, 2023, 6:53pm

Don’t you think snippet profiles should be saved in the plugin, not the place file?
(some feedback*).

Pretty useful to be honest

FictionalWise · November 18, 2023, 6:57pm

Well, I tried as much as possible to avoid making this plugin using a DockWidgetPluginGui so I didn’t add this idea to my todo list despite the fact I thought about doing this before but it really requires a UI.

FictionalWise · November 18, 2023, 7:00pm

Forgot to mention if you have any UNIQUE plugin idea feel free to contact me in my discord itswise and illustrate the idea to me.

Thanks.

BrAlMeSo_Mc · November 18, 2023, 7:06pm

Then use game:GetService("CoreGui"), it’s for UI that you can see on the studio viewport.

FictionalWise · November 18, 2023, 7:07pm

What I meant to say that I avoided using any UI anyways DockWidgetPluginGui is only a widget that carries the ui inside it for plugin

BrAlMeSo_Mc · November 18, 2023, 7:10pm

then just make the folder archivable off and make them save with the plugin.
also name the folder as the username and save it to the user.

FictionalWise · November 18, 2023, 7:18pm

Well, Let’s imagine if you just downloaded the plugin for example and you installed it in a place called (e.g.) Place1 and you add a profile inside Profiles folder in ServerStorage then leave the place and you join another place called Place2 then the profiles you made in Place1 gets loaded then you decided to delete the profiles, then the user data will be {}, when you decide to go to Place1 again they’ll be re-assigned to {…} as when you make Place3 the profiles will be added again even tho you don’t want them again and if you join Place2 the data table will be deleted again.

Sorry for the confusion lol.

FictionalWise · November 18, 2023, 7:22pm

this will be bad too for people who has 2 profiles

BrAlMeSo_Mc · November 18, 2023, 7:23pm

yeah, also you can CTRL-C and CTRL-V(so profiles should be archivable)

FictionalWise · November 18, 2023, 7:25pm

Anyways thanks for this conversation, have a nice day bro!

(they’re already archivable btw)

so you would sell a plugin just to fund robux for your dream game? We make plugins to solve problems, not to make money, not for the sake of making plugins

FictionalWise · November 22, 2023, 4:26am

Sorry for not responding for 3 days. Well, If you take a look at Plugin Marketplace, You’ll find out that most of the plugins are paid that are meant to “Help the community”, All my respect to developers but if you wonder why this plugin is paid so you should take a better look at the marketplace because you’ll find out many plugins which they deserve to be worth nothing but the publishers of these plugins may have a various reasons for making it paid as I have mentioned the reason of making it paid as im not “Making money” to use it for myself. I could’ve used these robuxs for my personal use since my country banned the usage of debit to pay w/ any foreign currency or pay for a service/product in a foreign website/organization but I prefered to use it to fund my dream game as I’ve mentioned above that I’d have made this plugin for free to help the community but I have my reasons for this and I promise once I get a good fund and start making the game i’ll change this plugin from paid to free.

Thanks.

VSCPlays · November 22, 2023, 9:19am

At least you took longer than how long my exams took to write that, really appreciate the response

also You can do some other methods to gather robux, but this is okay to do so

FictionalWise · November 22, 2023, 1:51pm

Yea, I’m working on a portfolio for commissions too.

Thanks.

VSCPlays · November 22, 2023, 3:00pm

It also applies to my country as-well, so I can agree here

FictionalWise · November 22, 2023, 3:18pm

We can deeply to talk about this, you can add me in discord itswise
