VSCode: How to make Beautify and Emmet run on .tpl files (Smarty)?

Question

I'm working on an old project on VSCode, and I found out that the html formatter and emmet syntax isn't working for .tpl (Smarty templating engine) files.

It's inconveniencing my workflow, and unfortunately I don't see any extensions in the marketplace for exactly this. I am quite happy to find out how to make extensions (specifically Beautify and Emmet) run on other weird file formats.

You can add this on your settings.json.

"emmet.syntaxProfiles": {
    "smarty": "html"
},
"emmet.triggerExpansionOnTab": true,
"beautify.language": {
    "html": [
        "smarty"
    ]
}

Add to use .tpl instead of "smarty" and then works fine – user1620090 Apr 29 '21 at 13:41

In your settings.json, add for emmet :

"emmet.includeLanguages": {
  "smarty": "html"
},
