[Regression] Cloudformation Support

[17twenty]

Originally closed issue in #20 but it looks like Cloudformation support is no longer present.

This is with the following tags:

...
    "yaml.customTags": [
        "!Ref",
        "!GetAtt",
        "!FindInMap sequence",
        "!FindInMap scalar",
        "!GetAtt",
        "!GetAZs",
        "!Cidr",
        "!ImportValue",
        "!Join sequence",
        "!Select",
        "!Split",
        "!Sub sequence",
        "!Sub scalar",
        "!And",
        "!Equals",
        "!If",
        "!Not",
        "!Or"
    ]

What are the errors?

[17twenty]

unacceptable node kind for !<!FindInMap> tag; it should be "scalar", not "sequence"

[17twenty]

It also triggers follow on errors like missed comma between flow collection entries but that seems to be a knock on effect of the previous

[JPinkney]

It looks like instead of checking if the !FindInMap contains either scalar or sequence its looking like it is instead throwing an error when one one is found but not the other.

The sample above is from the AWS codepipeline tutorial here https://s3.amazonaws.com/cloudformation-examples/user-guide/continuous-deployment/wordpress-single-instance.zip

Hope that helps!

Any luck with fixing?
I have error

unknown tag <!Ref>

despite having

"yaml.customTags": [
        "!Ref",
        "!GetAtt",
        "!FindInMap sequence",
        "!FindInMap scalar",
        "!GetAtt",
        "!GetAZs",
        "!Cidr",
        "!ImportValue",
        "!Join sequence",
        "!Select",
        "!Split",
        "!Sub sequence",
        "!Sub scalar",
        "!And",
        "!Equals",
        "!If",
        "!Not",
        "!Or"
    ]

I have similar error for !Join:

unacceptable node kind for !<!Join> tag; it should be "scalar", not "sequence"

I had this issue too. Custom tags setup in user.settings, etc.

Removed cloudformation plugin
Removed rhel yaml plugin

Added in cloudformation plugin
(cloudformation plugin installed rhel yaml dependency)

Problem now (temporarily I assume!) resolved.

Still not working for me. This is the contents of my settings.json:
{ "workbench.startupEditor": "newUntitledFile", "git.enableSmartCommit": true, "window.zoomLevel": 0, "files.associations": {}, "yaml.customTags": [ "!Ref", "!GetAtt", "!FindInMap sequence", "!FindInMap scalar", "!GetAtt", "!GetAZs", "!Cidr", "!ImportValue", "!Join sequence", "!Select", "!Split", "!Sub sequence", "!Sub scalar", "!And", "!Equals", "!If", "!Not", "!Or"] }

Still get the error, unknown tag <!Equals>

Anyone have any luck resolving yet?
Tried reinstalling Cloudformation and YAML for RHEL plugin, no luck

This works for me, but if you are using scalar types with those you will have issues

    "yaml.customTags": [
        "!fn",
        "!And",
        "!If",
        "!Not",
        "!Equals",
        "!Or",
        "!FindInMap sequence",
        "!Base64",
        "!Cidr",
        "!Ref",
        "!Sub",
        "!GetAtt",
        "!GetAZs",
        "!ImportValue",
        "!Select",
        "!Split",
        "!Join sequence"
    ]

I resolved a similar issue by renaming my template to end with yaml extension. Same file throws errors with yml extension.

Is there a fix in the works for this? Have to disable validation make the editor usable:
"yaml.validate": false

[JPinkney]

Not currently. Would you like to contribute one? I can show you where to get started.
