Composing commands in VSCode?

Question

It's a really common use case for me to copy-and-paste some JSON string in a new VSCode buffer, and wanting to see it pretty-printed.

So it's a really common thing for me to change the new buffer's Language Mode to JSON (CMD+Shift+O, type "Language" for Change Language Mode command, type JSON + Enter), then Format Document (CMD+Shift+O, format, Enter).

I'd like to set a new function/shortcut that makes all of that at once. Is there an easy way to do that without writing a whole extension?

Probably not: Expose change language command, Chaining commands — Alex

Not as of VS Code 1.29. You need to use one of the extensions.

This issue tracks built-in support for chaining commands
