Inserting code with a keybinding in Visual Studio Code

Question

How can I insert code in Visual Studio Code for MacOS with key bindings? For example in Sublime I can insert a console.log like this:

{ 
  "keys": ["super+shift+l"],
  "command": "insert_snippet",
  "args": {
    "contents": "console.log('test:' + varname);${0}"
  }
},

If I press Cmd+Shift+L I get console.log('test:' + varname);

You can specify what the insertSnippet command should insert like this:

{
    "key": "cmd+shift+l",
    "command": "editor.action.insertSnippet",
    "args": {
       "snippet": "console.log('test:' + varname);${0}"
    }
}
