Visual Studio Code extension for visa-assembly

https://github.com/mbarbin/bopkit/tree/main/project/visa/editor/vscode

This directory defines a basic vs code extension for visa-assembly, to support syntax highlighting, snippets completion and auto-format.

note

This is experimental and hasn't been tested much at the moment.

Install​

It should be enough to copy the files to your local vscode extensions path and restart vscode.

Auto-formatting​

Currently the way we've set up auto-formatting for visa-assembly files in vscode is through a third party extension that allows you to configure external formatting commands and associate them with languages id (same as with bopkit).

The extension in question is this one:

After installing the bopkit extension, we've configured custom-format with the following lines:

"custom-format.formatters": [
    {
        // Whatever language id you need to format
        "language": "visa-assembly",
        // The command that will be run to format files with the language id specified above
        // $FILE is replaced with the path of the file to be formatted
        "command": "visa fmt file $FILE --read-contents-from-stdin"
    }
]
