ACS Schema Support

This VS Code extension provides YAML schema support for Agile Certificate Services (ACS) configuration files. It enables IntelliSense, validation, and autocompletion for the supported configuration files.

Features

Schema Validation: Automatic validation of ACS configuration files against their respective schemas
- *.certprofile.yml - X.509 certificate profile validation
- *.caprofile.yml - Certificate Authority profile validation
- *.keystore.yml - Keystore configuration validation
IntelliSense: Code completion and suggestions for configuration properties
Error Highlighting: Real-time validation with error messages for invalid configurations
Documentation: Hover tooltips with property descriptions and valid values

Supported Configuration Files

All configuration files must:

Use the naming pattern: <name>.<type>.yml
End with .yml (lowercase)
Have a name field matching the filename prefix
Use only these characters in names: a-z, A-Z, 0-9, -, _

Configuration Types

Type	Filename Pattern	Description
Certificate Profile	`<name>.certprofile.yml`	X.509 certificate profile with subject fields, extensions, validity periods
CA Profile	`<name>.caprofile.yml`	Certificate Authority profile configuration
Keystore	`<name>.keystore.yml`	Keystore configuration settings

Examples:

my-cert.certprofile.yml
root_ca.caprofile.yml
production_keystore.keystore.yml

Prerequisites

This extension requires the YAML extension by Red Hat, which will be installed automatically as a dependency.
