DMOD Manifest Language Support

Syntax highlighting for DMOD Manifest (.dmm) files in Visual Studio Code.

Features

This extension provides syntax highlighting for DMOD manifest files, including:

• Comments: Lines starting with #
• Module entries: module@version url syntax
• Include directives: $include url for manifest inclusion
• Variable placeholders: <tools_name>, <arch_name>, <version>
• URLs: HTTP/HTTPS and file:// URLs

Manifest Format

DMOD manifest files (.dmm) define package modules with the following syntax:

# This is a comment

# Module with version
mymodule@1.0 https://registry.example.com/modules/mymodule.dmf

# Module without version (version provided at download time)
dmffs https://github.com/example/releases/download/v<version>/dmffs-<arch_name>.zip

# Include another manifest
$include https://registry.example.com/additional-manifest.dmm

# Local file reference
localmodule@2.0 /data/modules/localmodule.dmfc

Variable Placeholders

• <tools_name>: Replaced with the tools name (e.g., arch/armv7/cortex-m7)
• <arch_name>: Replaced with architecture name (e.g., armv7-cortex-m7)
• <version>: Replaced with the requested module version
