DeepSource for VSCode

DeepSource is a code health platform that helps developers systematically improve code quality and security and save time in code reviews.

Note: DeepSource VS Code Extension is in private beta. If you would like to use the extension, please request access here.

Getting Started

Once the extension is installed, click the DeepSource icon on the left sidebar. If you are a user on DeepSource Cloud, click ‘Connect to DeepSource’; if you’re on Enterprise Server, click ‘Connect to DeepSource Server’ and enter the host URL. VS Code will prompt you for authentication by redirecting you to a DeepSource page in the browser. Click ‘Approve’ and you’re good to go.

Note: If you face any issues with the authentication, please verify if

• Your account has DeepSource IDE add-on enabled. This is currently in private beta and you'd need to request for early access.
• You are logging in with the correct DeepSource account.

Run analysis

To run analysis on DeepSource, open a project in VS Code that is 1) a git repository, and 2) activated on DeepSource. If your repository is not activated, you’ll get a prompt to activate it in the sidebar.

Press Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + P and type ‘DeepSource’. You’ll be prompted with all options available. Click ‘Start analysis’ to trigger the first analysis.

For more information on the extension, please refer to the docs.
