ForgeLSP — VS Code Extension
Language support for ForgeScript inside JavaScript and TypeScript files, powered by the ForgeLSP language server.
Features
- Highlighting for
.forge files.
- Integration with ForgeLSP for diagnostics and completions.
- Searchable documentation for functions, enums, and events.
- Guides for common tasks.
Configuration
The extension uses forgeconfig.json for configuration.
Example forgeconfig.json:
{
"$schema": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EdexLabs/ForgeScript/main/forgeconfig.schema.json",
"extensions": [
"github:tryforge/forgescript#dev"
],
"custom_functions_path": "addPathHereRelativeToFile",
"custom_colors": ["#ff0000", "#00ff00", "#0000ff"],
"constant_custom_colors": true
}
The file is watched automatically — saving it restarts the server.

Binary Management

Every download is SHA-256 verified. Binaries are stored in VS Code's global storage directory.
A background update check runs 10 seconds after startup and prompts if a newer version is available.
