TSD code sync

TSD (Tjenester for Sensitive Data) is a solution for researchers at the University of Oslo and other public research institutions.

This extension maintains a copy of your workspace inside TSD.

Features

Creates and updates a copy of your workspace inside your TSD project. Whenever you save, create, rename or delete files in your local VS Code, your changes are propagated into TSD.

Note: Make sure you create an import link without a secret challenge.

Requirements

A TSD import link without secret challenge. Use selfservice.tsd.usit.no to create one.

Exclude files from sync

Create a file .tsdsyncignore in your workspace folder to specify any files that should be ignored during sync. The file syntax follows gitignore.

Without .tsdsyncignore, the folder .vscode is ignored.

Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

• tsdSync.importUrl: The import link that will be used to copy the workspace into TSD

Known Issues

Currently, the following features are not supported:

• Uploading symbolic links
• Maintaining specific file permissions on uploaded files (for example executable flag)
• Deleting folders
• Creating empty folders
• Upload links with secret challenge

Development

Requirements: VS Code, node + npm

Clone this repo. Inside the folder, run npm install. Open the folder in VS Code. Then, inside the editor, press F5. This will compile and run the extension in a new Extension Development Host window.

In the new window, open a folder/workspace. Now you should see a button labled with "TSD" in the bottom bar.
