🍃 Code Facet Generator
Dynamic facet-based code generator for multiple languages and frameworks.
🎥 Demo
📖 What is Code Facet Generator?
Code Facet Generator is a VS Code extension (or CLI tool) that generates ready-to-use configuration files for virtually any language, framework, or tool in your project.
No more googling "spring boot application.yml example" or "next.config.js boilerplate". Just pick your language, framework, and version — and get a production-ready config file instantly.
✨ Features
- 🎯 327+ ready-to-use configuration templates across 32 categories
- 🌍 Multi-language support — Java, JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, C#, PHP, Ruby, and many more
- 📦 Multi-version support — each tool has multiple version-specific templates
- ⚡ Instant generation — select, click, done
- 🎨 Beautiful VS Code integration with TreeView, StatusBar, and Command Palette
- 🔧 Fully configurable via
info.json — add your own templates easily
- 🧩 Modular architecture — each facet is a standalone TypeScript file

🔧 How It Works
- Load — Extension reads
info.json on startup
- Display — TreeView shows all categories and facets
- Select — Click a facet, pick a version
- Generate — File is created at the correct path with boilerplate content
- Done! — Ready to use in your project
Example: Generating a pom.xml
- Click: Java → Maven → 4.0
- Generated: ./pom.xml
Example: Generating an application.yml
- Click: Java → Spring Boot → 3.2
- Generated: ./src/main/resources/application.yml
🎨 VS Code Integration
- 📁 TreeView — Browse all facets in the sidebar
- ⚡ Command Palette —
Ctrl+Shift+P → "Generate Facet"
- 📊 StatusBar — Quick access to recent facets
- 🔍 Search — Filter facets by name or language
🛠️ Development
# Clone
git clone https://github.com/user/code-facet-generator.git
# Install dependencies
cd code-facet-generator
npm install
# Build
npm run build
# Run extension in VS Code
# Press F5 in VS Code
Adding a New Facet
1.Create a new file in lib///.ts:
export function generate(params: any): string {
return `your config content here`;
}
2.Add the facet to info.json:
{
"category": {
"tool-name": {
"name": "filename",
"extension": ".ext",
"route": "./path/~",
"description": "Description",
"version": {
"1.0": "./lib/category/tool/v1.0.ts"
}
}
}
}
3.Done! The extension will pick it up automatically.
