Annotates your Java code with code highlighting for your hottest methods in your Eclipse Codewind projects.
This extension provides code highlighting showing relative time spent in Java methods based on profiling data gathered through Codewind's load testing feature.
Usage
Prerequisites
The Eclipse Codewind extension (available here) installed in Visual Studio Code.
A Java Liberty project bound to Codewind.
With Visual Studio Code:
Open your Java Liberty Project's Performance Dashboard by right-clicking on the project in the Codewind section of Visual Studio Code and selecting Open Performance Dashboard.
Once the Performance Dashboard opens, click Run Load Test.
Once the test has completed, it will create profiling data in a load-test/[timestamp]/xxxx.hcd file in your Codewind project.
In Visual Studio Code open a Java file in your project.
The extension will highlight any methods which were found in the profiling data and annotate them to show the percentage of time they were running on the CPU during profiling.
Running the Extension
With Visual Studio Code:
Clone this repository locally.
Run npm install in the cloned codewind-java-profiler folder. This installs all necessary npm modules in the client directory.
Open the clone of this repository in Visual Studio Code.
Press Ctrl+Shift+B (Cmd+Shift+B on Mac) to compile the client.
Switch to the Debug viewlet.
Select Launch Client from the drop down and press the Run icon.
Testing
Integration Tests
To be added
Server Tests
Unit tests for the Java Server are in the server/src/test directory. These are JUnit unit tests, but can only be run inside the server Docker container.
To run the container complete the following steps:
Run docker build -t java-ls . in the server directory.
Run docker run -it java-ls bash.
In the /profiling directory, run mvn test.
You will see a summary of all tests run.
Building/Installing the Extension
To build a .vsix extension package that can then be installed/published:
Run npm install in the codewind-java-profiler folder.
Install the vsce package globally with npm install -g vsce.
Run vsce package in the codewind-java-profiler folder.
A .vsix file will then be generated.
To install the extension:
Run code --install-extension <name of generated vsix file> in the codewind-java-profiler folder.
Restart Visual Studio Code.
The extension should appear in your list of installed extensions.
