Create Relative File

Create new files relative to the path of the active document.

I prefer to keep my hands on the keyboard but hate having to remember a full path when creating files. This vscode plugin solves this by allowing the user to create files relative to the active document they are currently working in.

Features

Via the command prompt search for: Create Relative File

Create 1 or more files by seperating with an empty space or comma.

newFile1.js newFile2.js ../somewhereElse/newFile3.js

If a new folder path is specified this will also be created.

../newFolder1/newFile1.js

If input has no extension or a trailing forward slash then create a folder instead.

newFolder/newFolder2

Add multiple files under specified path (emmet style):

../newFolder/newFile1.js+newFile2.js+newFile3.js

If the input is prefixed with a forward slash, then the workspace base path is used. This will also occur by default if no active document is open.

/test.config.js

If files or folders already exist they will not be overwritten.
