rce.js IntelliSense

Full IntelliSense, diagnostics, signature help, tree explorer, and project scaffolding for rce.js - the Rust Console Edition RCON integration library.

Features

IntelliSense & Completions

Event name completions - type .on(' and get a dropdown of all 33 rce.js events with full payload documentation:

rce.on('playerKill', ({ server, killer, victim }) => { ... });
//      ^-- autocomplete here

Enum member completions - type RCEEvent., RCEIntent., LogLevel., GameRole., GamePlatform., PlayerKillType. to get all members with descriptions and values.

QuickChat completions - type QuickChat. to get all 73 enum values grouped by category (COMBAT, BUILDING, ACTIVITIES, QUESTIONS, RESPONSES, ORDERS, LOCATION, NEED, HAVE).

RCON command completions - type rce.sendCommand('id', ' to get a list of common RCON commands with their signatures.

Method completions - type rce. to see all public RCEManager methods with signatures and return types.

Signature Help

Parameter hints appear automatically when calling RCEManager methods. Shows parameter name, type, and description for every argument:

rce.addServer(  ← shows full IServerOptions structure
rce.sendCommand(  ← shows identifier + command params
rce.on(  ← shows event + listener params
rce.upsertPlayer(  ← shows all 4 params

Hover Documentation

Hover over any rce.js symbol to see inline documentation:

Diagnostics

Unknown event names in .on(), .once(), or .off() calls are flagged with a warning:

rce.on("playerkill", handler);
//      ^^^^^^^^^^ Unknown rce.js event. Did you mean 'playerKill' (RCEEvent.PlayerKill)?
