More Info

span-vscode

The span-vscode-extension is a simple extension to easier get started with the development towards the IoT platform Span.

Features

  • Listing your available collections and devices
  • Copyable IMSI/IMEI from devices
  • Tailing device data stream

Configuration

To communicate with Span, you need an API key. To generate one go to the API token overview and create a token with at least read capabilities to all resources. You must then add a .span-file which contains the token.

The format for the file is

TOKEN:YOUR_API_KEY

Run generate command

To simplify getting started, you can run the Span: Initiate a Span API key file, and choose either global or workspace scope for your token.

Extension Settings

  • span-vscode.APIKeyPath: Custom API key path which the extension will look for a .span-file with token.
