VSCode Workspace Command

🔧 Execute custom commands on files in your workspace with one click. 🔧

This extension allows you to define include and exclude patterns to manage which files and directories should be targeted.
You can also select specific directories to execute commands on with the context menu, and configure available commands to use.

Acknowledgments

This extension is inspired by and based on vscode-Workspace-formatter by Jan Schaffranek. The original extension focused on formatting documents, while VSCode Workspace Command extends the concept to executing any command available in the settings.

Example

How to use: Execute Commands on the Whole Workspace

1. Open the command palette (F1)
2. Run the command: Workspace Command: Run on Workspace With ... or Run on Workspace (Default)
3. The selected command will be executed w.r.t the include/exclude patterns

How to use: Execute Commands on Selected Directories

1. Select any folder in the context menu, by right-clicking
2. Run the context-menu command: Command on Directory With ... or Command on Directory (Default)
3. The selected command will be executed w.r.t the include/exclude patterns

Extension Features

For including/excluding files, glob patterns are used.
For more information about glob patterns, see here.

Include Patterns for File Selection

You can add glob patterns to include specific file names.
By default, there is no include filter.

Example for including only TypeScript files:

"Workspace_Command.includePattern": ["*.ts"]

Exclude Folders for Selection

You can add glob patterns to exclude folder and file names.
Per default, all folders and files starting with a "." are excluded, also all directories that are called build.

For example, if you want to skip processing for javascript files in your workspace, you could add the following glob pattern:

"Workspace_Command.excludePattern": ["*.js"]

Configurable Commands

You can configure a list of available commands in settings, and optionally set a default command.

Example setting a list of commands:

"Workspace_Command.availableCommands": ["editor.action.formatDocument", "editor.action.organizeImports"]
