Features

Supports:

• Grammar-based syntax highlighting
• Problem matcher (and pattern) for build tasks
• Snippets

To make use of the problem matcher, the task should pass the relative file path to Gnuplot. Example task in tasks.json:

{
    "label":          "Plot with Gnuplot",
    "command":        "${config:gnuplot.gnuplotPath}",
    "args":           [ "${relativeFile}" ],
    "problemMatcher": "$gnuplot"
    // ...
}

If the script includes other Gnuplot scripts, it may be useful to set a matching loadpath:

{
    "label":          "Plot with Gnuplot",
    "command":        "${config:gnuplot.gnuplotPath}",
    "args":           [ "-e", "set loadpath '${fileDirname}'", "${relativeFile}" ],
    "problemMatcher": "$gnuplot"
    // ...
}

Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

• gnuplot.gnuplotPath: Path to the Gnuplot executable. Not used by this extension directly, but useful in tasks.json if it's checked into repositories. Use a command such as ${config:gnuplot.gnuplotPath}.
