Flecs Script for Visual Studio Code

Language support for Flecs Script, the runtime interpreted DSL of the Flecs Entity Component System for defining scenes, assets and configuration.

Features

• Syntax highlighting for .flecs files:
  • Keywords (using, with, template, prop, const, if, else, for, in, match, new, export, include, module, fn, prefab, slot)
  • Type definitions (struct, enum, bitmask, member, constant, ...)
  • Primitive types (bool, char, u8–u64, i8–i64, f32, f64, string, entity, id, ...)
  • Components, tags, pairs (Rel, Tgt) and inheritance (entity : Prefab)
  • Variables ($var, $ shorthand) and string interpolation ("$var", "{expr}")
  • Annotations (@brief, @color, @tree, ...)
  • Line and block comments, numbers (including hex), multiline strings
• Code completion:
  • Keywords, primitive types and builtin tags/relationships
  • Builtin functions and constants (flecs.script.core, flecs.script.math)
  • Entity methods after . (name(), path(), parent(), has(), doc_*())
  • Annotations after @
  • Variables after $ (scanned from const/prop declarations in the document)
  • Components, templates and entities declared in the document
• Hover documentation for keywords, builtin functions and types
• Snippets for common constructs (struct, template, prefab, for, match, ...)
• Bracket matching, auto-closing pairs, auto-indentation and comment toggling

Example

using flecs.meta

struct Position {
  x = f32
  y = f32
}

template Tree {
  prop height: 10

  Trunk {
    Position: {0, $height / 2}
  }
}

prefab SpaceShip {
  MaxSpeed: {value: 100}
}

my_spaceship : SpaceShip {
  Position: {x: 10, y: 20}
}

for i in 0..10 {
  "tree_$i" {
    Tree: {height: $i + 5}
  }
}
