Specman grammar syntax for VS Code

This addon adds support for the Specman (e) HDL verification language to VS Code.

Development

This code is currently under development. Feel free to contribute.

The easiest way to do that is by using VS Code with devcontainers. Otherwise, please check that you have the following tools:

  • node
  • python3
  • vscode-grammar-test (npm install -g vscode-grammar-test)
  • jinja-cli (pip install jinja-cli)
  • pre-commit (pip install pre-commit)

To update the language edit the specman.tmLanguage.json.j2/variables.yaml files.

Once you finished the edit, run the build script (Ctrl-Shift-B in VS Code), this will generate the final specman.tmLanguage.json file, by inserting any variables into the template file. You can find the intermediary files in the tmp/ directory.

Run the test task in VS Code to test the new language file. Check the documentation for the vscode-tmgrammar-test tool on how to implement tests.

If you create a new test file, please confirm that the file starts with the prefix test_*.
