Autocomplete, validation and hover documentation for .devprune.json — the
per-repository configuration file of dev-prune
(devp), the CLI that reclaims disk space from idle Git repositories by deleting
dependency directories a lockfile can provably rebuild.
This extension contains no code. It maps .devprune.json to the
hosted JSON Schema,
so VS Code's built-in JSON language server provides:
Autocomplete for every key: project_name, ignore, disable_hooks,
disable_daemon, override_idle_days, min_size_mb, scan_depth.
Hover documentation describing what each key does.
Validation — unknown keys and out-of-range values are underlined, because a
.devprune.json that does not parse makes devp skip the repository rather than
guess at what it meant.
Files that devp config project writes carry a $schema link already, so those work
without this extension; installing it covers hand-written files too.
Install
VS Code: search dev-prune in the Extensions view, or code --install-extension VKrishna04.dev-prune.
VSCodium / Cursor / anything without marketplace access: every
GitHub release attaches
the packaged extension as dev-prune-vscode-<version>.vsix. Download it and run:
codium --install-extension … and cursor --install-extension … work the same way,
as does Extensions view → ⋯ → Install from VSIX. Because the extension is a single
declarative schema mapping, a side-loaded copy is byte-for-byte what the marketplace
serves — there is no auto-update to miss out on beyond new schema keys, which arrive
through the hosted schema URL anyway, without an extension update.
