God Code for VS Code

Language support for God Code. The spiritually-inspired programming language. Syntax highlighting, smart indentation, snippets, and one-key running of .god / .godcode files.

Features

🌈 Full syntax highlighting for God Code (creation blocks, spirit commands, control flow, built-ins)
✍️ Snippets: creation, declare, intent, consult, anchor, reveal, breathe, if, for, while, rite, invoke, testify, seal, import, bless, prophesy, plus Setswana and isiZulu blocks
▶️ God Code: Run Current File (Ctrl+Alt+R / Cmd+Alt+R). Runs the open file and shows output in the God Code panel
✔️ God Code: Check Syntax of Current File. Parses without executing
💬 # line comments, auto-closing brackets and quotes, smart indent/dedent

Requirements

The God Code interpreter (Python 3.10+):

pip install godcode-engine

Install this extension

Option A: from the Visual Studio Marketplace (recommended)

Install God Code for VS Code from the Marketplace: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=alakanani.godcode

Then install the interpreter (Python 3.10+):

pip install godcode-engine

Option B: from source

Copy the editors/vscode folder to ~/.vscode/extensions/godcode
Reload VS Code. .god files light up immediately

Option C: package it

npm install -g @vscode/vsce
cd editors/vscode && vsce package
# then: code --install-extension <the .vsix file vsce produced>

Try it

Create hello.god:

BEGIN CREATION
  DECLARE seeker AS "world"
  BREATHE life INTO seeker
  REVEAL("Hello, " + seeker)
  ASCEND
END CREATION

Press Ctrl+Alt+R and watch it ascend.

Language server (coming next) 🕊

God Code now ships a language server: godcode lsp serves the Language Server Protocol over stdio. Live diagnostics from the real parser, hover scripture for every keyword and built-in, and completions. See docs/lsp.md for the protocol coverage table and editor setup.

Adoption plan for this extension: in a future release the extension will spawn godcode lsp as its language server (via vscode-languageclient), routing diagnostics, hover, and completions through it while keeping the TextMate grammar for highlighting. Until then, you can point any generic LSP client extension at the godcode lsp command today.
