Rails Project Navigator for Visual Studio Code 
The idea for this extension came from Tim Pope's excellent rails.vim vim plugin. While it doesn't do everything that rails.vim does, my goal was to start with implementing the basic Rails application navigation.
Although the defaults are configured for a Rails application, you can override them and use this extension with any project.
Features
- Quickly access files in preset paths relative to your application
- Create your own mappings as well as override the defaults
- Default categories which can be browsed are:
- Config ([workspace folder]/config, excluding initializers)
- Controllers ([workspace folder]/app/controllers)
- Helpers ([workspace folder]/app/helpers)
- Initializers ([workspace folder]/config/initializers)
- Jobs ([workspace folder]/app/jobs)
- Layouts ([workspace folder]/app/views/layouts)
- Mailers ([workspace folder]/app/mailers)
- Migrations ([workspace fo]der]/db/migrate)
- Models ([workspace folder]/app/models)
- Rake Tasks ([workspace folder]/lib/tasks)
- Specs ([workspace folder]/spec)
- Tests ([workspace folder]/test)
- Views ([workspace folder]/app/views, excluding layouts)
Usage
- Run "Navigate Rails Project" from the command palette.
- Choose a category of files to browse
- Choose a file to open
You can also assign a keybinding to railsProjectNavigator.navigate, in place of #1.
Extension Settings
rails-project-navigator.categories
You can customize the categories which are displayed however you would like. You can create your own as well as modify or even remove the defaults. The configuration is done using the rails-project-navigator.categories configuration setting.
The setting should be an array of objects which each have at least a name and path key with string values.
The valid keys are:
"name" -- The text which will be displayed in the selection (quick pick) box"path" -- The path to the files in this category, relative to the currently opened folder in VS Code"exclusionGlob" -- Any files matching this glob will not be listed when you browse the category
The recommended location for these settings is in "workspace settings", so that each of your projects can have their own configuration.
rails-project-navigator.globalExclusionGlobs
If you have files which you do not ever want to display, in any category, you can blacklist them using rails-project-navigator.globalExclusionGlobs. This setting is an array of glob strings. If any file which would normally be shown in a category matches one or more of the globs, it will be excluded. This is applied after the exclusion glob which is set on each specific category.
