Source Code Context

A Visual Studio Code extension that generates a comprehensive context file of your project's source code for AI tools.

Features

• Creates a single file containing your project structure and file contents
• Configurable exclusions for directories, files, and wildcards
• Filters out binary files and respects file size limits
• Optional extension-based filtering for relevant code files
• Easily shareable output for AI tools

Usage

1. Open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P)
2. Type and select "Generate Source Code Context"
3. The extension will create a file (default: source_code_context.txt) in your workspace root
4. The file will be automatically opened once generated

Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings:

• sourceCodeContext.outputFile: Name of the output file (default: "source_code_context.txt")
• sourceCodeContext.excludeDirs: Directories to exclude (default includes node_modules, venv, vendor, target, dist, .git, etc.)
• sourceCodeContext.excludeFiles: Files to exclude, supports wildcards (default includes package-lock.json, *.log, *.png, etc.)
• sourceCodeContext.includeExtensions: File extensions to include (default: [".js", ".ts", ".py", ".java", ".cpp", ".c", ".cs", ".go", ".rb", ".php"])
• sourceCodeContext.maxFileSize: Maximum file size in KB to include (default: 1024, set to 0 for no limit)

Notes

• Binary files (e.g., .png, .pdf, .exe) are automatically omitted.
• Use wildcards (e.g., *.log) in excludeFiles to exclude patterns.
• Cancel the generation process via the notification if it takes too long.
