VS Code extension for cx

VS Code language support for the cx programming language.

cx in VS Code

Features

  • Syntax highlighting and snippets
  • Language server integration (cx-lsp): diagnostics as you type, hover signatures, go to definition, completions, document outline, find references, and semantic highlighting

Requirements

The language server features need the cx-lsp binary on PATH (built from this repo, or shipped with cx releases). Set cx.languageServer.path if it lives elsewhere. Syntax highlighting and snippets work without it.

Extension settings

  • cx.languageServer.path: path to the cx-lsp executable (default: cx-lsp on PATH)
  • cx.languageServer.args: extra command-line arguments for cx-lsp
  • cx.languageServer.importSearchPaths: extra import search paths for analysis
  • cx.languageServer.defines: #if flags enabled for analysis

The importSearchPaths and defines settings take effect after restarting the language server (cx: Restart Language Server command).

Installation

Install from the VS Code Marketplace, or use the VS Code "install extensions" command and search for cx Programming Language.

Alternatively, you can download the .vsix file from Releases, and run

code --install-extension path/to/file.vsix

Developing

cd editors/vscode
npm install
npm run compile

Then launch the extension from VS Code with "Run Extension".
