Support for PHL documents (.phl, .pll) and HPL tables
(.hpl, .hpll):
Highlighting for keys, objects {key: value}, lists [1, 2], tables
(columns) { row; row; }, strings, numbers and // comments.
Errors as you type, with the same messages the libraries give. Only the
first error in a file is shown, because parsing stops there.
Outline and breadcrumbs: every key, list item, table row and cell.
Ctrl+Shift+O jumps to any of them.
Hover on a key, column or value shows its path (product[3].ID), its
type, and the size of objects, lists and tables. Quoted values such as
"true" that are read as another type are pointed out.
Completion for "true", "false" and "nil", and snippets for a table,
an object and a list.
Brackets and quotes close automatically, and // toggles comments.
The language features use the PHL JavaScript library from libs/js, so the
editor accepts and rejects exactly what the library does.
Install (local)
The extension needs a copy of the library first:
cd vscode-phl
bun run copy-lib
Then copy or link this folder into your VS Code extensions folder as phl-0.3.0:
