An up-to-date Visual Studio Code installation is all you need.

Download and Installation

You can install the extension from within the editor or from the marketplace: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=hudakf.cds

Configuration

If you want to customize the token colors, add an editor.tokenColorCustomizations section to your vscode settings.json. The following example will change the color of annotations. You can color the annotation symbol as well as each "level" of member access separately, up to 5 levels.

"editor.tokenColorCustomizations": {
    "textMateRules": [
        {
            "scope": "comment.line.annotation.symbol.abapcds",
            "settings": {
                "foreground": "#a8ad5b"
            }
        },
        {
            "scope": "comment.line.annotation.property.abapcds",
            "settings": {
                "foreground": "#d0f38e"
            }
        },
        {
            "scope": "comment.line.annotation.property.lvl1.abapcds",
            "settings": {
                "foreground": "#cfb879"
            }
        },
        {
            "scope": "comment.line.annotation.property.lvl2.abapcds",
            "settings": {
                "foreground": "#ff6abc"
            }
        },
        {
            "scope": "comment.line.annotation.property.lvl3.abapcds",
            "settings": {
                "foreground": "#02cc0c"
            }
        },
        {
            "scope": "comment.line.annotation.property.lvl4.abapcds",
            "settings": {
                "foreground": "#bee437"
            }
        },
        {
            "scope": "comment.line.annotation.property.lvl5.abapcds",
            "settings": {
                "foreground": "#ffef0d6c"
            }
        },
    ]
},

• Color of braces/brackets:

{
    "scope": "punctuation.abapcds",
    "settings": {
        "foreground": "#e71527af"
    }
}

Light up your code like a christmas tree!

Known issues

The highlighting grammar is a very simplified version of the ABAP CDS language structure. 99% of the language should be covered correctly, but some more complicated constructs can be higlighted unexpectedly. If you see anything outright wrong, please create an issue.
