🚰 Check Your Pipes - Keep Your Flow Clean!

Version Status

"Hey, nice pipes you got there. Would be a shame if one of them... leaked."

A minimal, terminal-style VS Code extension to monitor your Azure DevOps Pipelines without ever leaving your editor. See the status, check the logs, and keep your flow flowing.


🚀 Features

1. Minimal Pipeline List

See all your pipelines in a dedicated sidebar view. No clutter, just the essentials.

  • ✅ Success: Clean flow.
  • ❌ Failed: Leaky pipe.
  • 🔄 In Progress: Flowing...

2. Terminal-Style Logs

Click any pipeline to see the latest build logs right inside VS Code.

  • Color-coded (Green for success, Red for failure).
  • Monospace font for that hacker vibe.
  • No heavy browser windows needed.

3. Auto-Reload

Set an auto-refresh interval (30s, 1m, 5m) to keep your pipes flowing without manual refresh.

4. Search & Filter

Quickly find pipelines by name or filter the view to show only what matters.

5. Edit Configuration

Need to switch orgs or update your token? Use the gear icon (⚙️) in the view title bar or Command Palette to:

  • Change Organization URL
  • Change Project Name
  • Switch Platform (Azure DevOps / GitHub)
  • Clear All Settings

🛠 Quick Setup

First Time Setup

  1. Open the Check Your Pipes view in the Activity Bar.
  2. Click "Click to configure" (or run "Connect to Azure DevOps" from Command Palette).
  3. Enter your:
    • Organization URL (e.g., https://dev.azure.com/yourorg)
    • Project Name (e.g., your-project)
    • PAT Token (from Azure DevOps → User Settings → Personal Access Tokens)

Your PAT is stored securely in VS Code's Secret Storage - never in plain text.
