Roslynator for Visual Studio Code

A collection of refactorings, and fixes for C#, powered by Roslyn.

Analyzers are not included in this extension. Add Roslynator.Analyzers to your projects for diagnostics in the editor and dotnet build.

Prerequisites

This extension requires legacy OmniSharp (not C# Dev Kit):

• Set VS Code setting dotnet.server.useOmnisharp to true
• Disable extension C# Dev Kit (if installed)
• Use a recent C# extension with OmniSharp 1.39.15+ (Roslyn 5.x)

NOTE: After each installation, Roslynator updates omnisharp.json with references to its DLLs.

C# Dev Kit does not currently support loading Roslyn features from an extension (see related issue), so this extension does not work with C# Dev Kit. As an alternative, use NuGet packages that provide refactorings and code fixes for compiler diagnostics.

Configuration

Use an EditorConfig file to configure analyzers, refactorings, and compiler diagnostic fixes.

# Set severity for all analyzers that are enabled by default (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/code-quality/use-roslyn-analyzers?view=vs-2022#set-rule-severity-of-multiple-analyzer-rules-at-once-in-an-editorconfig-file)
dotnet_analyzer_diagnostic.category-roslynator.severity = default|none|silent|suggestion|warning|error

# Enable/disable all analyzers by default.
# NOTE: This option can be used only in .roslynatorconfig file
roslynator_analyzers.enabled_by_default = true|false

# Set severity for a specific analyzer
dotnet_diagnostic.<ANALYZER_ID>.severity = default|none|silent|suggestion|warning|error

# Enable/disable all refactorings
roslynator_refactorings.enabled = true|false

# Enable/disable specific refactoring
roslynator_refactoring.<REFACTORING_NAME>.enabled = true|false

# Enable/disable all compiler diagnostic fixes
roslynator_compiler_diagnostic_fixes.enabled = true|false

# Enable/disable specific compiler diagnostic fix
roslynator_compiler_diagnostic_fix.<COMPILER_DIAGNOSTIC_ID>.enabled = true|false

See the full list of configuration options.

Default Configuration

To configure Roslynator for all projects on your machine, use a .roslynatorconfig file.

To open the config file:

1. Press Ctrl + Shift + P
2. Type "roslynator"
3. Select "Roslynator: Open Default Configuration File (.roslynatorconfig)"

Location of Configuration File

The configuration file is located at %LOCALAPPDATA%/JosefPihrt/Roslynator/.roslynatorconfig. The value of %LOCALAPPDATA% depends on the operating system:

Default configuration is loaded once when the IDE starts. Therefore, it may be necessary to restart the IDE for changes to take effect.

Requirements

This extension requires C# for Visual Studio Code with OmniSharp 1.39.15+ (Roslyn 5.x). See Prerequisites.

Although Roslynator is free of charge, donations are welcome and support further development.
