vscode-openflow

Openflow is the de facto standard for SDN, see ovs

Usually we will see the flows, meters, groups and so on with command line below:

ovs-ofctl dump-flows br-int
ovs-ofctl dump-meters br-int -O openflow13
ovs-ofctl dump-groups br-int

Though we have the ofproto/trace tool to help us analyze the flows, it could still be hard for us to pin-point mistake in the tables. A real scenario in huge distributed system will have over ten thousands of flows or even more.

This aims to work as a helper to analyze the flows dumped out from the environment. Save the flows to a file ended with .ofp and open it with vscode and install this extension.
