Hydrate Extension for Visual Studio Code

Overview

This is the Visual Studio Code Hydrate extension, which builds upon the VSCode Kubernetes Extension. It allows developers to use Hydrate within VSCode, which crawls a Kubernetes cluster and generates a high level description in a component.yaml file for its deployments.

Instead of running Hydrate from the command line and entering flags and options manually, this extension allows users to select a Kubernetes cluster and run Hydrate within VSCode.

Install the Extension!

First, make sure that you have cloned Hydrate into your home directory (currently, the extension uses the home directory as the default path to the Hydrate clone).

Next, download the extension here. If you do not have the VSCode Kubernetes Extension installed, it will automatically be installed during the Hydrate extension installation. A window reload is required after installation.

Navigate to the Kubernetes view by clicking the Kubernetes icon in the sidebar. Right-click the cluster you would like to run Hydrate on, and select Hydrate Cluster. A component.yaml file for the corresponding kubeconfig file will be generated in your home directory!

Note: all clusters displayed in the sidebar are associated with the same kubeconfig file. To test out a different kubeconfig, click the "options" icon (the three dots) in the Kubernetes extension cluster explorer and click Set Kubeconfig to change the current kubeconfig file used. Then, you can run Hydrate on the newly displayed clusters with the new kubeconfig.

Testing the Extension

First, clone the repo locally by running the following command:

git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-hydrate

There are two ways to run tests:

1. From the command line, within the vscode-hydrate directory, run:

npm test

2. Alternatively, tests can be run in VSCode. From wherever the cloned repo lives, run:

code ./vscode-hydrate

Then, navigate to the Debugger view in the sidebar. Click the dropdown next to the green 'play' button, and click Extension Tests. Then click the play button to run the tests. Output will be printed to the VSCode Debug Console.
