Bash IDE

Visual Studio Code extension utilizing the bash language server, that is based on Tree Sitter and its grammar for Bash and supports explainshell integration.

Features

• [x] Jump to declaration
• [x] Find references
• [x] Code Outline & Show Symbols
• [x] Highlight occurrences
• [x] Code completion
• [x] Simple diagnostics reporting
• [x] Documentation for flags on hover
• [x] Workspace symbols
• [ ] Rename symbol

Configuration

To get documentation for flags on hover (thanks to explainshell), run a explainshell server and update your VS Code settings:

    "bashIde.explainshellEndpoint": "http://localhost:5000",

For security reasons, it defaults to "", which disables explainshell integration. When set, this extension will send requests to the endpoint and displays documentation for flags. We recommend using a local Docker image (see https://github.com/bash-lsp/bash-language-server/issues/180).
