Maptz MCode CS

Extends VS code to provide a number of helpful operations on C# files.

Features

MCode CS is an open source Visual Studio Code extension. It currently supports a number of different operations:

• Add test (Currently not working)
• Convert to async
• Convert to protected virtual
• Create settings
• Extract class
• Expand property
• Express as property
• Express as statement
• Remove unused usings
• Sort

Each of these features is described individually in the sections below.

Add Test (Currently not working)

Adds a test method matching the method that the cursor is at. This extension assumes that tests adopt a set of conventions.

• The test project should be in the same parent directory as the current project directory.
• The test project is has the same as the project with a .Tests suffix, so if your project is called SomeProject, then the test project will be called SomeProject.Tests.

Default keybinding ctrl+m ctrl+t

Convert to async

Converts the method at the cursor to an async method.

Default keybinding ctrl+m ctrl+6

Convert to protected virtual

Converts the method at the cursor to an protected virtual method.

Default keybinding ctrl+m ctrl+7

Create settings

Creates a class for storing settings for the current class. This method assumes you are using the .net core pattern in the Nuget package Microsoft.Extensions.Options. A poco class is created with the same name as the current class with the suffix Settings. Additionally, an instance of IOptions<> is added as a property on the current class injected by the constructor.

Default keybinding ctrl+m ctrl+s

Expand property

Expands the current property to expose backing fields.

Default keybinding ctrl+m ctrl+d

Express as property

Expands the current statement to set a sensibly named property based on the current context

Default keybinding ctrl+m ctrl+z

Express as statement

Expands the current statement to create a sensibly named variable based on the current context

Default keybinding ctrl+m ctrl+x

Extract class

Extracts the current class into a new file whose name matches the name of the class.

Default keybinding ctrl+m ctrl+e

Remove unused usings

Removes any unused using statements from the current document.

Default keybinding ctrl+m ctrl+f4

Sort

Sorts the members of the current class.

Default keybinding ctrl+m ctrl+f4

Requirements

The extension relies on execution of a cross-platform .net executable. When the extension is first run, it makes an attempt to download the executable to the bin directory of the extension.

Extension Settings

The extension currently doesn't expose any settings.
