Membrane VSCode Extension

Setup

Before using the extension, you need to configure the path to mctl (Membrane's CLI binary)

File > Preferences > Settings > "Membrane: Mctl"

Alternatively, add the path to your VS Code settings.json:

"membrane.mctl" = "/path/to/your/mctl"

Basic Usage

Exploring the Graph

Using the VSCode Command palette (cmd+shift+p), run the command View: Focus on Explorer View to open the Graph Explorer.

Use the Graph Explorer to query and manipulate the data in your Membrane graph.

To use a graph node, drag-and-drop it onto any file. This will add the node as a dependency and create a property in the nodes object bound to the graph node. Alternatively you use Copy reference to node and modify memconfig.json manually.

Creating new programs

Click the Create button at the top of the Explorer View to create a new program

Updating Programs

Use Membrane: Update current program from the VSCode Command palette (cmd+shift+p)
