RiveScript

Overview

A Visual Studio Code extension that elevates your RiveScript development workflow by combining robust syntax support with an integrated chat interface. With syntax highlighting, language-aware editing features, and a live preview panel, you can write, test, and iterate on your conversational scripts without ever leaving your editor.

RiveScript VS Code Extension Screenshot

  • Rich Syntax Highlighting: Colorized tokens for triggers, replies, variables, comments, and more—so your .rive files are always clear and easy to read.

  • Language Configuration: Smart indentation, auto-comment toggling, bracket matching, and word-based suggestions tailored specifically for RiveScript’s syntax.

  • Side-by-Side Chat Panel: Launch a webview panel next to your code. Send messages to your bot and see its replies in real time—no extra browser windows or tools needed.

  • Hot-Reload Capability: Modify your script, click Reload, and instantly update the bot logic in the chat panel. Keep the conversation going without restarting the extension.

  • Quick Access

    • Command Palette: run Test RiveScript
    • Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl + Shift + T (when your cursor is in a RiveScript file)

Usage

  1. Open any .rive file in your editor.
  2. Invoke the chat tester:
    • Via Command Palette: type > Test RiveScript
    • Or press Ctrl + Shift + T (while in a RiveScript file)
  3. A RiveScript Chat panel appears beside your code.
  4. Type messages and see your bot’s replies instantly.
  5. Edit your .rive file; then click Reload in the panel toolbar to update the bot’s brain.
