Oso VS Code Extension

Syntax Highlighting

Syntax highlighting for .polar files as used by Oso.

Diagnostics (Errors & Warnings)

Diagnostics (errors & warnings) from an Oso policy in the current workspace will be displayed inline in the editor and in the Problems pane.

Known Issues

• The extension will not be alerted when a directory containing Polar files is deleted from outside the VS Code client. Note that running rm -r in VS Code's built-in terminal still counts as triggering the deletion from outside the VS Code client. This is due to a limitation of VS Code's file watcher. If you delete a directory some other way than through the right-click menu in VS Code's file tree, the simplest remediation is to restart the Oso extension.

Metrics

The extension collects non-identifiable metrics that we use to improve Oso. We collect data into un-timestamped batches instead of sending it on every policy load since we care about aggregate statistics, not tracking your personal development behavior. We will never sell this data.

For more info on exactly what is tracked and why, see this page in the docs.
