Commands

This extension provides the following commands:

• Dongx: Set Environment Variables - Set ANTHROPIC environment variables
• Dongx: Remove Environment Variables - Remove ANTHROPIC environment variables
• Dongx: Show Current Environment Settings - Display current configuration

Usage

Setting Environment Variables

1. Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P on macOS, Ctrl+Shift+P on Windows/Linux)
2. Run the command Dongx: Set Environment Variables
3. Confirm the action when prompted
4. The extension will add these environment variables to your VS Code terminal settings:

   ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL=http://japi-ai-proxy-pre.jd.com/aiProxy
   ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
   

Customizing Values

You can customize the default values in VS Code settings:

1. Open Settings (Cmd+, on macOS, Ctrl+, on Windows/Linux)
2. Search for "dongx"
3. Modify the following settings:
   • dongx.anthropicBaseUrl: Custom Anthropic API Base URL
   • dongx.anthropicApiKey: Your Anthropic API Key
   • dongx.autoSetOnActivation: Auto-set variables when extension activates

Removing Variables

1. Open the Command Palette
2. Run Dongx: Remove Environment Variables
3. Confirm the removal when prompted

Configuration

The extension adds the following settings to VS Code:

{
  "dongx.anthropicBaseUrl": "http://japi-ai-proxy-pre.jd.com/aiProxy",
  "dongx.anthropicApiKey": "sk-ant-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", 
  "dongx.autoSetOnActivation": false
}

How It Works

This extension modifies your VS Code user settings to add environment variables that will be available in all new integrated terminal sessions. The modified setting looks like:

{
  "terminal.integrated.env.osx": {
    "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "http://japi-ai-proxy-pre.jd.com/aiProxy",
    "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "sk-ant-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
  }
}

The platform-specific key (osx, windows, or linux) is automatically detected.
