Run VS Commands from Editor

Run VS code internal commands directly from editor by click

Requirements

• Visual Studio Code 1.48+

How to Use

• Only tested on Windows
• By default the extention is enabled, you can toggle it using the command palette. Trigger the command palette (Ctrl / Cmd + Shift + P) -> Command Runnder: Enable / Disable.
• Once it is enabled, above every line that contains the symbols '$>' followed by a code snipped appears a button to execute the command, like:

$> `cursorDown`

• With arguments

cmd("arg")

• With arguments and eval ("vscode_1" for not global "vscode" commands)

cmd[eval("arg")]
$> `vscode.open[vscode_1.Uri.file("C:/Folder/File.txt")]`

• Eval commands and see their values at toast notification and console log

eval(cmd)
$> `eval(vscode_1.window.activeTextEditor.document.fileName)`

• Also can run multiple commands, separated by "|":

$> `cursorUp|cursorUp|cursorUp`

• Open file alias. Works with relative path

opener("FILEPATH")
$> `opener("C:/Folder/File.txt")`

• Reveal at explorer alias

revealer("PATH")
$> `revealer("C:/Folder/")`
$> `revealer("C:/Folder/File.txt")`

• For both reveal or open: works with relative path and wildcard (* at the end will open the closest match in case of file or folder, other cases the last slash is optional)

$> `opener("./../../../Folder/File.txt")`
$> `revealer("C:/Users/P*")`

• Environmental variables also works (in all cases, will be substituted by the corresponding value)

$> `opener("${config:path}")`
$> `revealer("${env:USERPROFILE}")`
