VS Code extension for Quench

This extension provides support for the Quench language via a language server, which it automatically downloads if you don't already have it installed. To use, simply install this extension, open any file whose name ends with .qn, and click the "Download" button if prompted.

Development

Prerequisites

• Node
• VS Code

Basics

The below instructions assume that your VS Code workspace is (the root of) the Quench repo but your shell cwd is this directory (editors/code in the repo).

First install dependencies:

npm install

Then compile:

npm run compile

Next, from VS Code, press F5 to open a new window with this extension loaded. To avoid developing with a mismatched version of Quench itself, you may also need to build Quench from source and change the quench.server.path setting to point to the binary you've built. Then open a Quench source file (such as examples/hello.qn from this repository) to activate it as normal.
