SaLangDev Code Runner (Side-by-side)

Simple VS Code extension to run the currently open file in the integrated terminal. This extension uses a different name/publisher so it can be installed alongside other similar extensions.

Features

• Runs the active file using a command mapped to the file extension.
• Default mappings: .py -> python, .js -> node, .salangdev -> salangdev
• Configure salangRunner.customMapping in Settings to add or override mappings.

Installation (developer / manual)

1. Create a folder named salang-code-runner-side.
2. Put the files (package.json, extension.js, README.md, CHANGELOG.md) into that folder.
3. Open the folder in Visual Studio Code.
   • To test in development mode: Press F5 to launch an Extension Development Host instance. Open a file there and run the command Run Current File (SaLangDev Side) from the Command Palette.
   • To create a VSIX for distribution (optional): install vsce (npm i -g vsce) and run vsce package inside the folder. That produces a .vsix you can install with "Install from VSIX...".

Usage

• Open the file you want to run.
• Run the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) → Run Current File (SaLangDev Side).
• The extension saves the file and runs the associated command for the file extension in the integrated terminal.

Configuration

Settings (search salangRunner in VS Code Settings):

• salangRunner.customMapping (object) — map file extensions to commands, for example:

  {
    ".py": "python",
    ".js": "node",
    ".salangdev": "C:\\path\\to\\salang-runner.exe"
  }
