Introduction

In many situations, automatically determine how to run a script file by it's extension or something else is totally inflexible and not what I want. So I just put all the options I often used into one menu, which is simple, robust and very flexible. Hope you'll like it too.

Because vscode extersion lack dynamic mechanism, my code is ugly and reductant, each menu entry has to appear in three places, just as shown below.

package.json

"contributes": {
    "commands": [
        {
            "command": "run",
            "title": "Run"
        },
        {
            "command": "run_qjs",
            "title": "Run with qjs"
        },
        {
            "command": "run_node",
            "title": "Run with node"
        },

package.json

"menus": {
    "editor/context": [
        {
            "command": "run"
        },
        {
            "command": "run_qjs"
        },
        {
            "command": "run_node"
        },

main.js

const runConfig = {
    'run': ['', ''],
    'run_qjs': ['qjs ', ''],
    'run_node': ['node ', ''],

It's so stupid, anybody has better idea, please tell me.
