TagitUp

A simple VS Code extension for tagging files within your workspace and easily searching for them. Keep your files organized by assigning relevant tags to your files. I did this mainly to tag leetcode problems so that I can categorize them and come back to them based on the topics that are associated with the problem.

For example: Apply Operations to maximize the score this S.O.B. problem has:

  1. Binomial Exponentiation (modular actually)
  2. Sieve
  3. Monotonic Stack

So, tag them. It will be useful later on.

Note: There are a bunch of features that I can do further. Will do when time permits.

Features

  • Tag Files: Assign one or more tags to the currently open file.
  • View Tags:
    • See tags for the active file directly in the "TagitUp" view (An exclusive activity bar view, cause why not?).
    • Browse all unique tags used in the workspace (in the current workspace only).
    • List all files associated with a specific tag.
  • Search: Find files using tag expressions (& - AND, | - OR, () - grouping. See, dummy, you can't use commas here).
  • Persistence: Tags are saved within your VS Code workspace state, persisting across sessions for that workspace (NBD, everything is handled by VS Code).
  • File Management: Automatically handles tag migration on file rename and cleanup on file deletion (within VS Code. Outside VS Code, you can hit refresh.).
  • Export/Import tags: You can export tags into a JSON file so that you can import them into another workspace or another device by using the same JSON file.

Usage

  1. Open the TagitUp View: Click on the TagitUp icon in the Activity Bar (you may need to add it if it's hidden).

  2. TagitUp View Sections:

    • Active File Tags: Displays tags associated with the currently focused file. Click the (x) icon next to a tag to remove it from the file.
    • Tags: Lists all unique tags found in the workspace. Expand a tag to see all files associated with it. Click on a file name to open it.

Tag files, view active file tags and remove them

  1. Commands (Access via Command Palette: Ctrl+Shift+P or Cmd+Shift+P):
    • TagitUp: Add/Edit Tags for Current File:
      • Prompts you to enter comma-separated tags for the currently active file pre-filled with the existing tags of that file, if any.
      • Tag Rules: Tags cannot contain spaces. # is an optional convention (e.g., #heap, graph, linked_list are all valid).
      • Use # though, it looks good. View files categorized by tags and search tag expressions
    • TagitUp: Search Files by Tags:
      • Prompts you to enter a tag query.
      • Syntax:
        • #tag1 (find files with #tag1)
        • #tag1 & #tag2 (find files with both #tag1 AND #tag2)
        • #tag1 | #tag2 (find files with either #tag1 OR #tag2)
        • (#tag1 & #tag2) | #tag3 (grouping with parentheses)
      • Select a file from the results to open it.
    • TagitUp: Refresh View: Manually refreshes the TagitUp view contents.
    • TagitUp: Clear All Tags: Removes all tags from all files in the workspace state (requires confirmation). Use with caution!
    • TagitUp: Export Tags into a JSON file: Export all tags into a JSON file with certain format that can be imported.
    • TagitUp: Import Tags from a JSON file: Import tags from a JSON file and merge them with existing tags. Only tags with under a valid format are imported.
