I don't think this project is popular enough to attract any developers. However, in case I'm wrong, feel free to get in touch.
For now this section will simply focus on listing all essential steps required to setup dev env, and get it to build & run from sources.
- yarn - https://yarnpkg.com
git clone https://github.com/Talv/sc2-layouts.git vscode-sc2-layout
cd vscode-sc2-layout
yarn install.gitignore'd stuff that might be essential
./sc2-data <- https://github.com/SC2Mapster/SC2GameData
Compile .ts files and watch for changes
yarn run build:watch
Run tests
yarn run test
Index & cache sc2layout schema files. With a file-watcher re-running process on every change.
$SC2_LAYOUT_SCHEMA <- https://github.com/SC2Mapster/sc2layout-schema
fd . $SC2_LAYOUT_SCHEMA/sc2layout -e xml | entr -s 'node out/src/bin/s2ldev.js cache $SC2_LAYOUT_SCHEMA/sc2layout test/fixtures/schema/sc-min.json'
To run extension in VSC in dev mode, use configured profile in launch.json, named Launch Extension.
https://code.visualstudio.com/api/working-with-extensions/testing-extension - this might be helpful aswell. Although it focuses on running unit tests [1] within VSC. But it's enough to switch launch profile to default one, and other parts of tutorial should still apply.
[1] Currently existing unit tests aren't dependant on VSC, and can be run directly in Node. Long term goal is to split this plugin to standalone library that will do only the backend stuff, and use LSP as communication layer.
