VSCode Configurator

This is a CLI tool to quickly bootstrap a new project for VSCode. More specifically, it's to reduce the amount of common tasks I perform.

⚠️ Note:

It's mainly just a tool I'm writing for myself.

🏗️ Building from source

🧰 Pre-requisites

• .NET 8 SDK
  • You will also need to install the pre-requisites for your platform located here.
    • For Linux based platforms, you primarily need to ensure that packages for clang and zlib (dev) packages are installed to your system.

🧱 Building

⚠️ Note:

Before building, you need to know the "runtime identifier" for your platform. For simplicity, these docs will use linux-x64. Replace that value with what you use, if needed.

For example if:

• You're building on a x64 Linux-based system, the identifier would be linux-x64.
• You're building on an Apple-silicon macOS system, the identifier would be osx-arm64.

Command-line

1. Set your current directory to where you cloned the repo.
2. Run the following command:

dotnet publish ./src/Configurator/ --configuration "Release" --runtime "linux-x64" --self-contained

The compiled binary will be located in the ./artifacts/publish/Configurator/ directory in the local repo.

Visual Studio Code

1. Open the command palette (Shift+Ctrl+P (Windows/Linux) / Shift+Cmd+P (macOS)).
2. Type in Tasks: Run Task and press Enter.
   • Ensure that is the selected option before pressing Enter.
3. Select Publish: Configurator.
4. Select your platform's runtime identifier.

The compiled binary will be located in the ./artifacts/publish/Configurator/ directory in the local repo.
