vscode-extensions-json-generator v0.1.5

VSCode-extensions package.json generator

Usage

In code

Define Config interface, and add documentation with annotations for additional data for the configuration

export interface Config {
  /**
   * @default true
   * @description description of boolConfig
   */
  boolConfig: boolean;

  /**
   * @enumDescriptions [
        "Foo description"
        "Bar description"]
   * @default "Bar"
   * @description enumConfig description
   */
  enumConfig: 'Foo' | 'Bar';
}

As cli tool

update-package-json --file 'vscode-extension-config.json'

The input JSON file may look like this:

{
  "prefix": "myExt",
  "configurations": [
    {
      "filePath": "./src/config.ts",
      "name": "Config"
    }
  ],
  "targetFile": "package.json",
  "tsconfig": "tsconfig.json"
}

As a Webpack plugin

const {
  VSCodeExtensionsPackageJsonGenerator,
} = require('vscode-extensions-json-generator/webpack');

{
  // ...
  plugins: [
    new VSCodeExtensionsPackageJsonGenerator('vscode-extension-config.json'),
  ];
}

or with object as the config

{
  // ...
  plugins: [
    new VSCodeExtensionsPackageJsonGenerator({
      prefix: 'myExt',
      configurations: [
        {
          filePath: './src/config.ts',
          name: 'Config',
        },
      ],
      targetFile: 'package.json',
      tsconfig: 'tsconfig.json',
    }),
  ];
}

Bonus - accessing configuration from code utility

import { configUtils } from 'vscode-extensions-json-generator/utils';

export const getConfiguration =
  configUtils.ConfigurationGetter<Config>('myExt');

// use it to get configuration with auto-complete and automatically type inference
const e = getConfiguration('enumConfig');

or as a class

import { configUtils } from 'vscode-extensions-json-generator/utils';

export const configurations = new configUtils.VSCodeConfigurations<Config>('myExt');

// get
const e = configurations.get('enumConfig');

// update
configurations.update('enumConfig', 'Foo');
