Building the VS Code extension

To build the VS Code extension, follow these steps:

Run:

cd mirrord-vscode
npm install
npm run compile

If you want to package the extension into a .vsix file (which can then be installed in VS Code), run

npm run package

You should see something like

DONE  Packaged: /Users/you/Documents/projects/mirrord/vscode-ext/mirrord-<version>.vsix (11 files, 92.14MB)

Note that packaging isn't necessary for debugging the extension.

Debugging the VS Code extension

To debug the VS Code extension, first build the extension.

Now you can just open the extension's code in VS Code and run or debug it, using the "Launch Extension" run configuration. Another VS Code window will start. You can set breakpoints in the extension's code in the first window, and use the extension in the second window to reach the breakpoints. When in debug mode, the extension will automatically use the debug mirrord binary.

If you want to see the layer's logs, use the console by setting

            "env": {
                "RUST_LOG": "warn,mirrord=trace",
                "MIRRORD_CONSOLE_ADDR": "127.0.0.1:11233"
            }

in the launch configuration of the second window.
