This is a prototype extension for Visual Studio Code https://code.visualstudio.com/ that enables complete round trip cycles for authoring OpenWhisk actions inside the editor. The key point for this extension is that it has full round trip for open whisk actions (list, create new local, create new remote, update, import from remote system, invoke, etc…) without ever leaving the IDE and makes dev cycles far shorter and easier. It also works for both Swift and JS actions on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
Download and run the installer for your platform from the Downloads Section.

Latest stable: Download the packaged extension from the releases page.
To install download the extension and drag it into VSCode
OpenWhisk command can be invoked from the Command Palette using the prefix wsk. You can invoke the Command Palette by pressing F1 or by using the key combination CMD Shift P (OS X, there is an equivalent for Windows/Linux).
Once you have the extension installed, you will have to run wsk property set inside of VS Code to set the auth and namespace values. These values can be retrieved from either the OpenWhisk CLI using wsk property get or from the web interface.
