Arcanist: A VSCode Extension

An extension for getting some of Phorge/Arcanist features integrated with Visual Studio Code.

Features

• Show arc-lint notes in editor
  
• Open file in Diffusion
  
• Show hovercards for Phorge object mentions
  
• Recognize Arcanist files as JSON

Requirements

This extension requires Arcanist to be installed and configured for the directory you work in; arc and all your linters should be in the PATH for vscode to be able to run them.
Only reasonably recent versions of Arcanist are supported.

Known Issues

• Lints do not update as you type - you must save a file for changes to take effect. Lints also might drift when making large changes.
• Most lints only show up as 3-characters-squiggle, which is hard to see.
  We suggest users install the usernamehw.errorlens extension.
• When working with multiple Phorge servers, the hovercard cache may get confused.
