OSLC Connector for Visual Studio Code

Installation

  1. Download and unarchive the plug-in from the Smartfacts platform. Main Menu > Get Plug-ins > Visual Studio Code

  2. Copy the root folder (smartfacts.tools.plugin.vscode) of the unarchived files into C:\Users\User_Name]\.vscode\extensions so the plugin code is then located in

    C:\Users\User_Name]\.vscode\extensions\smartfacts.tools.plugin.vscode.

If you encounter issues that vscode is not able to detect the plugin, run the following command from a command line in the folder, where the vsix file is located:

code --install-extension smartfacts.tools.plugin.vscode.vsix

3. Ensure, that the following entries are added to the smartfacts CSP.conf file:

frame-ancestors … vscode-resource://* vscode-webview://* vscode-file://* vscode-app://* …

Otherwise, the plugin might not be able to start.

4. Open Visual Studio Code

Click the Smartfacts icon in the left vertical toolbar (bottom icon):

5. Enter the instance URL of your Smartfacts instance into the textbox at the bottom of the plug-in.

6. The Smartfacts plug-in will now load.
