Build Status

Wurst extension for Visual Studio Code

This is a plugin for the Wurst programming language, a language for maps and mods for the game Warcraft III.

If you run into problems related directly to the plugin, please create a ticket on GitHub.

Features

Context-aware auto completions (default shortcut: Ctrl+space) help you to find relevant functions quickly. You can also see the documentation of the function and the required arguments.

Autocomplete

You can always find the definition of a function (F12 or Ctrl+leftclick, or just peek at the definition with Ctrl+Shift+F10).

Goto declaration

It is even possible to navigate into the other direction and find all the references of a given definition (Shift+F12). When navigating via links, remember that vscode provides shortcuts to get to your old position (ctrl+alt+- and ctrl+shift+-).

Find references

When you are looking for references inside a file you don't even need to use the features above. Vscode will automatically highlight all other references and definitions related to the element currently under the cursor:

Highlight references

Feature list:

  • Syntax highlighting
  • Shows errors and warnings while you type (press Ctrl+Shift+M for an overview over all errors and warnings, F8 and Shift+F8 to loop through the errors in the current file)
  • Autocomplete after typing a dot or pressing Ctrl+space.
  • Parameter-info (press Ctrl+shift+space)
  • Goto declaration (F12 or Ctrl+leftclick)
  • Find references (Shift+F12)
  • Mouse hover info (hover the mouse over a function or variable to see types and documentation)
  • Some commands are available via the command palette (press F1 and type "Wurst")
    • Running units tests
    • Building maps independently from warcraft3
    • Running a map

You should also be aware of the following vscode features, which are independent from this Wurst plugin:

  • Quick Open: Open any file by its name via Ctrl+P
  • Search across files (Ctrl+Shift+F)
  • Multiple selections
  • Integrated Git support
