visdevis a web-based code editor built using Node.js.
npm install -g vsd
Then cd into the directory you want to view and execute:
vsd
The default port is 3000. To change this use the command
PORT=XXXX vsd
If you'd like to try out this editor that's great BUT PLEASE USE CAUTION.
Ensure any code is backed up regularly. I would not like it to be responsible for any work lost.
Also, there is no authentication or security built in. That is left to you. Do not run on a publicly accessible server/port.
visdev’s current features:
- File explorer tree & finder-style view
- File operations (create/delete/rename files and directories etc.)
- Syntax highlighted code editing for many programming languages
- HTML/CSS/JS beautifiers
- Find/Find+Replace
- JSLINT validation warning
- Emmet
- Code snippets
- DB Schema Designer
There are two special folder names vsd looks for:
Create any folder with the name ending in .db and vsd will treat this as a database directory.
Any .json file contained within will be assumed to be a database model definition.
vsd will then present a visual GUI db designer.
While the designer is modelled heavily on functionality available in (mongoosejs)[http://mongoosejs.com/], the model created is abstract and could be used to create db schema to generate databases other than mongo.
The npm package vsd-db-mongoose converts
the .json to mongoose schema and models. This is currently the only generator
available.
There are several demo models contained in the test directory. Here's some screenshots:
You can create some neat visualizations of the schema:
