tromp

vscode extension that runs commands based on the file you have open. good for running tests and arbitrary commands without leaving your editor.

also lets you quickly open bookmarks associated with a project:

install

quick open (⌘P) and enter the following:

ext install schpet.tromp

or grab it from
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=schpet.tromp

how it works

reads a tromp.json config file that associates commands with glob matches, and defines bookmarks.

example tromp.json:

{
  "commands": [
    {
      "match": "**/*.jest.ts",
      "command": "yarn jest",
      "mode": "jest"
    },
    {
      "match": "**/*_spec.rb",
      "command": "rspec",
      "mode": "rspec"
    },
    {
      "match": "**/*.js",
      "command": "node"
    }
  ],
  "bookmarks": {
    "marketplace": "https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=schpet.tromp",
    "github": "https://github.com/schpet/tromp",
    "pull requests": "https://github.com/schpet/tromp/pulls",
    "sentry": "https://sentry.io/organizations/tromp/issues/?project=123456"
  }
}

commands

• tromp.runCommand
  allows running the command without arguments, e.g. yarn test
• tromp.runCommandWithFile
  run the command with the relative file as the last argument, e.g. yarn test test/foo.spec.js
• tromp.runCommandWithNearest
  run command with nearest arguments based on the mode
  e.g. rspec spec/foo_spec.rb:666
  or yarn jest src/foo.test.js -t "my cool test"
  support for jest and rspec so far
• tromp.runPreviousCommand
  run the previously executed command again
• tromp.openBookmark
  pop open your list of bookmarks (similar UI as opening a file via cmd-p)

other notes

• works with Alternate File, e.g. if you want to run a test from the non-test code
