MMT Extension for Visual Studio Code

Features

Syntax highlighting, typechecking, and building for the MMT language.

Usage

1. Create a directory for your MMT archives (e.g., called archives).

2. Clone MMT archives into that directory (e.g., by git clone https://gl.mathhub.info/MMT/urtheories.git urtheories).

3. Open your archives directory in Visual Studio Code

   On Windows, you can do this by navigating to your archives directory using WIndows Explorer, right-clicking in an empty space there, and selecting Open with Code. Alternatively and for other operating systems, open Visual Studio Code and select File -> Open Folder....

4. In the Visual Studio Code window you can now open arbitrary *.mmt files.

5. When you have an *.mmt file opened, you can press Ctrl+Shift+P to open the command pallette and seek typecheck and build.

In case of errors or bugs, a helpful command is Reload MMT.

Known Issues

Currently no code completion or lenses.

Sideloading

1. Download the nightly build of this extension packaged as a *.vsix extension file.
2. Open Visual Studio Code and press Ctrl+Shift+P (alternatively: View -> Command Pallette...)
3. In the Command Pallette type VSIX and select >Extensions: Install from VSIX....
4. Select the *.vsix extension file you downloaded in step 1.
