Thank you for contributing! Please follow these steps to manually test your changes locally.
Most of the logic in this extension is implemented in two other libraries:
If your work involves modifying any of these, here is how you can manually test it in VSCode:
pushd language-service
npm install
npm link
npm run build
popd
pushd language-server
npm install
npm link @cucumber/language-service
npm link
npm run build
popd
pushd vscode
npm install
npm link @cucumber/language-server
code .
# Make sure you've disabled the Cucumber extension if you installed it from the marketplace
# Chose `Run -> Run without debugging` to open a 2nd editor where you can manually test
The connection.console.info messages printed by the language server are visible under Output -> Cucumber Language Server
If you need to make more changes to language-service or language-server, you have to rebuild them (but you don't need to relink). E.g:
pushd language-service
npm run build
popd
Then exit your 2nd editor and start it again via Run
