Is this by design or an oversight. I was expecting the Export Cicero Archive action to result in a source archive (so that someone else could load it later and edit it further).

https://github.com/accordproject/cicero-vscode-extension/blob/06ab3db7b021b665e7a04de857878efd6fda4bd7/client/src/commandHandlers.ts#L40

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Cicero provides the following commands via the CLI - parse, draft, normalize, trigger, invoke, initialize, archive, compile and get.

In VSCode Extension version 0.21.13, the trigger and archive commands are exposed via the command palette. It would be nice if some of the other Cicero CLI commands could be added too.

Describe the solution you'd like

For example,

• parse - input /text/sample.md and generate a /text/data.json output file.
• draft - input /text/data.json and generate a /text/sample.md output file.
  ...and similar for normalize, invoke, etc.

Maybe consider having a way to specify optional parameters if defaults not appropriate? E.g., an options.json file in, say, template root for optional parameters, such as --output, --wrapVariables, --unquoteVariables, --format etc.?)

{
   "parse":{
      "output":"./text/data.json",
      "currentTime":"null",
      "warnings":false,
      etc...etc...
   },
   "draft":{
      "output":"./text/sample.md",
      "wrapVariables":false,
      "unquoteVariables":false,
      etc...etc...
   },
   etc...etc...
}

Describe alternatives you've considered
Alternatively, keep using Cicero CLI, which works fine too! :-)

When the helloworld sample is opened and the model.cto file is opened in the editor followed by the sample.txt file then a spurious error is reported.

If the template.tem file is subsequently opened and the sample.txt file is re-opened then the problem resolves. This can be repeated to your heart's content.

The current README.md contains an invalid slack invite. The same can be replaced with an updated invite link to the discord server.

Would you like to work on this issue?

Yes

Describe the bug
.vscode and .dist folders are created by vscode and these folders contain user specific config for the IDE. These folders should be ignored by git so that no one accidentally commits these files.

There is a lot of new activity around supporting VSCode in the browser. It would be exciting to be able to be able to see if one of those projects would allow us to host a version of VSCode for editing Accord Project templates (with this extension).

Some notes from @DianaLease who has started investigating this.

VS Code in Browser

Things we'd like in an online app:

• Ability to import/export
• Ability to use AP extension
• Ability to run cicero commands (?) - parse is built in to the extension (might need draft, trigger, etc)
• Publish to github from editor (?) - should be easy to do with VS Code

Code-server: code-server/CONTRIBUTING.md at master · cdr/code-server · GitHub

• Since the last time I gave this demo, they have made it a lot easier to run locally
• Can be hosted anywhere
• Still can't get latest AP extension
• Not clear that you import/export
• Run VSCode in browser from a remote server? | DigitalOcean

Code Sandbox: CodeSandbox

• This is using VS Code behind the scenes
• "Initially we’ll support a predefined list of extensions, we’ll gradually open up the possibility for everyone to add and install their own extensions." (~ 1 year ago)
• Can export as zip, but has some other stuff in it too

VS Code Online: Visual Studio Online - Cloud IDE - Code Editor Online

• Needed to create an Azure account (I signed up for a free trial to try out)
• In "public preview"
• Can use latest AP extension
• No way to export/import afaik. I supplied the github repo when creating the environment.
• Terminal is read-only
• Could running cicero parse, execute, etc be part of the plugin? (already have parse)
• Could import/export be part of the plugin?

VS Code Remote Development (??)

StackBlitz: Similar to Code Sandbox, but not really what we want. More for creating UIs.

If a forwardslash is entered between opening and closing sets of double braces, an extra set of closing braces are automatically generated:

This might be a feature that I haven't configured properly.

Describe the bug
Syntax highlighting issues when writing acronyms in VS Code

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to VS Code
2. Build a Concerto model with acronyms as enumerated types
3. See lack of highlighting

Expected behavior
Acronyms should be highlighted in the same way as any other enumerated type

Desktop (please complete the following information):
VS Code 3
MacOS

Since I have added Snippets for Concerto Language and Snippets for Ergo Language is in progress. I want to add some documentation regarding how we can use it.

I started working on this.

Any reason the version numbers shouldn't be aligned with the Cicero one? (at least the major/minor number?).

e.g., Cicero VSCode extension 0.13.* would be for Cicero 0.13.*

Hovers show information about the symbol/object that's below the mouse cursor.
Hovers can help to easily show the parsed errors or the description of the symbol/object.

I have already started working on this feature, and for now, it can display the word it's been hovered on and if there exists a parsing error.

Feature Request 🛍️

VSCode now supports Web Extensions, which can run natively in the browser, on https://vscode.dev.

Use Case

Allow people to use the VSCode extension inside the browser, without installing any software.

**Is your feature request related to a problem?
No

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to suggest to add create template feature from the command pallette of vscode. This should create helloworld template in the selected folder and with selected project name. This will help end user to deal with the contracts on the go.

Snippets for model.cto file.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Provide smart editing for Ergo object creation. The idea would be to be able to start writing the class e.g., Address{ and then the editor would provide a stub for the content of that class with default values.

Default values could be populated automatically, taking into account CTO defaults if present.

Additional context
This issue originated from user experience discussion and requirements for Ergo Init accordproject/ergo#734

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No

Describe the solution you'd like
More additional Snippets for model.cto file

Running the extension on stand-alone Ergo or Concerto files introduces an infinite loop in search for the package.json file, due to which no error message is logged and the server essentially crashes
This can be traced back to the while-loop in the getTemplateRoot function in server.ts file

`function getTemplateRoot(pathStr, textDocument, diagnosticMap) {

let currentPath = pathStr;
connection.console.log(`Rikkic ${currentPath}`);

while(currentPath !== '.') {
    connection.console.log( `- ${currentPath}`);

    try {
        const packageJsonContents = getEditedFileContents(currentPath + '/package.json');
        const packageJson = JSON.parse(packageJsonContents);
        if(packageJson.accordproject) {
            return currentPath;
        }
    }
    catch(err) {
        connection.console.log( `- exception ${err}`);
        currentPath = path.normalize(path.join(currentPath, '..'));
    }
}

connection.console.log( `Failed to find template path for ${pathStr}`);
const error = {message: `${pathStr} is not a sub-folder of an Accord Project template. Ensure a parent folder contains a valid package.json.`};
pushDiagnostic(DiagnosticSeverity.Error, textDocument, error, 'template', diagnosticMap);
return null;

}
`

When I run cicero parse or archive I get a model error every time. I upload the same code to Template Studio and if validates and I can create a CTA from template studio.

The error:
cicero archive --template rideshare-driver-requirements-service --archiveFile rideshare-driver-requirements-service
11:05:53 AM - error: Failed to find an asset that extends org.accordproject.cicero.contract.AccordClause in rideshare-driver-requirements-service. The model for the template must contain a single asset that extends org.accordproject.cicero.contract.AccordClause.

Tasks

• Implement updated Accord Project documentation.

In a cicero file, 'Date' is recognised by the VSCode Extension (and given a pretty green colour), but not DateTime is not recognised:

DateTime is a cicero primitive.

This will provide users snippets for the ergo language. They don't have to write a template for every time they just have to type some keyword and they get a template for the class.

It is very similar to concerto issue #38.

I will soon land a pr for this feature :)
