Project Manager

This extension is aiming to be a manager for all your local projects

Requisites

For a project to show up in the list it must be a valid git repo (it checks if exists a .git folder)

Config

Every project can have a customized config which tweaks the behaviour of the commands

For example you can define custom url placeholders with dynamicUrlElements to replace inside the template

In the case below the {project} placeholder will be replaced with custom-value

If {project} placeholder is not overwritten then the name key will be used as default

{
    "name": "project name",
    "description": "custom description used in detail page",
    "urls": {
        "local": "{project}.test",
        "production": "{project}.com"
    },
    "dynamicUrlElements": [{ "key": "project", "value": "custom-value" }],
    "developmentCommand": { "apps": ["editor"], "urls": ["{urls.local}"] }
}

Development command

developmentCommand has two keys:

• apps: valid options are editor and terminal
• urls: as shown above, you can reference any url present in urls by key {urls.local}

you can completely omit urls key if you don't want to open the project in a browser or you can provide terminal inside apps array to also open it inside your terminal app

"developmentCommand": { "apps": ["editor", "terminal"] }

Projects caching

Since this extension performs quite a lot of reads from the file system, it might be useful to enable projects caching in the extension preferences to avoid re-scanning every time the command is launched.

The cache can be manually cleared with the Clear Cache command (⌘ + ⇧ + ⌫)

Window resizing

In the extension preferences there is an option to enable window resizing/positioning which works only on the editor window
