digitalmars.D.announce - code-d 0.12.0 - The user friendly release (code-d for noobs)

reply WebFreak001 <janju007 web.de> writes:
I've been working a lot on the new features for code-d to improve 
the user experience for new users and lower the barrier of 
creating D projects.

The new release contains:
* dub.json editor GUI [1] <- biggest one this update
* creation of D projects from templates [2]
* detection of missing tools & installation
* helping user setup paths for auto completion

The dub.json GUI is designed like the project settings from 

interface to set all values. Only dependencies are currently a 
bit less friendly to use due to limitations of the HTML preview 
of vscode. Currently the editor as well as most other code-d 
features don't support sub-packages yet.

Also I have made a few templates [3] (10 as of now) for project 
creation which is basically like dub init from the IDE. If anyone 
has made some common library like gtk-d, dlangui or vibe.d and 
wants to include a project template in code-d, just PR or post an 
issue on the project page https://github.com/Pure-D/code-d


Getting the newest release is really easy now, as workspace-d and 
other dependencies will be installed for you. Simply get vscode 
and use the extension manager to install code-d. You should be 
guided through the rest using some notification messages at the 
top.

If you find any issues in this new release please post an issue 
on the project page. Thanks for taking your time to read this.

 WebFreak001: I too am curious as to why you chose to support two obscure
editors rather than Sublime as your first supported editors. (Obscure
compared to Sublime anyway).

First thing that comes to mind is Sublime is closed source, then one thinks
why not limetext, then I realise that feels like a tip of the hat to
#golang which feels like betrayal in some ways :D.

Really like what you are doing with workspace-d regardless of the Sublime
Text support.

PS: is it because those two editors are JS based?
PS2: dml completion...nice! Really want to try that out since dlangui got
console support.

well having JS support is great because it means I don't need to 
port my code, but I didn't add support to sublime because I never 
used it. Especially the fact that you can buy it makes me wanna 
not get it becuase that means the free version has some 
disadvantages to the paid version. And its just a simple text 
editor, not really wanting to pay for that. Especially for that 
price.

I haven't used anything else since I started using Sublime because of
CTRL+d (multi select the next match of my current selection) and fuzzy
search of the available commands.

Agreed
sublime has something that don't let me give it up... It lacks some 
features of course, but nevertheless I can't to switch to something else.

Both Atom and Vscode have the ctrl+d feature and should have the 
fuzzy features (I don't remember).

After all Atom and Vscode are open source clones of Sublime.

Awesome. Sublime-D seems pretty good. I was surprised it came 
with the ability to build D-code built in. I don't see any kind 
of file/project browser though..will symbols still be recognized

uh I'm still working on the plugin. Building probably comes from 
sublime because sublime-d doesn't currently add anything except 
auto completion, goto definition and documentation when hovering 
over something. Searching for symbols will be implemented and 
outlining the current file might get implemented like in code-d 
with a list of all symbols on command.

The disadvantage is that it puts "UNLICENSED" in the titlebar and pops up 
a request that you purchase it every now and then -- I don't recall how 
frequently, but I don't think it was more than twice a week.

Thank you!

Windows 7 x64

I'm trying:
1. Create new project (empty console application)

Sometime within this step I got one of these errors (or both):

a) 
std.exception.ErrnoException C:\D\dmd2\windows\bin\..\..\src\phobo
\std\stdio.d(2543):  (Bad file descriptor)

reproduce: create the project, close IDE (and don't do "close 
folder"). Delete all files from project's directory. Run IDE and 
try create project again.

b) std.socket.SocketOSException std\socket.d(2777): Unable to 
connect socket: No connection could be made because the target 
machine actively refused it.
(problem with dcd-client or dcd-server as I understand)

Sometime second error also appears after IDE closed (also once I 
had "dcd-server.exe has stopped working" error)


2. Run created project using "code-d: run project",
result is:

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.
Not enough storage is available to process this command.

f:\projects\dlang\coded_test>


Sometime if I trying run "Empty DlangUI Application" then I have 
this error:
command 'code-d.run' not found
(for example, when try to run immediately after creation).

Yeah I know about this one because it also keeps happening to me. 
Not really high priority right now because its just happening 
when you close vscode. But I need to find out why this happens in 
the future.

 I had "dcd-server.exe has stopped working" error)


Never had that happen before

Uh... `code-d: run project` is just opening a terminal and run 
`dub` in there with some other arguments. Idk why this would 
result in "not enough storage space available"


 Sometime if I trying run "Empty DlangUI Application" then I 
 have this error:
 command 'code-d.run' not found

This happens if it isn't done initializing yet

What I really wish I had was integration with the compilation

Debugging is probably a pipedream, no?

code-d runs dub to get the compiler errors and display them, just 
press the errors/warnings button at the bottom left.

Debugging is also implemented if you install my second extension 
if you search for `webfreak.debug` in the extension search. Then 
using the code-d debug button in the statusbar you can debug your 
app. Works on linux, windows and osx assuming you have the 
debuggers installed (on windows if you magically get gdb or lldb 
working then thats great but otherwise there is also Mago/MI 
support)

oh right there is some bug on mac causing most features to not 
work, not really sure why. It just gets stuck in some system call 
(process spawn)

But that should only affect auto completion, static code analysis 
and make code formatting delayed. Showing dub errors should still 
work

I don't see any code-d debug button in the statusbar. In any 
case, I don't know if this is supposed to work if the basic 
code-d building doesn't work (although without any visible

I'm trying to use VSCode/mac-os and getting some errors.

First, I tried to install all the required tools, and got an

experimental allocators. Updating dmd fixed this, but there 
didn't seem to be any explicit check/message that dmd was out of

After updating DMD, 3 of the tools seemed to have installed 
correctly, but I am still getting this error:

"workspace-d is not installed or points to a folder"

I tried setting "d.workspacedPath" in user settings to the 
executable in the /Users/me/.vscode/extensions/... folder, but it 
still doesn't work.

Also, unrelated to the above, I've set"d.stdlibPath" to the 
appropriate paths, but completion still doesn't work. I'm 
guessing workspace-d not being found has something to do with 
this..?

Anyways, thanks for the good work. Can't wait to get this thing

auto completion won't appear when workspace-d is not installed, 
workspace-d is the thing that calls all of the other executables. 
Try deleting the executable from

Sorry, I expected a "./bin" folder or something. "workspace-d" 
was sitting in the root folder.

I've set "d.workspacedPath" to the path of the new file and it 
seems to have suppressed the error, but completion still isn't 
working. When I open a single file, I get no errors, but when I 
put a d file in a folder and opened the folder with VSCode, I got 
this:

"Could not initialize DCD. See console for details!"
I've checked all the consoles I could find in VSCode, and can't 
find any details.
