MLXPRS: MarkLogic Extension for Visual Studio Code

Develop, run, and debug code for MarkLogic in the popular VS Code IDE

Visual Studio Code, also known as VS Code, is a free, cross-platform code editor and development tool from Microsoft. MLXPRS is a free, open-source extension for VS Code that increases the productivity of developers creating applications on MarkLogic.

Features

  • Syntax highlighting and IntelliSense for MarkLogic Server-Side JavaScript and XQuery
  • Interactive debugging of JavaScript and XQuery running in MarkLogic, including attaching to in-flight requests and inspecting live variables
  • Real-time query evaluation of JavaScript, XQuery, SQL, SPARQL, Optic, and GraphQL against a MarkLogic instance
  • View modules (read-only) in the editor
  • Run marklogic-unit-test module
  • Validate TDE templates and test the templates with node extraction
  • View high-level information about the currently connected MarkLogic server

JavaScript debugging requires version 2.0.0+ of the MarkLogic extension and MarkLogic 10.0-4+.

Credit

Aside from excellent development and extension support from Visual Studio Code,

  • Portions of Josh Johnson's vscode-xml project are re-used for XML formatting. The MIT license and source code are kept in the client/xmlFormatting folder of this project.
  • Christy Haragan's marklogic-node-typescript-definitions made this project possible.
  • Paxton Hare's marklogic-sublime xquery-ml.tmLanguage code is used for XQuery-ML syntax and snippets, and the MarkLogic Sublime project inspired this one.
