  • edit somewhere_dir/something.txt show filename in console from the task labeled "show_filename".

  • edit (workspace_root)/js/something.js run JavaScript on node command in the task labeled "run_js".

  • edit (workspace_root)/index.html run the task labeled "show_filename" to open index.html in browser.(in Windows)

  • edit somewhere_dir/index-1234.html

  • edit somewhere_dir/index-256.html open index-{number}.html in browser (in Windows)

How to get part of changed file

  1. define in "inputs" section like the following.
    "inputs": [
        {
            "id": "inputId",
            "type": "command",
            "command": "watch-run.getFilename",
            "args" : "run_js"
        }
    ]
  • the "args" is the same as the label of task.
  1. use ${input:inputId} in command of task to get the path.
