The Spectral VS Code Extension brings the power of Spectral to your favorite editor.

Spectral is a flexible object linter with out of the box support for OpenAPI v2 and v3, JSON Schema, and AsyncAPI.

• Lint-on-save
• Lint-on-type
• Custom ruleset support (.spectral.json, .spectral.yaml, .spectral.yml or .spectral.js)
• Intellisense for custom ruleset editing
• Support for JSON and YAML input

• Node.js ^12.21 or >=14.13
• Visual Studio Code version 1.48 or higher.

• Install from the Visual Studio Code Marketplace
• Install via the CLI: code --install-extension stoplight.spectral

This extension contributes the following settings:

• spectral.enable: Controls whether or not Spectral is enabled.
• spectral.rulesetFile: Location of the ruleset file to use when validating. If omitted, the default is a .spectral.(json|yaml|yml) in the same folder as the document being validated. Paths are relative to the workspace. This can also be a remote HTTP url.
• spectral.run: Run the linter on save (onSave) or as you type (onType).
• spectral.validateFiles: An array of file globs (e.g., **/*.yaml) which should be validated by Spectral. If language identifiers are also specified, the file must match both in order to be validated. You can also use negative file globs (e.g., !**/package.json) here to exclude files.
• spectral.validateLanguages: An array of language IDs (e.g., yaml, json) which should be validated by Spectral. If file globs are also specified, the file must match both in order to be validated.
