Find Related Files

Finds files related to the current file based on user-defined configuration rules.

• Adds a Show Related Files command (findrelated.show) with a shortcut of alt+r to show a quick pick menu of files related to the active file

Basic support for the following languages/frameworks is built-in:

• minified CSS/JS files
• C, C++, C#
• ASP.NET
• ASP.NET MVC
• Aurelia
• Delphi
• Elixir
• Phoenix framework
• XAML

Please open new Github issues with any rules you'd like included in the built-in ruleset.

Example ruleset

[
	{
		"name": "minified",
		"rules": [
			{
				"pattern": "(.*?)(\\.min)?\\.(js|css)(?:\\.map)?$",
				"locators": ["{$1.$3,$1.min.$3,$1.$3.map,$1.min.$3.map}"]
			}
		]
	}
]

pattern - specifies a regex pattern to which this rule applies; Capture groups can be used as replacements in the locators locators - specifies the list of glob pattern locators that will be used to search for related files; $[0-9] can be use as replacement tokens from the capture groups in the pattern

Extension API

Find Related Files exports an API that can be used to expand its capabilities.

Example

let findRelated = extensions.getExtension('amodio.find-related');
let api = findRelated.exports;

let subscription1 = api.registerRuleset('static-rule', [
	{
		pattern: /* string -- regex pattern here */,
		locators: [/* string -- glob patterns here */]
	}
]);

let subscription2 = api.registerRuleset('dynamic-rule', [
	{
		match: (fileName: string) => /* matching logic here -- return a boolean */,
		provideRelated: (fileName: string, document: TextDocument, rootPath: string) => {
			return Promise.resolve([/* related uris here */]);
		}
	}
]);

// To remove a registered ruleset, just dispose its subscription
subscription1.dispose();
subscription2.dispose();
