About Matlab Code Run
Matlab Code Run Extension for VS Code
Run Matlab code straight from VS Code!
This plugin is currently under development and has not yet been tested extensively. If there are any issues, feel free to open an issue in the Github repo!
Currently only tested on Mac OS, but it will probably also work on Linux. Due to how Matlab runs on Windows, I am uncertain whether this would also work on Windows systems. Feedback on this would be great!
How To Use
Open the command palette (under "View" or with shortcut ctr+shift+p) and find the "Run Matlab File" command.
Features
Running code straight from VS Code without having to open the full Matlab GUI. Non graphical output will be displayed in the built-in VS Code terminal. Graphs will be openend in a separate window. Debugging is not available and that'll probably not change in the foreseeable future as the current implementation does not allow for this.
Requirements
Currently, matlab has to be added to your system's PATH. Otherwise, the extension will not know where Matlab is installed on your system.
Known Issues
• No extensive testing has been done. This list will probably grow...
