GLSL Linting for Visual Studio Code

This extension supports linting of GLS (OpenGL Shading Language). It uses the OpenGL and OpenGL ES shader validator Every shader type which is supported by the glslangValidator can be validated.

Features

• Linting GLSL Shader files
• Supporting glslify
• Linting Shader code in string literals

Requirements

• Visual Studio Code 1.34.0
• The Shader languages support for VS Code extension
• The OpenGL and OpenGL ES shader validator

Extension Settings

This extension contributes the following settings: All settings are prefixed with glsllint.

Setting	Default	Description
glslangValidatorPath	""	The path to the glslangValidator executable, let it empty when have it in $PATH
glslangValidatorArgs	""	Arguments for the glslangValidator executable (e.g: using -V for vulkan shaders), string or array of strings
additionalStageAssociations	{}	Additonal file extension -> glslangValidator stage mapping. Format: {".EXT": "STAGEID"}, example see below
fallBackStage	""	Fallback stage for when the shader stage could not be determined, see Available stages below
supportedLangsWithStringLiterals	["javascript", "javascriptreact", "typescript", "typescriptreact", "elm" ]	VSCode language id's to support for string literal validation
linkShader	true	Link all input files together to form a single module ('-l' option for glslangValidator, used for includes)
useIncludeDirOfFile	true	Add -I[DIR_OF_FILE] to the glslangValidator command
languageSettings.[LANGID]	see below	Settings per language VScode language ID, there are built in configurations for JS, JSX, TS, TSX and ELM.
glslifyPattern	#pragma glslify:	Regex pattern for glslify pragma
glslifyAutoOpenOnError	true	Opens the glslified code when there is a linting error
glslifyOptions.basedir	""	Specify the base directory for glslify.compile()
glslifyUseCurrentFileAsBasedir	false	Use the current file as the base directory for glslify (only if glslifyOptions.basedir is not set)

additionalStageAssociations example

"glsllint.additionalStageAssociations": {
  ".fs": "frag",
  ".vs": "vert"
}

Built-in mappings:

{
  ".vert": "vert", // for a vertex shader
  ".vs": "vert", // for a vertex shader
  ".frag": "frag", // for a fragment shader
  ".fs": "frag", // for a fragment shader
  ".gs": "geom", // for a geometry shader
  ".geom": "geom", // for a geometry shader
  ".comp": "comp", // for a compute shader
  ".tesc": "tesc", // for a tessellation control shader
  ".tese": "tese", // for a tessellation evaluation shader
  ".rgen": "rgen", // for a ray generation shader
  ".rint": "rint", // for a ray intersection shader
  ".rahit": "rahit", // for a ray any hit shader
  ".rchit": "rchit", // for a ray closest shader
  ".rmiss": "rmiss", // for a ray miss shader
  ".rcall": "rcall", // for a ray callable shader
  ".mesh": "mesh", // for a mesh shader
  ".task": "task" // for a task shader
}

Available stages:

["vert", "frag", "geom", "comp", "tesc", "tese", "rgen", "rint", "rahit", "rchit", "rmiss", "rcall", "mesh", "task"]
