# Open in VSCode workflow
[](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release)
[](https://github.com/whomwah/alfred-vscode-workflow/releases/latest)
alfred-vscode-workflow
Searches for local Git repos based on the path of your choice and allows you to
open them in VSCode. It uses [Deno](https://deno.land/). It's written in
[TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/).
### Install
The project and workflow requires the [Deno](https://deno.land/) binary to be
installed. This can be done simply from the [Deno](https://deno.land/) website
above.
> [Deno](https://deno.land/) is a runtime for JavaScript.
> [Deno](https://deno.land/) was co-created by Ryan Dahl, who also created
> Node.js.
We also need `findd`:
- [`findd`](https://github.com/whomwah/findd) - A tiny little utility that does
the magic of finding all the repos really really fast.
The easiest way to install `findd` is via `homebrew` (the same with `deno`):
```
$ brew install deno
$ brew install whomwah/tap/findd
```
Once installed you can
[download the latest version](https://github.com/whomwah/alfred-vscode-workflow/releases/latest)
and double click the `.workflow` file to open and install or update.
## Usage
Initially you will need to choose a folder to scan for projects in the workflow
`config`. Don't choose `~` for example as scanning your home directory may cause
the scanning script to be just too slow to return anything. It's much better to
choose for example `~/my-projects`.
By default you access the workflow via the `vs` command.
There is only one top level command. Other than that you just start typing a
`project` name you are interested in. Once you start seeing results pressing
return will attempt to open that project in VSCode.
```bash
# Settings
vs > ...
# Anything else
vs ...
```
## Development
You will first need to install `deno` as mentioned earlier in this README.
### Tests
`deno task test`
### Formatting
`deno fmt`
### Build your own workflow
You can also build your own version of the workflow with:
```
./bin/build_release
# example
./bin/build_release 1.2.3 blabla
```
