Edit: Fixed the problem nvm

Pic. 1 Intellisense and Autocompletion are in a mess. There's no expected referencing feature as well.

Pic. 2 Control Panel functions "doesn't exist"

I'm really not sure what causes this. What I've done is just install the extension and open my project folder.
I tried to factory-reset my vscode (not throughout) but nothing changes, so it won't be a extension conflict.

I'm using the current up-to-date version (2.4.3).

see https://github.com/WilliamVenner/vscode-glua-enhanced/blob/master/generator/scrape.py#L272-L273

I don't think the css is like that on the wiki at this time from a quick investigation.

https://wiki.facepunch.com/gmod/Global.CreateClientConVar has many default variables

pls give fork 4 sublime 🥴

Thank you for the awesome project!

I just wanted to kindly ask if you want to publish the add-on to the https://open-vsx.org/ repository. As this is an open alternative, that is used by default for open source builds of vscode (usually found as code on most Linux distributions). So it is available for them too, without installing it manually.

Keep up the cool work 🚀

For example, concommand.Add.
This function, when listing the arguments shows a function argument that correctly shows the arguments passed to that function when using function(ply,cmd,args,argStr)
However, when using a function that is already defined, (eg, local function TestFunc(ply,cmd)) it won't show what arguments are being passed to TestFunc()

edit: this isn't even proper lua apparently.
you can't pass Func(ply) as the argument for concommand.Add, it has to be function(ply) Func(ply) end or else attempt to index local 'ply' (a nil value) (scoping, I'm assuming.)

Pretty self explanatory. Would be nice to have support for surface.SetDrawColor(255,0,0) similar to how Color(255,0,0) works.

other notable methods which don't directly use the Color() table

• mesh.Color
• render.FogColor
• render.SetShadowColor
• surface.SetTextColor

sumneko.lua Is currently the best lua language server for VSCode and has been forked to be used as roblox/other lua based game scripting.
Based on that information, i think it is possible to use it as base for the next vesion of the extension, or, at least make it compatible.

Current incompatibility issues with any lua server:

• Having both extensions enabled will prevent the server from acting, since the extension changes lua extension to use glua language dict.
• Changing glua to lua on all references inside the extension makes the server break and stop while checking files on workspace, causing it to only get references from the current open files and considering any table inside a namespace as a global.

Standalone issues:

• Changes the syntax coloring

Please can you add the ability to rename a symbol/variable name? This is different to "Change all occurrences", as it recognises the difference between a variable name and a generic string.

This feature is included in the VSCode Lua extension:
https://github.com/sumneko/lua-language-server

However, if I enable both at once, this feature (along with a colouring of some things) is lost.

Your extension is awesome and by far more useful for Gmod lua, so I'll still use it anyway :) I really appreciate all the work and would be happy to help if I can.

Allow infering language modules, tables, classes and types from LuaDoc tags.

Currently, the presence of functions can be inferred, but not any documentation around them.

anytime I load a Lua file with the extension enabled, I see in the status bar that it attempts to scrape the wiki, and fails. It repeats this attempt to scrap about 3 times before the vscode extension host crashes.

has someone found a way to fix this?, I rather have a better fix than just bypassing the wiki scrap through opening diffrent files or enabling / disabling the extension to bypass this like i have to do now

The title and example image above should convey the problem well enough. :)

I am on windows 10. I use vs code 1.60.2
I followed this: https://wiki.facepunch.com/gmod/Lua_Editors to setup everything (the vs code part).
When I try to autocomplete, intelliSense give me that kind of things.

It does not even recognise the 'ply' (sometimes it does, it's random.).
I already tried to change some editor settings in the "settings.json" but nothing worked.
It event gives me unrelated things (see bellow).

I tried using RegionFolder with a custom configuration to be able to fold my code blocks. GLua files seem to prevent this extension from creating fold spaces even though the same file and configuration works with regular Lua.
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=maptz.regionfolder

To Replicate

I am using the following configuration for this extension in settings.json. This setup is identical to the one in the extension, but renamed for glua instead of lua.

    "maptz.regionfolder": {
        "[glua]": {
            "foldEnd": "--#endregion",
            "foldEndRegex": "--[\\s]*#endregion",
            "foldStart": " --#region [NAME]",
            "foldStartRegex": "--[\\s]*#region[\\s]*(.*)"
        }
    },

When the file is configured as GLua (bottom right language setting), the folding widgets do not appear even though regions are defined correctly.

After switching language to Lua, the fold widgets immediately become visible and can be used to collapse code.

If I switch back to GLua without folding anything, the fold widgets disappear.

Curiously however, if the fold regions are folded before switching from Lua to GLua, they remain folded and can be used without disappearing, persisting even after the file is closed and reopened and within new windows.

The ability to fold certain user-defined regions is super convenient for large, sectioned bulk files that have segments but no code blocks for each. If this can be resolved (or something similar implemented into GLua Enhanced) it'd be a great producibility tool.

How can i pick color ?

It works for addons with structures

lua/
materials/
models/
...

But for gamemodes it won't add the content folder with same structure

In function provideScopedCompletionItems

C-Style syntax and the continue statement are quite controversial. But given that this extension is specific for GMod's Lua it should be supported as like as the C-Style syntax is.

When I do a for loop and I write "do" and do a "ENTER" to go to the next line I have "DOF_Kill" that is overwrited the initial "do".

Pretty self explanatory

Bringing alpha slider back to 255 only removes 4th value from Color(), leaving (Color(33, 38, 43, 90) with just (Color(33, 38, 43, )

It would be handy if there were realm gutter icons for some obvious matches just as a reminder without having to ctrl+p inside a function's signature to double-check your scope.

a mockup of the feature

It would be cool if this extended to the file browser, for files matching conventions / the engine file list, and even cooler if it went further down into scopes to highlight weird stuff like if SERVER then function ENT:Draw() ... end end but gutter icons would be a good start.

In an ENT:Initialize() hook:

timer.Create("Test"..self:EntIndex(),
timer.Create("Test"..tostring(14),

Doesn't show the argument definitions/wiki window.

timer.Create("Test", self:EntIndex(),
timer.Create("Test".."Untest",

These will show the window correctly.

Whenever I try to run a GLua Enhanced Command in VSC I get this Error Message:

Command 'GLua Enhanced: Generate Bytecode Heatmap' resulted in an error (command 'glua-enhanced.bytecodeHeatmap' not found)

Same Error on all other commands.

It would be nice if we could use https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=aaron-bond.better-comments, but currently the inline comments are not working in combination with your extension.

I know just about nothing about making VSC extentions, so I'm unsure what information you need. But here is the logs.
https://pastebin.com/r3ZdJXbs

When indexing a table using a function from the wiki, the window showing the function arguments doesn't show up.
For example:

Table[net.ReadUInt(​)]

Recent issue I have noticed is that default enums aren't highlighted anymore.

When opening a local repo (cloned using git previously), it fails 5 times causing extension host to boom and some other extensions stop working too.
See the dev console log above for detail. I tried to uninstall glua-enhanced and it turned out just fine, but I hope that it will be fixed.
Before this happened, I was using VSCode but after that I switched to Insider but it didn't solve the issue with the extension enabled.

I'm rewriting the script in Lua but I am unsure if this behaves differently from continue used in other Lua versions such as Luau, Lua++ & etc.

What is the purpose of this continue statement, if anything?

end

just wanna say real quick this extension has been a real game changer for me and i barely have to look at the wiki now to lookup arguments and returns, bytecode heatmap has been helpful for micro-optimizing, too many useful things to note, best extension i have installed on vscode right now, next to comment anchors, thank you for coming to my ted talk

https://emmylua.github.io/index.html
Add EmmyLua support, Lets me make classes and then use IntelliSense in the rest of the workspace.

I am using the SSH extension to connect to a Windows server. Whenever I save, a prompt pops up that shows the aforementioned message. Shortly after, with the progress never moving beyond 0%, it disconnects the session and prompts "Cannot reconnect. Please reload the window".

The server is located in China and is likely unable to connect to GitHub directly. I am unsure whether this is the cause for this issue, however.

Hey there. I'm pretty new to WSL stuff however I developed under both Unix and Windows systems. I set up fresh WSL build and set up server, everything works fine (including all other extensions) except the globals scan. VSCode ceases to autocomplete global tables under WSL, but working under plain Windows just fine. If you need any additional reports, I would gladly send them if you tell me where to look

My setup: WSL2 running Ubuntu 20.04, host is Windows 10 build 19042, VSCode:

There is a script like glua, this script changes the icons of files, but for some reason your script reacts badly to it, because when you put it on, your color function does not work. Could you make the compatibility of these two scripts.

It would be great if extension had lua doc support.

Viewing any GLua file seems to trigger extension host crashes after updating VS Code (technically VSCodium) to 1.73.0

Bytecode analysis doesn't make sense and it will just confuse the retards who can't understand what is bytecode.
Also it depends of execution context of the said bytecode, bytecode heatmap checks the "cost" of an indidual call to the Instruction and operand, not what it actually does. Right, CALL costs 5 but what about the functions it calls ? You literally cannot know the actual cost of it without having runtime intelligence.
And everything here is when pretending nothing gets ever JIT compiled.

Function A can be faster than function B when both interpreted, but B can be faster then A when both are JIT Compiled.
(see ipairs/pairs performance on Interpreted vs JITed mode)

It literally doesn't make any sense in any of the possible cases.
Sure it's a fun project, but only useful projects needs to be implemented in others projects, not fun ones.

It would be MUCH MUCH better to do static code analysis on code and try to detect design flaws.

Examples :

• nested player.GetAll loops
• Static rendering code without using render target (iirc it's to save the result of a render) (example, the addon that adds license plates, he re-render the plates on each frames)

Type: Bug

It says its having some host connection issue.

I am on the latest version, and have even tried compiling the extension myself since it's a few commits ahead of the release, but no luck. References and definitions don't work for most functions and variables. References do not work at all, and definition only works sometimes on functions that are in the same file as your function call, and they don't work at all for "self" functions. Sometimes, the definition works between files (DefineModule works as expected), but I am unable to figure out why it works intermittently like this.

The wiki snippets work flawlessly, and the rest of the extension works, but these crucial features do not. Any help is appreciated!

probably a better way to get hex strings but that's one way

when writing invalid syntax in a file which isnt in a folder (only in memory/tmp), it freaks out and crashes the extension host lol

If this extension is enabled in a Code window that's connected to a server via SSH, the window will disconnect after ~20 seconds, every time. Once it's disabled, the disconnects stop. It works fine in a local window.

Hovering a string with an escape will crash the extension host

Steps to reproduce

1. Paste a string like this into your editor: 'test \n \n test \n'
2. Hover the string with the mouse
