FLINT editor extension for Visual Studio Code

Very much in development.

Functionalities

For all acts, facts and duties:

• Index in tree-view
• Jump to definition
• Find references
• Autocompletion

Validation:

• Warnings and errors based on law-reg validation logic
• Validation using json-schema, including snippets for auto-insertion

Execution:

• Running a FLINT model in the Compliance by Design demo (Ctrl + shift + P, then type Run Flint)

Configuration needed for execution

In order to run a model, some configuration is needed to run. This can be configured on a folder-basis. (Right click on the empty space in a vscode folder, navigate to Extensions -> FLINT editor, click Edit settings.json)

Example config:

Actors are all actors specified, factFunctionSpec links different facts to those actors. Active actors are the (exactly 2) actors that are shown in the interface.

{
    "flinteditor.run_configuration": {
        "name": "ANLb",
        "actors": ["RVO", "collectief"],
        "activeActors": ["RVO", "collectief"],
        "factFunctionSpec": {
            "[RVO]": "RVO",
            "[agrarisch collectief]": "collectief"
          }
    }
}

Package
