If you are using the client-side mode of working, your nn setting needs to use the server property. The linking happens automatically if you added workspace folders from Server Manager as described above. When you have a folder or a workspace (including a multi-root one) open in VS Code, the Server Manager displays a 'Current' node at the start of its tree if your workspace references any server defined in Server Manager. If in doubt, limit yourself to isfs-readonly by only using the eye icon. The ObjectScript extension's README outlines the differences between client-side and server-side editing.

FOCUS VS QUICKPICK CODE

If you are already doing client-side editing of your code (for example, managing it with Git), be sure you understand the consequences of also doing server-side editing using isfs. Learn more about isfs and isfs-readonly folders in the InterSystems ObjectScript for VS Code documentation.

To add a folder that gives you access to server-side web application files (for example, CSP files), hold the Alt / Option key down as you click the button for the type of access you want.

Click the 'edit pencil' icon to add an isfs://server:namespace/ folder to your VS Code workspace, or use the 'viewing eye' icon to add an isfs-readonly://server:namespace/ one.

Hover over the target namespace to reveal its command buttons.

Expand the target server, then expand its 'Namespaces' folder.

The 'star' button that appears when you hover over the row lets you add the server to the Favorites list at the top of the tree. You can also set the color of the server icon.

Optionally use its context menu to store the password for the username you entered when defining the server. The server definition is added to your user-level settings.json file and also appears at the top of the 'Recent' folder. Expand All Servers to see your new entry in the tree.Click the ' +' button on Server Manager's title bar.' menu at the top right corner of Server Manager's tree. On Windows, Server Manager can create connection entries for all connections you previously defined with the original Windows app called InterSystems Server Manager. This is a more secure alternative to you putting them as plaintext in your JSON files. Server Manager can store connection passwords in the native keystore of your workstation's operating system. VS Code settings are arranged in a hierarchy that you can learn more about here. In common with the rest of VS Code, Server Manager stores your connection settings in JSON files. Add new servers, and edit existing ones.Add namespaces to your VS Code workspace for viewing or editing source code on the server, including web application (formerly CSP) files, with the ObjectScript extension.Launch the InterSystems Management Portal, either in a VS Code tab or in your default browser.

Server Manager displays connection definitions as a tree on an InterSystems Tools view:

Thanks to George James Software for backing this development effort.

This significant new release won the April 2021 InterSystems Programming Contest for Developer Tools. We are pleased to publish version 2.0 of this extension, adding a tree-style user interface. See the CHANGELOG for changes in each release. One example is the ObjectScript extension for code editing. These definitions can used by other VS Code extensions when they make connections. InterSystems Server Manager is a Visual Studio Code extension for defining connections to InterSystems servers.
