Ideas for the official Liquibase-VS Code extension?

Hey all devs using VS Code!

I am a Liquibase PM and we are developing a new Liquibase-VS Code extension — and I have some questions.

Up front, let me say, we are definitely planning changelog and changesets snippets/templates/auto-complete in all formats (xml, formatted sql, yaml, json) for generating these items, followed by validation options for existing changelogs and changetsets. Additionally you should be able to run commands from the VS Code command palette.

What would you like to see in this extension? Where do you have the most frictions? Whatever broad or specific level of detail you want to share or questions to ask, please do.

thanks!

Great to hear about an upcoming plugin!
To me, it would be crucially important, that I can use the auto-complete alongside other auto-complete plugins. For example, I am using the SQL Developer Extension from Oracle for my SQL Changelogs so I can get auto-complete for my tables etc. I would like to keep this auto-complete and also have the one for Liquibase. Is that possible?

hey @WayneNani – good call, and yes we’ll work to make that true. I dont know that specific extension, or why they wouldnt be compatible, but we’ll dig into it, and aim to have the extensions work together.

thanks for the suggestion!
