Visual Studio Code

Install extension

Install the cquery extension from the marketplace here. The source code is located at https://github.com/cquery-project/vscode-cquery.

If you run into issues, you can view debug output by running the (F1) View: Toggle Output command and opening the cquery output section.

Setting up the extension

To tell the extension where to find cquery, either add cquery to your PATH or set "cquery.launch.command" in User Settings to the absolute path pointing to cquery.

{
    "cquery.launch.command": "/absolute/path/to/cquery/release/bin/cquery",
    "cquery.cacheDirectory": "/home/.cquery-cache/"
}

cquery.index.extraClangArguments

If for whatever reason you cannot generate a compile_commands.json file, you can add the flags to the cquery.index.extraClangArguments configuration option.
