Node Js Visual Studio 2019

I am amazed at the adoption of Visual Studio Code by developers from all platforms and languages. According to the 2019 Stack Overflow Developer Survey, VS Code is dominating. The primary reasons I use VS Code are its great support for debugging JavaScript and Node.js code, and how easy it is to customize with free extensions available in Visual Studio Marketplace.

Working with MongoDB. Visual Studio Code has great support for working with MongoDB databases, whether your own instance or in Azure with MongoDB Atlas.With the MongoDB for VS Code extension, you can create, manage, and query MongoDB databases from within VS Code.

I try to keep my code as simple as possible and not nest too many things.

However, there are thousands of extensions available! How do you know which ones are good to use?

One way is to look at an extensions average rating and the number of downloads to gauge its popularity. Another way is to read personal opinion posts like this one. And here you are!

Here are my top picks for Visual Studio Code extensions for Node.js developers.

Bracket Pair Colorizer 2

I try to keep my code as simple as possible and not nest too many things. Unfortunately, sometimes it is unavoidable. Bracket Pair Colorizer 2 colorizes matching brackets, making it easier to visually see which opening and closing brackets, braces, or parentheses belong to each other.

npm

The npm extension provides two features: running npm scripts defined in the package.json in the editor and validating the packages listed in the package.json.

npm Intellisense

The npm Intellisense extension introduces autocomplete behavior when you use require() to import modules into your code.

ESLint

When I initialize a new Node.js project folder, the first thing I install from the terminal is ESLint.

Install Node Js Visual Studio 2019

The ESLint extension uses your local ESLint and configured rules to look for common patterns and issues in JavaScript code, and is designed to help you write better code with fewer bugs. ESLint can also reformat your code to make it more consistent, depending on the rules you have enabled for your project. Be sure to enable Auto Fix On Save ('eslint.autoFixOnSave': true) in your VS Code settings.

You can initialize an ESLint configuration file in your project with this command.

My current .eslintrc.js looks like the following.

Code Spell Checker

I don’t know about you, but it really bugs me when I discover I’ve misspelled function names, variables, comments, or anything else in my code. Misspelled code, as long as it’s consistently misspelled, works fine, but mistakes can still be frustrating or embarrassing.

Well, those days are over with Code Spell Checker! One nice thing is the extension understands camelCase, PascalCase, snake_case, and more. Another great feature is there are dictionaries available for Spanish, French, German, Russian, and a number of other languages.

Auto Close Tag

More recent versions of VS Code automatically create closing tags when you are working in an HTML or XML file. For other file types, such as JavaScript, Vue, and JSX, Auto Close Tag will save you some typing!

DotENV

It’s quite common to configure Node.js applications using environment variables. And, one of the most popular modules for managing environment variables is dotenv. The DotENV extension for VS Code adds convenient syntax highlighting when editing a .env file.

Path Intellisense

The Path Intellisense extension adds autocomplete support for file paths and names, reducing typing as well as the introduction of bugs related to wrong paths.

MarkdownLint

Good code and good documentation go hand-in-hand. I prefer to write README’s and other documentation in markdown format. The Markdownlint extension can help you make sure your markdown syntax is in good form!

Material Icon Theme

The Material Icon Theme adds a ton of icons to VS Code for different file types. Being able to quickly distinguish different files in project can be a great time saver!

Honorable Mention VS Code Extensions for Node.js

These extensions didn’t make the top 10 list, but are still useful in some scenarios for Node.js developers!

Encode Decode - Adds commands to quickly convert text to and from various formats, such as Base64, HTML entities, and JSON byte arrays.
Rest Client - Make HTTP requests directly from your editor and view the responses in a separate window. Great for testing and prototyping APIs.
Better Comments - This extension helps you create more “human-friendly” comments by adding highlights to different types of comments.

Visual Studio Code has great support for working with MongoDB databases, whether your own instance or in Azure with MongoDB Atlas. With the MongoDB for VS Code extension, you can create, manage, and query MongoDB databases from within VS Code.

Install the extension

MongoDB support for VS Code is provided by the MongoDB for VS Code extension. To install the MongoDB for VS Code extension, open the Extensions view by pressing ⇧⌘X (Windows, Linux Ctrl+Shift+X) and search for 'MongoDB' to filter the results. Select the MongoDB for VS Code extension.

Connect to MongoDB

Once you've installed the MongoDB for VS Code extension, you'll notice there is a new MongoDB Activity Bar view. Select the MongoDB view and you'll see the MongoDB Explorer.

To connect to a MongoDB database, select Add Connection and enter the connection details for the database then Connect, the default is a local MongoDB server at mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017. You can also enter a connection string, click the 'connect with a connection string' link and paste the connection string.

Note: Make sure your MongoDB server (mongod.exe) is running if you are connecting to a local MongoDB server.

Once attached, you can work with the MongoDB server, managing MongoDB Databases, Collections, and Documents.

You can expand databases to view their collections with their schema and indexes and you can select individual MongoDB Documents to view their JSON.

You can also attach a MongoDB shell to the active connection, simply by right-clicking on the connection itself.

Note: Make sure the MongoDB shell (mongo or mongosh) is installed and is on your path. In the extension's settings, you can choose which shell you are using.

MongoDB Commands

There are MongoDB specific commands available in the VS Code Command Palette (⇧⌘P (Windows, Linux Ctrl+Shift+P)) as well as through Explorer context menus.

Using Playgrounds

One of the most powerful features of the VS Code MongoDB integration is Mongo Playgrounds. Playgrounds let you create, run, and save MongoDB commands from a VS Code editor. Create a new playground with the MongoDB: Create MongoDB Playground command.

In a playground, you can reference MongoDB entities and commands and you get rich IntelliSense as you type. Playgrounds are useful for prototyping database operations and queries. Execute selected lines in the playground queries with the MongoDB: Run Selected Lines From Playground command.

MongoDB on Azure

You can easily create a MongoDB cluster on Azure for Free with MongoDB Atlas.

Choose Create a New Cluster from the dashboard and choose Azure as the Cloud Provider. Download utorrent mac 10.6 8. Once the cluster is created, connect to using the connection string provided by MongoDB Atlas.
