🔌 Configuration IDE / Editor

Starting from v5.1.0, We recommend using the launchEditor option configuration to specify the IDE (Please ensure that the editor's environment variables are correctly configured beforehand.)

It uses an environment variable named LAUNCH_EDITOR to specify an IDE application, but if you do not set this variable, it will try to open a common IDE that you have open or installed once it is certified.

For example, if you want it always open VS Code when inspection clicked, set export LAUNCH_EDITOR=code in your shell.

VS Code

  • install VS Code command line tools, see the official docs install-vscode-cli

  • set env to shell, like .bashrc or .zshrc

    export LAUNCH_EDITOR=code

VS Code with WSL (Windows)

  • add the configuration in the settings.json

  • restart the VS Code (All Windows should be closed to take effect)

{
  // other config...

  "terminal.integrated.env.linux": {
    "EDITOR": "code"
  }
}

WebStorm

  • just set env with an absolute path to shell, like .bashrc or .zshrc (only MacOS)

    export LAUNCH_EDITOR='/Applications/WebStorm.app/Contents/MacOS/webstorm'

OR

  • install WebStorm command line tools

  • then set env to shell, like .bashrc or .zshrc

    export LAUNCH_EDITOR=webstorm

PhpStorm

  • just set env with an absolute path to shell, like .bashrc or .zshrc (only MacOS)

    export LAUNCH_EDITOR='/Applications/PhpStorm.app/Contents/MacOS/phpstorm'

OR

  • install PhpStorm command line tools

  • then set env to shell, like .bashrc or .zshrc

    export LAUNCH_EDITOR=phpstorm

Vim

Yes! you can also use vim if you want, just set env to shell

export LAUNCH_EDITOR=vim

💡 Notice

  • [BREAKING CHANGE] From v1.0, enabled option default value changed from true to false .
  • It only work in develop mode .
  • It does not currently support Template Engine (e.g. pug) .

👨‍💻 Programmatic Usage

You can also use control inspector programmatically, by accessing the __VUE_INSPECTOR__ global variable.

import type { VueInspectorClient } from 'vite-plugin-vue-inspector'

const inspector: VueInspectorClient = window.__VUE_INSPECTOR__

if (inspector) {
  // enable inspector
  inspector.enable()
  // or
  inspector.disable()
}
