Scripting Add-in for Visual Studio Code

Developers working with AVEVA Application Server scripting currently rely on limited editing capabilities within the existing tools. This makes scripting less efficient, especially for larger or more complex scripts, and does not leverage modern development workflows.

This idea proposes an official Application Server Scripting add-in/extension for Visual Studio Code (VS Code) to enable a modern, powerful, and developer-friendly scripting experience.

Proposed Functionality

The VS Code add-in should support:

  • Syntax highlighting for Application Server script language

  • Code completion / IntelliSense for objects, methods, and attributes

  • Error detection and basic linting

  • Code formatting and readability improvements

  • Easy navigation (go to definition, find references)

  • Integration with existing AVEVA Application Server projects (open/edit scripts externally)

  • Optional support for version control workflows (Git-friendly editing)

Benefits

  • Significantly improves scripting productivity and code quality

  • Enables use of modern development features already familiar to many engineers

  • Reduces errors and maintenance effort in complex Application Server solutions

  • Aligns AVEVA tooling with current industry standards for software development

  • Encourages wider adoption and better long-term maintainability of Application Server scripts

Target Users

  • System Platform / Application Server developers

  • Advanced integrators working with large or long-lived AVEVA projects
