Tye Explorer for Visual Studio

I just really wanted to easily attach a debugger to a service run by Tye. So here's a quick and simple Visual Studio extension to do so.

Feel free to open an issue for bug reports or feature requests!

Features

• A simple overview of running services and replicas
• A shortcut to the Tye dashboard
• Show the output (logs) of a service
• Attach a debugger to:
  • a specific service
  • a specific replica
  • all running services (option to exclude specific services or replicas)
  • the startup projects of the loaded solution

Installing

The extension can be found on the Visual Studio Marketplace https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ikkentim.TimsTyeExplorer22 . Install the extension through from the marketplace or directly from the extensions manager in Visual Studio.

How to use

• Run tye from your favorite command prompt
• Open the explorer through View -> Other Windows -> Tye Explorer
