Introduction

dsh-input-plus

Awesome DSH Plugin

中文说明

An input composer enhancement plugin for the DSH Web UI. On the Host side, it builds an index of the active workspace. In the browser, it connects to DSH's official @ input trigger so files and directories can be searched and inserted into the composer. Type /h to open a candidate menu of previous prompts from the current Session.

Features

@ file and directory path selection

Type @ in the DSH composer, then continue with a file name, directory name, or path fragment. The candidate menu lists files and directories from the current Session workspace. After selection, the draft keeps a plain-text path reference, for example:

@src/contract.ts

The reference contains only the path. Sending the message does not read the file, expand the directory, or generate a directory manifest. When the model needs the target, it can inspect the path with the native workspace tools provided by the current Session.

After selecting a directory, you can continue with an instruction:

@src Find the code responsible for candidate ranking

The official input-trigger pipeline owns the candidate menu, caret, and write-back behavior. This plugin does not replace the official textarea, send button, or candidate menu, and it does not take over native arrow-key behavior.

/h input history

Type /h in the composer to open the history candidate menu through DSH's official / input trigger. You can continue typing a keyword to filter the results, for example:

/h

The candidates contain only user prompts that were successfully submitted in the current Session, ordered from most recent to oldest.

Installation

Requires DSH 0.1.0-rc.6 or a compatible DSH Web profile. Install through the official DSH profile plugin flow:

dsh plugin --profile web add https://github.com/WhitePlusMS/dsh-input-plus/archive/refs/tags/v0.0.2.tar.gz

GitHub tag installation consumes the committed lib/ Host and Client artifacts directly. Before creating or updating an installation tag, run pnpm run build and include the generated lib/ directory in the commit; installing a source-only archive will fail because the package entry points resolve to lib/index.js and lib/client.js.

Configuration

The plugin registers the input-plus settings namespace. The options used by workspace indexing and path resolution are:

OptionDefaultRangeDescription
maxIndexDepth30–10Maximum workspace indexing depth
maxIndexEntries2001–2000Maximum number of entries retained per candidate index
referenceRoot''Absolute path or emptyOverrides the current Session workspace; empty uses the Session workspace

Development

Requirements: Node.js 18+ and pnpm.

pnpm install

# TypeScript type checking
pnpm run typecheck

# Run the in-process test suite
pnpm test

# Build the Host and browser bundles
pnpm run build

# Check that lib/client.js is synchronized with the source
pnpm run check:client

The build has two parts:

  • tsc -p tsconfig.build.json generates the Host code and declaration files;
  • scripts/build-client.mjs uses the TypeScript Compiler API to generate lib/client.js in-process, avoiding an esbuild service subprocess in restricted environments.
