VSCode task integration

This extension lets VSCode tasks use mise tasks. You can use mise tasks in your launch.json file. This allows you to create your own shortcuts to run tasks

    "version": "2.0.0",
    "tasks": [
        {
            "type": "mise",
            "task": "build-my-app",
            "label": "Build my app",
            "watch": true
        }
    ]
}

  • task: The mise task to execute
  • watch: Re-run the task when files change
  • miseEnv: The mise env to use (optional, will use the default miseEnv if not provided)
  • glob: Glob pattern to watch for changes. Defaults to sources from the tasks
