Unofficial VS Code extension to launch Rerun viewers and open Rerun .rrd recording files directly in Visual Studio Code.

✨ Features

  • 🔥 Open and view .rrd files directly in VS Code
  • 🔥 Automatic port-forwarding for .rrd files via Remote-SSH and GitHub Codespaces
  • 🔥 Open a stand-alone web viewer via the Rerun: Open Viewer command

📦 Dependencies

The extension requires the rerun binary provided by rerun-sdk. Install it with:

pip install rerun-sdk

The binary is auto-detected from the active Python interpreter (requires the Python extension), or from PATH. You can also set an explicit path via the rerun.rerunPath setting.

⬇️ Installation

Install from the VS Code Marketplace or search for Rerun Viewer in the VS Code Extensions panel.

🚀 Usage

  • Double-click any .rrd file in the Explorer — it opens automatically in the Rerun web viewer.
  • Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P / Cmd+Shift+P) → Rerun: Open Viewer to open a stand-alone viewer.

⚙️ Configuration

Setting Default Description
rerun.rerunPath "" Explicit path to the rerun binary. Leave empty for auto-detection.
