OPL Language

Professional VSCode support for OPL (One Piece Language), a lightweight programming language with pirate syntax, an AST interpreter, bytecode VM, diagnostics, and debugger tooling.

Quickstart

1. Install the OPL runtime:

python -m pip install oplang

1. Install this VSCode extension.

2. Open any .opl file.

3. Run from a terminal:

opl run file.opl

1. Debug from VSCode with the included Run OPL launch configuration, or run:

opl debug file.opl

Features

• Syntax highlighting for .opl files
• File icon support for .opl files
• Bracket auto-closing for {}, [], and ()
• Indentation support for functions, models, loops, and conditionals
• Snippets for common OPL patterns
• Autocomplete for functions, models, variables, methods, and standard library symbols
• Diagnostics for syntax and semantic issues
• Hover, go-to-definition, document symbols, and workspace symbols
• Editor title buttons for running and debugging the current .opl file
• Explorer context menu actions for running and debugging .opl files
• VSCode debugger integration with breakpoints, stepping, stack frames, and variables

File Extension

OPL uses one official source file extension:

.opl

Example

Pirate syntax:

dfruit add(a, b):
    return a + b

bounty result = add(2, 3)
say result

Core syntax:

fn add(a, b) {
    return a + b
}

let result = add(2, 3)
print(result)

Debugging

Use the default launch configuration:

{
  "type": "opl",
  "request": "launch",
  "name": "Run OPL",
  "program": "${file}"
}

Set breakpoints in .opl files, press F5, step through execution, and inspect variables in the VSCode debugger panels.

You can also use the editor title Debug button or right-click a .opl file in the Explorer and choose Debug OPL File.

Requirements

This extension expects the OPL runtime tools to be available through Python:

python -m pip install oplang

The runtime provides:

• opl
• opl-lsp
• opl-dap

If VSCode cannot find your Python installation, set OPL_PYTHON to the Python executable that has oplang installed.

Snippets

• dfruit creates a function
• model creates a model with a spawn constructor
• for creates a for-in loop
• if creates an if statement

Extension Development

For maintainers working on the extension internals:

• OPL_LSP_PATH can point to a local language server script.
• OPL_DAP_PATH can point to a local debug adapter script.
• Publish a patch release only after reviewing the Marketplace README:
