Connecting IBM Wazi for VS Code

You can connect IBM Z Open Editor with Zowe Explorer in VS Code. Before you begin, ensure that you set up Z Open Editor with Zowe CLI and are familiar with the basic operations.

Open the zopeneditor-sample you cloned as a workspace and make sure that you are in the wazi-main branch. Then, follow these steps:

• Setting up Ansible for IBM Wazi

  Ansible and the Red Hat Ansible Certified Content for IBM Z collections provide important capabilities that help administrators with enterprise automation scenarios and help developers automate their development setup.

• Configuring your development workspace with Ansible

  With Ansible available in your development workspace, you can run the configuration scripts that are provided in the ansible folder.

• Configuring your development workspace manually and shell scripts

  If you do not have Ansible available on your development machine or no public ssh key is configured for the VSI, you can still connect to the VSI by using VS Code with Zowe Explorer.
