Autoschematic

The recommended method of installing Autoschematic is with pip.

pip install autoschematic

If you prefer to build from source, or through cargo install, see 'Building From Source'.

There's also an extension available for Visual Studio Code users. We highly recommend this extension if you use Visual Studio Code. It allows you to diff and import resources against remote state, and make use of the language server and other useful integrations.

Raise an issue on Github if you'd like the extension ported to your preferred editor. The core uses the standard LSP protocol and should be easy to adapt.

Once you have Autoschematic installed, verify it by running autoschematic at the command line. You should see the standard help listing as below:
