Custom Editors

Visual SFCC editors in VS Code for pipeline XML graphs, site and Business Manager cartridge paths, log files, and localized resource bundles

The VS Code extension provides dedicated editors for SFCC file formats and cartridge paths. They keep raw source accessible while adding controls for graph editing, cartridge order, log analysis, and localization bundles

Pipeline XML opens as a graph: select a node to edit its properties, and set a breakpoint on it from the toolbar

Pipelines Editor

Files matching **/cartridge/pipelines/*.xml and **/pipelines/*.xml can open in the Intellij SFCC Pipeline Editor. Use it to edit the graph, navigate linked scripts, switch to XML source, and work with pipeline breakpoints. Follow the Pipelines Editor guide

Cartridge Path Editor

Open the cartridge path CodeLens in a local site.xml or Business Manager preferences.xml to add, remove, and reorder cartridge names. Changes update the source XML document. Follow the Cartridge Path Editor guide for the exact entry points and save workflow

Log File Editor

Files matching **/*.log can open in the Intellij SFCC Log File Editor. Use it for parsed entries, filters, histogram analysis, source context, raw mode, and Log Center workflows. Follow the Log File Editor guide for opening files and investigating entries

Resource Bundle Editor

Files matching **/cartridge/templates/resources/*.properties can open in the SFCC Resource Bundle Editor, the properties editor. Use it to compare one key across every locale and cartridge, fill missing values, add, rename, and delete keys, create locale files, and return to raw source. Follow the Resource Bundle Editor guide
