Tasks manager within SpaceVim

Tasks

To integrate with external tools, SpaceVim introduce a task manager system,
which is similar to vscode tasks-manager. There are two kinds of task configuration
file: global tasks configuration(~/.SpaceVim.d/tasks.toml) and local configuration(.SpaceVim.d/tasks.toml).

Key Bindings	Descriptions
SPC p t e	edit tasks configuration file
SPC p t r	select task to run

Task auto-detection

SpaceVim currently auto-detects tasks for npm.
the tasks manager will paser the package.json file for npm systems.
If you have cloned the eslint-starter example,
then pressing SPC p t r shows the following list:

Custom tasks

this is basic task configuration for running echo hello world, and print results to runner windows.

[my-task]
    command = 'echo'
    args = ['hello world']

To run task in the background, you need to set isBackground to true:

[my-task]
    command = 'echo'
    args = ['hello world']
    isBackground = true

The task's properties have the following semantic:

• command: the actual command to execute.
• args: the arguments passed to the command. can be omitted.
• options: override the defaults for cwd,env or shell.

SpaceVim supports variable substitution in task, The following predefined variables are supported:

• ${workspaceFolder}: - the project root directory
• ${workspaceFolderBasename}: - the parent directory name of current project root
• ${file}: - the path of current file
• ${relativeFile}: - the current file relative to project root
• ${relativeFileDirname}: - the current file's dirname relative to workspaceFolder
• ${fileBasename}: - the current file's basename
• ${fileBasenameNoExtension}: - the current file's basename without file extension
• ${fileDirname}: - the current file's dirname
• ${fileExtname}: - the current file's extension
• ${cwd}: - the task runner's current working directory on startup
• ${lineNumber}: - the current selected line number in the active file

for example: Supposing that you have the following requirements:

A file located at /home/your-username/your-project/folder/file.ext opened in your editor;
The directory /home/your-username/your-project opened as your root workspace.
So you will have the following values for each variable:

• ${workspaceFolder}: - /home/your-username/your-project/
• ${workspaceFolderBasename}: - your-project
• ${file}: - /home/your-username/your-project/folder/file.ext
• ${relativeFile}: - folder/file.ext
• ${relativeFileDirname}: - folder/
• ${fileBasename}: - file.ext
• ${fileBasenameNoExtension}: - file
• ${fileDirname}: - /home/your-username/your-project/folder/
• ${fileExtname}: - .ext
• ${lineNumber}: - line number of the cursor
