Samples to help jump-start your development of extensions for Visual Studio Team Services.
If you plan to package any of the sample extensions, get:
- Node.js
- Bower (
npm install -g bower) - Team Foundation command line interface(
npm install -g tfx-cli)
If you plan to compile any of the sample extensions, get:
- TypeScript 1.7 or higher (
npm install -g typescript) - Typings (
npm install -g typings) (manages TypeScript declare files)
Each web extension sample has a bower.json file, which references third-party libraries used by the sample, including the Visual Studio Services Web Extension SDK. This JavaScript file is required by all web extensions.
From the directory of the sample, run:
bower install
Each sample written in TypeScript has a typings.json file, which references the TypeScript declare files the sample needs to compile. This includes the declare files for Visual Studio Services and Team Foundation types.
From the directory of a sample written in TypeScript, run:
typings install
Each sample written in TypeScript has a tsconfig.json file, which defines the necessary TypeScript compiler settings for the sample.
From the same directory, run:
tsc
Most samples can be run without any modifications on Visual Studio Team Services. The steps are:
- Create a free Visual Studio Team Services account
- Create a Visual Studio Marketplace Publisher (all extensions are uploaded under a publisher)
- Verify the extension's manifest file (
vss-extension.json) either has thepublicattribute set tofalseor is not specified (this ensures your extension is not inadvertently made available to all Team Services users) - Package the extension with the ID of your publisher (run
tfx extension create --publisher MYPUBLISHERID) - Upload the produced .vsix file to the Marketplace
- Share your extension with your Team Services account (right-click on the published extension and select Share)
- Install the extension into the account (click on the published extension's title and then click Install)

This sample extension shows how to make a tab/section contribution to build summary page, reacting to build updates.
This also has a sample code that allows user to render custom data results uploaded from a particular task in build.
You could contribute to build results view in different ways:
- As a section to any of your own contributed tab for build results view
- As a section to the existing "summary" tab in build results view
- As a tab to the build results view
Contributing as a tab and a section to our own tab -
Contributing as a section to "summary" tab -
This sample is written in TypeScript. The compiled JS files are included in the /out directory, but changes will need to be re-compiled. Open readme.txt for instructions.
