Extending Rider - Explorer context menus
I want to port my Visual Studio extension to Rider but I can't find any guides or documentation regarding extending the explorer window. Does anyone here have any experience in implementing context menus on the explorer window?
In a nutshell, my extension generates code based on user selection initiated by right-clicking on one of the following items from the explorer window
- C# project file
- OpenAPI spec file (json/yaml)
- NSwag studio file (.nswag)
- Refitter settings file (.refitter)
- Kiota lock file

Hello Christian Helle ,
You might want to take a look at creating an action and then using an action group to place it in the appropriate menu.
Also, please consider taking a look at the following resources to get started with plugin development:
If you have any further questions, we have a slack channel #dotnet-pluginwriters where you can ask Rider/R#/IJ developers about the inner workings of the platform. Let me know if you want to be added there.
