Setting up a build environment?

Greetings all!

I was wondering how to set up a build environment for Oxide in Rust. I've looked at the API, but I'm not certain.

My guess is the following, but correct me if I'm wrong:

1.) Download Oxide.
2.) Configure an Oxide localhost server.
3.) Create a new project in Visual Studio
4.) Create a file, say, willThisWork.cs
5.) Copy and paste this basic template (from the API):

namespace Oxide.Plugins
{
[Info("EpicStuff", "Unknown", 0.1)]
[Description("Makes epic stuff happen")]

class EpicStuff : RustPlugin
{
// The rest of the code and magic
}
}

6. Within the class of epicStuff, try an output hook function. Something like a hello world. Maybe something like this within the class:
void Init()
{
Puts("Init works!");
}

7. Load willThisWork.cs into some plugin folder.

8. Upon loading the Oxide server, would this plugin output to console?

But would that output to the console, or would it output globally?

Would these steps work? Or is there a better approach?

Thanks!

 

That's good to know.

But are these basically the general steps? Or am I missing a step?

Wulf does there happen to be a step by step guide yet? I think you mentioned there's one in the works, If not Ill try and write one when I re-setup my dev environment soon.
