Deno 2.2 enhances Node.js compatibility, improves dependency management, adds OpenTelemetry support, and expands linting and task automation for developers.
The Visual Studio Code Extension Manager
14.x.x
Or simply Docker.
In order to save credentials safely, this project uses keytar which uses libsecret
, which you may need to install before publishing extensions. Setting the VSCE_STORE=file
environment variable will revert back to the file credential store. Using the VSCE_PAT
environment variable will also avoid using keytar.
Depending on your distribution, you will need to run the following command:
sudo apt-get install libsecret-1-dev
apk add libsecret
sudo yum install libsecret-devel
sudo pacman -S libsecret
Install vsce globally:
npm install --global vsce
Verify the installation:
vsce --version
vsce
is meant to be mainly used as a command line tool. It can also be used a library since it exposes a small API. When using vsce as a library be sure to sanitize any user input used in API calls, as a security measurement.
You can also build a container for running vsce:
$ DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1 docker build --tag vsce "https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-vsce.git#main"
Validate the container:
docker run --rm -it vsce --version
Publish your local extension:
docker run --rm -it -v "$(pwd)":/workspace vsce publish
You can configure the behavior of vsce
by using CLI flags (run vsce --help
to list them all). Example:
vsce publish --baseImagesUrl https://my.custom/base/images/url
Or you can also set them in the package.json
, so that you avoid having to retype the common options again. Example:
// package.json
{
"vsce": {
"baseImagesUrl": "https://my.custom/base/images/url"
"dependencies": true,
"yarn": false
}
}
First clone this repository, then:
$ npm install
$ npm run watch:build # or `watch:test` to also build tests
Once the watcher is up and running, you can run out of sources with:
node vsce
