Users can always go to Tools > Developer > Profile Plugins to know why Sublime is slower, but I wouldn’t mind losing a bit of performance in order to gain a ton of functionality. Phase 2 might be focused on bringing LSP and support to Sublime Text to improve autocomplete, syntax highlighting, etc (I know this one will have performance implications, but most likely will still be faster than vscode). Lately, I’ve seen a few instances were ST could benefit from implementing vscode extensions since there is no support or little support for certain languages due to relying mostly on the community to implement (I’ve seen that there are some text editors already doing this or planning to do so onivim extracted vscode extension host for their text editor).Īs an ST lover, I want the best for this software and the developers behind the product, and feel that by adding vscode extension support, you will be able to keep a good amount of people that are moving to the “new kid on the block”.įrom what I’ve researched, adding color scheme vscode extension support could be done in Phase 1 on an Alpha release, as vscode is using the same TextMate rules that Sublime Text does (you would be able to recover almost ALL of the themes that plugin developers abandoned when they moved to vscode. It’s snappier than vscode and even when I’ve been running both side-by-side for the better part of 3 years, I normally try to come back to ST when possible due to the performance difference in some big files I work on.
#VSCODE ATEXT EXTENSION INSTALL#
For example, if your engines.vscode is 1.30, install "^1.30.0".First of all, I wanted to start by saying I love Sublime Text. Manually install that follows your engines.vscode in package.json.
As the old vscode module was also used for downloading VS Code type definition, you need to.The vscode module had been the default way of running extension integration tests and is being superseded by Here's how you can migrate from it: The test script ( src/test/runTest.ts) uses the API to simplify the process of downloading, unzipping, and launching VS Code with extension test parameters: import * as path from 'path' import main () Migrating from vscode VS Code provides two CLI parameters for running extension tests, -extensionDevelopmentPath and -extensionTestsPath.įor example: # - Launches VS Code Extension Host # - Loads the extension at # - Executes the test runner script at code \ -extensionDevelopmentPath= \ -extensionTestsPath= The test runner script ( src/test/suite/index.ts).The rest of this document explains these files in the context of the sample: Runs the Mocha tests specified by the extension test runner script.Īlternatively, you can find the configuration for this guide in the helloworld-test-sample.Downloads and unzips latest version of VS Code.In the generated extension, you can use npm run test or yarn test to run the integration tests that:
#VSCODE ATEXT EXTENSION GENERATOR#
If you are using the Yeoman Generator to scaffold an extension, integration tests are already created for you. If you are migrating from vscode, see migrating from vscode. This documentation focuses on VS Code integration tests. We refer to these tests as integration tests, because they go beyond unit tests that can run without a VS Code instance.
#VSCODE ATEXT EXTENSION FULL#
These tests will run inside a special instance of VS Code named the Extension Development Host, and have full access to the VS Code API.
Visual Studio Code supports running and debugging tests for your extension.
