VS Code

This plugin provides useful aliases to simplify the interaction between the command line and VS Code or VSCodium editor.

To start using it, add the vscode plugin to your plugins array in ~/.zshrc:

plugins=(... vscode)

Requirements

This plugin requires to have a flavour of VS Code installed and it's executable available in PATH.

You can install either:

  • VS Code (code)
  • VS Code Insiders (code-insiders)
  • VSCodium (codium)

MacOS

While Linux installations will add the executable to PATH, MacOS users might still have to do this manually:

For VS Code and VS Code Insiders, open the Command Palette via (F1 or ⇧⌘P) and type shell command to find the Shell Command:

Shell Command: Install 'code' command in PATH

For VSCodium, open the Command Palette via (F1 or ⇧⌘P) and type shell command to find the Shell Command:

Shell Command: Install 'codium' command in PATH

Using multiple flavours

If for any reason, you ever require to use multiple flavours of VS Code i.e. VS Code (stable) and VS Code Insiders, you can manually specify the flavour's executable. Add the following line to the .zshrc file (between the ZSH_THEME and the plugins=() lines). This will make the plugin use your manually defined executable.

ZSH_THEME=...

# Choose between one [code, code-insiders or codium]
# The following line will make the plugin to open VS Code Insiders
# Invalid entries will be ignored, no aliases will be added
VSCODE=code-insiders
