Feature request: Add friendly names for bookmarks #1

Closed francisbarton closed 1 year ago

Hi,

I wanted to say thanks for developing this extension. It was just what I wanted. A "nice to have" feature would be to be able to rename a bookmark with a "friendly" name e.g. "My bash profile", instead of the file name itself being shown. Ideally you would right-click on the bookmark and "rename" would come up as an option. The file name should still be shown in the bookmarks list by default though 😃.

Implementing this feature requires to upgrade the data storage format first to allow arbitrary metadata. Initial work is here: https://github.com/damolinx/vscode-bookmarks/commit/b9457bdca4c7318ccac1d8bd8c33af48f542b092

A few updates to the internal OM will be needed (currently WIP) and then the UI experience.

Thanks, that's great

v0.3.0 should allow you to "rename" a node which allows you to set a custom name. Most of the work went into moving internals around so the experience is basic (planning to update it over time).

Wonderful, thank you
