unofficial flatpak version help #381

| Warning: You are running an unofficial Flatpak version of Visual Studio Code !!! |

Please open issues under: https://github.com/flathub/com.visualstudio.code/issues

This version is running inside a container and is therefore not able to access SDKs on your host system!

To execute commands on the host system, run inside the sandbox:

$ flatpak-spawn --host

To make the Integrated Terminal automatically use the host system's shell, you can add this to the settings:

{ "terminal.integrated.defaultProfile.linux": "bash", "terminal.integrated.profiles.linux": { "bash": { "path": "/usr/bin/flatpak-spawn", "args": ["--host", "--env=TERM=xterm-256color", "bash"] } } }

This flatpak provides a standard development environment (gcc, python, etc). To see what's available:

$ flatpak run --command=sh com.visualstudio.code $ ls /usr/bin (shared runtime) $ ls /app/bin (bundled with this flatpak)

To get support for additional languages, you have to install SDK extensions, e.g.

$ flatpak install flathub org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.dotnet $ flatpak install flathub org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.golang $ FLATPAK_ENABLE_SDK_EXT=dotnet,golang flatpak run com.visualstudio.code

You can use

$ flatpak search

to find others.

I got this too. I installed VSCode through the Pop!_OS store with the flathub option:

This is intentional as the Flatpak is not maintained by Microsoft. This is just a warning file that opens the first time you open it to explain some potential drawbacks inherent to Flatpaking VS Code and how to work around them.

I'm using Pop_os too But I'm new to linux. Can you tell me where should I put the '$ flatpak-spawn --host' line? I've tried in the terminal but I got an error :(
