Out of date VScode version #54

Open 0xmatia opened 6 years ago

0xmatia commented 6 years ago

Hey, I am trying to install VScode on my Raspberry pi 3 as shown in your site, but I am getting very old version of VScode (1.14.xxx) while 1.25 is available. I don't know if I am missing something, but I read somewhere in your site that the code is compiled every night, so the latest version should be available for download.

Thanks for you help, Elad

@JavaMatia: the builds have been failing for about a year now. The version you got is the last successful build.

I have tried to find some time to look into it, but not with much success. I don't really have access to the build pipeline, but was hoping to be at least able to to a clean build on a Pi. The VSCode team simply says arm is not supported, so no luck there....

Arm (32bit) works out of the box. Arm64 works since the electron2.0 integration but needs some patches. I track vscode on an local repo on my chromebook. It compiles without problems. It shouldn't be a big problem to restart the pipeline. All relevant patches are already included, only a few targets are missing for arm64. A guide to build it on arm64 can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Crostini/wiki/howto/install-vscode

I've recently found time to work on these builds again.

If you're able to test an ARM package on your Raspberry Pi let me know, as I'd be interested to get some feedback on the latest versions (a lot of changes).

I'd love to help. If you need my help, just ask!

headmelted commented 6 years ago

Can someone try installing this again - the packages have now been updated and should hopefully be building the very latest version of VSCode.

headmelted commented 6 years ago

The scripts have been updated too to include newer dependencies, and should be installing the latest vs code from the scripts.

If anyone can confirm that it would help me close the issue?

0xmatia commented 6 years ago

I can confirm this is working. Am I going to be able to update to newer versions in the future from the terminal? Also extensions not working anymore. When I search for something there is no search result at all.

Hi Elad,

You should definitely be able to update from the terminal (package is code-oss).

In terms of dependencies, these need to be patched back in to the OSS builds, I'm working on this right now (it'll be at most a couple more days to get this back in I expect)

Will update ticket when it's back up and running.

🙂

As the current build fails for more than two months now, is it simply lack of time or is there a show stopper?

pfeerick commented 4 years ago

This issue should be able to be closed now as there have been multiple releases subsequent, with 1.42.0 released just a few days ago.
