Password is stored as a PLAIN TEXT #5

Seems like the password is not encrypted and cannot be used that way

janjoerke commented 5 years ago

Yes, that is indeed bad.

The problem is, that VS Code does not offer an API for securely storing passwords. Implementing a custom credential store is sadly far above the time i can spend on the plugin at the moment.

For now i will add the possibility to leave the password field empty, so that when a user is set and a password is not, you than can enter your password manually.

I've implemented the change in 1.1.4.
