[BUG] Latest CircuitPython Extension (0.2.0) does not work with latest VSCode Version (1.85.1) #136

Open grosdode opened 10 months ago

grosdode commented 10 months ago

Describe the bug If I try to execute a CircuitPython command in VSCode I get "Command 'xyz' not found" for all commands (open serial Monitor, update libraries, ...)

To Reproduce Install the latest circuit CircuitPython Extension (0.2.0) and the latest VSCode (or VSCodium) Version (1.85.1) and try any command CircuitPython Extension (0.1.2) works fine with VSCode (or VSCodium) Version (1.85.1) CircuitPython Extension (0.2.0) works fine with VSCode (or VSCodium) Version (1.84.2)

Screenshots Screenshot 2024-01-05 160445

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Additional context Tested on 3 different Windows 10 pro computers

I think this is the same as issue #134.

If you open the VSCode dev tools you should see an error saying the CircuitPython extension cannot find %USERPROFILE%\.vscode\extensions\joedevivo.vscode-circuitpython-0.2.0-win32-x64\boards\metadata.json which then causes the extension not to load and so all of the CircuitPython commands cause the error in the screenshot.

If you inspect the contents of the .vsix file (it's just a zip file), you will see that this file is missing from extension\boards\ as compared with the previous version .vsix file.

You can get past this and get the extension to load by placing the metadata.json file from the previous version in the folder %USERPROFILE%\.vscode\extensions\joedevivo.vscode-circuitpython-0.2.0-win32-x64\boards\

However, when I did this there were further bugs related to loading libraries as outlined in issue #134

Yes I get the same error: Activating extension 'joedevivo.vscode-circuitpython' failed: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'c:\Users\xxx.vscode\extensions\joedevivo.vscode-circuitpython-0.2.0-win32-x64\boards\metadata.json'. Screenshot 2024-01-06 210755 But I'm wondering why it worked with an older VSCode version

But I'm wondering why it worked with an older VSCode version

How sure are you that it did?

VS Code 1.85.1 came out before CircuitPython Extension (0.2.0), so to have CircuitPython Extension 0.2.0 installed in VSCode 1.84.2 would mean that they were updated out of order.

As far as I can tell CircuitPython Extension (0.2.0) is just broken but if you figure out how it could have worked in VSCode 1.84.2, it would be interesting to know.

grosdode commented 10 months ago

Pretty sure. I had VSCode and VSCodium installed. VSCode was up to date but VSCodium still on 1.84.2 (do not use it verry often) and I had to download and install the update by hand. Before the update everything works fine with 0.2.0 of CircuitPython and VSCodium and I install extension by extension from my VSCode to VSCodium, to check if any of the extensions causes this problem. After I installed all possible extensions it worked still fine. Than I saw that VSCodium was not up to date. So I did the update by hand and CircuitPython 0.2.0 no longer works.

This fixed part of my issue but I also didn't have python installed, once it was installed and I restarted this issue went away.

I had this issue and had to back install to 0.1.20: image

Once I did that everything worked as expected.

toddmo commented 10 months ago

uninstalled it. I never could get this to work regardless of version. latest VS Code on Linux Mint.

steka commented 10 months ago

I had the same issue, and had to revert to v0.1.20 to get it to work again (Microsoft Windows 10 Home).

wmerkens commented 10 months ago

Currently, on three Linux systems, I have VSC 1.85.2 and 0.2.0 are working.

I had to install 0.1.2, then go into .vscode/extensions and manually delete 0.2 for it to work

Just encountered this issue on Windows 11. Downgrading to v0.1.20 worked.

Has this been fixed yet for version 0.2.0?

wmerkens commented 6 months ago

I am afraid nope, not fixed. Also, I have found the script used to rebuild the stubs/boards needs to be reworked since it does not build stubs correctly anymore. I am looking at the code of the extension, but I have never done typescript, so at the moment, I am learning how the extensionis put together and built.

So you're saying it's just better to stick with the old versions?
