FR: please co-publish on Open VSX Registry #52

Open GitMensch opened 3 years ago

GitMensch commented 3 years ago

Please add this useful extension to the Open VSX Registry.

Details on the publishing can be found at https://github.com/eclipse/openvsx/wiki/Publishing-Extensions.

Friendly ping @kdcro101.

A bit of explanation: Open VSX Registry is the default extension provider endpoint for the free build of vscode VSCodium and Eclipse Theia. It would be nice to have this extension be directly published to a free vsix repository instead of only the Microsoft Marketplace with its restrictions.

You could also use a GitHub action that allows publishing to Open VSX and the MS market place, HaaLeo/publish-vscode-extension does this.

@kdcro101 Is there any hope for the new release getting published to open-vsx by you? That's the preferred way, if you say that won't happen I'll try to get it published by a CI service (kind of last resort).

@CommanderPho @kdcro101 Could you please help with instructions on how to build this extension from a checkout to https://github.com/open-vsx/publish-extensions/pull/576?

GitMensch commented 1 year ago

@CommanderPho I'm still failing to build this extension, can you please share the necessary steps, starting from a checkout?
