Enable (or fix) sync across devices #291

Closed carlocardella closed 2 years ago

carlocardella commented 2 years ago

Describe the bug Repositories and followed users do not sync across my devices, both Stable and Insiders VSCode releases.

https://github.com/lostintangent/gistpad/blob/6bc4667eb00c09c81a852231b2f7144b86def053/src/extension.ts#L29-L30

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. On device1 open a repo or add a new followed user
  2. On device2, make sure sync is on with the same account used on device1.
  3. Wait for the devices to sync (or force a sync manually)

Expected behavior When I open a repo or add a followed user on a device, the same repo or followed user should appear on other sync'ed devices automatically.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Thanks for filing this! This actually used to work, so I'm curious what may have regressed 🤔 Looking at the VS Code API docs, the setKeysForSync method still appears to be valid?

carlocardella commented 2 years ago

Yes, that is the right method (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/settings-sync#_sync-user-global-state-between-machines), I am lookig into it

Just to confirm: did you enable syncing "UI State" in the Settings Sync config? I believe that option controls whether extension global state is synced?

carlocardella commented 2 years ago

Yes, I have enabled all options:
