Support for vscode type #287

Open prabhu opened 5 months ago

prabhu commented 5 months ago

With an ever-growing list of malicious plugins, vscode rightly requires its type, similar to sublime and others. I'm proposing to use vsix as the type to represent the file extension used by these extensions since the same extension can be installed locally as well as via marketplaces such as Visual Studio and open-vsx.

Eg:

https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-python.python

pkg:vsix/ms-python.python@2023.25.10292213
pkg:vsix/ms-python.python@2023.25.10292213?download_url=https%3A%2F%2Fmarketplace.visualstudio.com%2F_apis%2Fpublic%2Fgallery%2Fpublishers%2Fms-python%2Fvsextensions%2Fpython%2F2023.25.10292213%2Fvspackage

vscode extensions installed from open-vsx

Eg: https://open-vsx.org/extension/muhammad-sammy/csharp

pkg:vsix/muhammad-sammy/csharp@2.15.30?download_url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fmuhammadsammy%2Ffree-vscode-csharp%2Freleases%2Fdownload%2F2.15.30%2Fcsharp-platform-neutral-2.15.30.vsix

@prabhu This looks fine, can you draft a type definition? (PS: I am not convinced by the vsix name as being the most obvious thing)

@pombredanne, what about vsx similar to open-vsx?
