Add support for wildcards in vscodeWorkspaceSwitcher.paths #8

Closed axerdan closed 6 years ago

axerdan commented 6 years ago

It could be a nice idea to add support for wildcards so with a couple of paths, several others can be included.

For example:

vscodeWorkspaceSwitcher.paths = [
    '~/projects/*/'
]

@Keeper82 , the main problem with this is that with Ctrl+k Shift-W you can now choose one of the folders in vscodeWorkspaceSwitcher.paths to save the workspace file.

This was implemented because I found it particularly annoying to have to navigate to the same place every time I want a new workspace saved and to reduce the steps for saving it.

So, I would have to find the time to fix this (in a nice way 😃 ) to allow wildcards or to discard this functionality (Ctrl+k Shift-W) altogether.

By the way, have you found this feature useful at all (I mean Ctrl+k Shift-W to save a new workspace)?

And thanks for the suggestion.

@Keeper82 please update to version v1.6.0.

The example you provided must now become (notice the double * in the directory glob):

vscodeWorkspaceSwitcher.paths = [
    '~/projects/**/'
]

Better late than never I guess.

Thank you for this idea!
