Requirements

You need to install the same requirements which are mention on https://developers.raycast.com.

URI Handler Support

🚧 Experimental

You can run a command inside VSCode from outside of VSCode via custom URI handler. The URI handler can run commands with the following schema vscode://tonka3000.raycast/runcommand?cmd=<cmdid>. cmdid needs to be replaced by the internal command id of the specific VSCode command which you wanna trigger.

E.g. you can run the command Terminal: Create New Terminal when you use it's internal ID workbench.action.terminal.new. The full command would look like vscode://tonka3000.raycast/runcommand?cmd=workbench.action.terminal.new.

To run this example from the MacOS terminal you need to enter the following line into your terminal

open "vscode://tonka3000.raycast/runcommand?cmd=workbench.action.terminal.new"

⚠️ Arguments for commands are right now not supported.

Limitations

Some commands of VSCode can not be run in a specific context, which is a limitation of VSCode itself. This can lead to errors.

Troubleshooting

If you have problems with the extension just file a issue on GitHub. It's mostly a good idea to attach the log output of this extension to the issue. You can active the logger by adding "raycast.loglevel": "debug" to your settings.json file. Just copy the content of the Raycast output pane into your GitHub issue.
