Huh, there was another thread on this repo months ago about this but the user never actually provided any more info about what code . was supposed to do. TIL about the code thing, thanks, that's pretty cool actually!

I'm very curious how that actually works in the browser. It's certainly easy enough for them to embed a JS text editor somewhere in the html of the webpage, but that would be a little trickier for us.

I'll tag this up as a potential extension idea in the future, since this correlates strongly with a lot of the work we're doing there.

Hi,

thanks for the quick reply. Is it also possible as a workaround to use visual studio code within the azure cloud shell and launch the file in windows visual studio code like with the ubuntu wsl?

Unfortunately, this might be something we just can't do. It only works on the web because Code can be embedded in the webapp. Hmm.

Could you include an error message explaining that the feature isn't available? Right now if you run code in Az Cloud Shell it just fails silently. Not sure if that would be a WT issue or an AzCS issue. As another commenter suggested, reditrecting/referring to VSCode seems like a good work-around

I'm not sure that's something we could control. That'd have to be a feature of the Cloud Shell itself I'm afraid.

Are Code Tunnels an option here?

On an Ubuntu VM I can run the following:

wget https://code.visualstudio.com/sha/download?build=stable\&os=cli-alpine-x64 -O /tmp/code.tar.gz
sudo tar -zxvf /tmp/code.tar.gz -C /usr/local/bin && rm /tmp/code.tar.gz
code tunnel --name $(hostname) --accept-server-license-terms

And awesome things happen. (Code Tunnels are so good.)

I tried the following on Cloud Shell in Windows Terminal:

wget https://code.visualstudio.com/sha/download?build=stable\&os=cli-alpine-x64 -O /tmp/code.tar.gz
[[ ! -d ~/.local/bin ]] && mkdir -pm 755 ~/.local/bin
tar -zxvf /tmp/code.tar.gz -C ~/.local/bin && rm /tmp/code.tar.gz
mv ~/.local/bin/code ~/.local/bin/vscode
vscode tunnel --name $(hostname | cut -c1-20) --accept-server-license-terms --no-sleep

And it does the OAuth part, but then gets stuck in an API storm of some type, looping with this error: "This application has made an unusually high number of requests to access your account. Please reauthorize the application to continue."
