Code-server: Can't Install from .vsix

[tecosaur]

• Code-server version: 1.792-vsc1.33.1
• OS Version: Debian 9.8

Description

I cannot see how to install an extension from a .vsix, the files seem greyed out.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install code-server binary
2. Download .vsix to /tmp
3. chmod 777 <filename>.vsix
4. Try to install .vsix

If you do the equivalent of this in your Dockerfile they install properly. This is what we've been doing and it seems to work pretty well.

RUN mkdir -p /home/coder/.code-server/extensions
RUN curl -JL https://github.com/mhutchie/vscode-git-graph/releases/download/v1.4.5/git-graph-1.4.5.vsix | bsdtar -xvf - extension
RUN mv extension /home/coder/.code-server/extensions/git-graph-1.4.5

Thanks! That worked for me. Still an issue that you can't install from a .vsix though.

I have the same issue, on the latest version.
