Live-share: [VS Code] Parser of shared server URL has trouble with parentheses

[dalloriam]

Product and Version [VS/VSCode]: VSCode
OS Version [macOS/Windows]: Windows
Live Share Extension Version: 0.3.1225
Target Platform or Language [e.g. Node.js]: N/A

Steps to Reproduce / Scenario:

1. Start a live sharing session.
2. Start a python HTTP server.

$ python3 -m  http.server
Serving HTTP on 0.0.0.0 port 8000 (http://0.0.0.0:8000/) ...
127.0.0.1 - - [23/Feb/2019 17:05:48] code 404, message File not found
127.0.0.1 - - [23/Feb/2019 17:05:48] "GET /) HTTP/1.1" 404 -

On the client, VSCode will open the path /)in the browser, most likely because it failed to parse the URL surrounded by parentheses in the terminal output.

@dalloriam Thanks for reporting this! Yeah you're right, our URL parsing is incorrectly including the trailing parentheses in the path it shares. Just to confirm: if the guest removes the trailing parentheses, does the shared server load correctly?

[dalloriam]

@lostintangent Yep! Everything works great for the guest once the path is corrected.

@dalloriam OK great, thanks for confirming that! We’ll try to get this resolved soon. We had done testing with Django and Flask, but we obviously missed this specific scenario 😁
