vscode extension development: svelte content not loading in webview after building the vscode extens

Time:11-09

I am building a vscode extension by using svelte for webview. I am following https://youtu.be/a5DX5pQ9p5M. But the deployment of extension is not mentioned in the tutorial .

So i am following https://code.visualstudio.com/api/working-with-extensions/publishing-extension.

So after packaging the extension with vsce package and installing the extension the extension doesn't load svelte content but when running in developer mode everything works fine.

I tried creating the package extension multiple Times but still didn't work.

CodePudding user response:

Check if all necessarily files are included via:

vsce ls

(You can also open packaged extensions, they are just ZIP-archives with a different extension.)

If they are not (e.g. src is excluded by default), you probably can create a .vscodeignore file and manually specify what to exclude.

Running extension problems can be inspected via Help > Toggle Developer Tools, usually you will find some errors in the console.

I do not know if debugging forces the extension to load, but if so, make sure you have set the correct activationEvents.
