pass extension name while building vscode extension (vsix)-CodePudding

I am currently building vscode extension for multiple platform (extension include jre) who do I pass extension name while building vscode extension.

I found this

extension name got overridden with package.json name.

build.gradle

task buildLinuxExtension(type: NpxTask) {
    description "Build the vsix extension package"
    dependsOn compileLinuxExtension
    command = 'cd'
    args = ['LinuxExtension']
    command = 'vsce'
    args = ['package']
}
``

CodePudding user response：

Before calling vsce to generate the extension package, you can call a command like sed to replace "name": "test", with "name": "LinuxExtension", in package.json, if that's what you wanted.

With search engines you can find decades of knowledge around sed or similar command line tools.

CodePudding user response：

We can parse package.json in build.gradle and set name.

import groovy.json.JsonSlurper
import groovy.json.JsonOutput

def void setExtensionName(String extensionName){
 def packageSlurper = new JsonSlurper()
 def packageJson = packageSlurper.parse file('package.json')
 packageJson.name = extensionName
 def json_str = JsonOutput.toJson(packageJson)
 def json_beauty = JsonOutput.prettyPrint(json_str)
 File file = new File("package.json")
 file.write(json_beauty)
}
