Is it possible to use the vscode: hyperlink to open a file or directory in Code?

In Visual Studio Code, you're able to use the vscode: hyperlink to complete some actions (i.e. vscode:extension/ericadamski.carbon-now-sh). Is there a way to use that to open a directory?

For example, I have my ~/Projects/Handbook directory, and I want to link to open/edit that on a Boostnote page using a hyperlink.

Solution

  • Yes, it is possible.

    Open a project (or a directory)

    vscode://file/{full path to project}/

vscode://file/c:/myProject/

    Open a file

    vscode://file/{full path to file}

vscode://file/c:/myProject/package.json

    Open a file to line and column

    vscode://file/{full path to file}:line:column

vscode://file/c:/myProject/package.json:5:10
