How can I open a .md file in VS Code preview mode from terminal?
VS Code has a good preview mode for .md files. To open a file with this mode, I have to right-click the file in VS Code document tree, and click "Open Preview". One can also use shortcut Ctrl+Shift+V.
I would like to open a .md file in VS Code preview mode directly from Ubuntu's terminal.
I guess the command I'm looking for will be something like
code README.md --preview ... but running code --help didn't help me to find my answer.
Is there any way I can do that?
Solution
Open VSCode settings.json file with;
- Ctrl + Shift + P / Cmd + Shift + P
- Preferences: Open User Settings
- Application -> Settings Sync
Add these lines to json file before the last }
, // don't forget the comma
"workbench.editorAssociations": {
"*.md": "vscode.markdown.preview.editor",
}
Then whenever you want, you can use code README.md command.
