VSCode Extension - API

I am trying to include similar icons with buttons like next to Open Editor on my vscode extension (1st image). Not sure where to add them.

I have worked this far:

Can someone tell which API to deploy next?

Solution

  • it's in your package.json -> contributes, checkout this doc, and this example

    package.json, line#149-160

        "menus": {
        "commandPalette": [
            {
                "command": "ftpExplorer.revealResource"
            }
        ],
        "view/title": [
            {
                "command": "nodeDependencies.refreshEntry",
                "when": "view == nodeDependencies",
                "group": "navigation"
            },

    package.json, line#67-74

        "commands": [
        {
            "command": "nodeDependencies.refreshEntry",
            "title": "Refresh",
            "icon": {
                "light": "resources/light/refresh.svg",
                "dark": "resources/dark/refresh.svg"
            }

    you need a view/title entry which points to a command entry, the icon is in the command, it can be custom image or vscode's codicon, you might want to read this doc
