@jongeduard: As far as I know, the built-in extension manager of vscode doesn't support this feature. Vscode will read data in product.json on startup and the values it used won't be changed until next startup.
Maybe you can find out if there are any third-party extension managers that support this feature, or you can directly download the vsix file of this extension and install it manually.

About the maintainance
I'm a vim user, and I rarely use vscode. I created this package simply for fun. And for some reasons, I'm not using Arch Linux as my daily driver anymore.
I'll continue to maintain this package for a while until my old Arch Linux machine retires. If you want to become a maintainer of this package, feel free to contact me (i@sainnhe.dev).
Updating the package is very simple, you just need to run
update.py
in the root of this repository. The script will automatically updatepatch.json
which contains the patch data.sainnhe commented on 2021-04-05 08:00 (UTC) (edited on 2021-04-09 10:08 (UTC) by sainnhe)
This package basically installs a hook that will patch
/usr/lib/code/product.json
to use vscode marketplace every timecommunity/code
is updated.There are some extensions in vscode marketplace that don't work with Code OSS (e.g. pylance and remote-ssh), you can install
code-features
(thanks to @Lightsword) orcode-features-insiders
(thanks to @coxackie_) to unblock them.Btw, you may also be interested in code-icons by @coxackie which will replace the icon of Code OSS with VSCode's.
