This package always installs the latest insiders build so don't flag it as out-of-date, just rebuild and you'll get the latest version.

Hello, after adding extra command-line options through ~/.config/code-flags.conf, when running code-insiders my-file command, only vscode is started without automatically opening any files. Please consider updating visual-studio-code-insiders-bin.sh file to the following content.

#!/bin/bash

XDG_CONFIG_HOME=${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-~/.config}

# Allow users to override command-line options
if [[ -f $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/code-flags.conf ]]; then
   CODE_USER_FLAGS="$(sed 's/#.*//' $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/code-flags.conf | tr '\n' ' ')" # !!!Replace line breaks with spaces!!!
fi

# Launch
exec /opt/visual-studio-code-insiders/bin/code-insiders "$@" $CODE_USER_FLAGS # !!!Swap the positions of flags and other parameters!!!

Ah, nice catch! Will patch it in the next version bump.

@dcelasun You're welcome! Things that one finds out when building a setup without XWayland.

Btw, another thing that I personally don't care about but you might want to check the next time you plan on pushing an update: on the visual-studio-code-insiders.desktop file, the "New Empty Window" action has the same issue.

(sorry for not pointing it out in the same comment so you didn't need to push two different patches, I didn't notice at the time 🙈)

@elizabethdev done. Thanks for flagging this!

Hi, would you mind applying the same "Exec=" from the file visual-studio-code-insiders.desktop to the file visual-studio-code-insiders-url-handler.desktop (basically, use the wrapper that lets you apply flags from the ~/.config/code-flags.conf when using the URL handler).

I'd have done it myself but I'm not sure how this type of contributions are handled in the AUR, it doesn't look like pull requests are a thing in here.

@Alphabyte OK so the version is correctly identified. Can you try in a clean build directory, without any AUR helpers? Also, what's the output of uname -m?

Alphabyte commented on 2023-11-24 04:21 (UTC)

Hi, @dcelasun That command outputs 1700717804

dcelasun commented on 2023-11-23 19:43 (UTC)

@Alphabyte maybe it's a CDN issue. Assuming you're on x86_64, what's the output of IFS='/' read -ra ADDR <<< $(curl -ILs -o /dev/null -w %{url_effective} https://update.code.visualstudio.com/latest/linux-x64/insider); echo "${ADDR[7]}" | sed 's/code-insider-x64-//g' | sed 's/.tar.gz//g' | sed 's/-/./g'?
