Export the list of extensions you've installed in VSCode
ยท One min read
A small tip: by running code --list-extensions
in a console (Linux or DOS), you'll get the list of all extensions you've installed in VSCode.
Now, just copy/paste that list and you can send it to a friend Hey, here are the extensions I use. Maybe one or the other will be useful to you..
The output of code --list-extensions
will be something like this:
aaron-bond.better-comments
alefragnani.Bookmarks
bajdzis.vscode-twig-pack
bmewburn.vscode-intelephense-client
bobmagicii.autofoldyeah
calebporzio.better-phpunit
...
If you've a PowerShell user, you can also run code --list-extensions | % { "code --install-extension $_" }
and now the output will look like this:
code --install-extension aaron-bond.better-comments
code --install-extension alefragnani.Bookmarks
code --install-extension bajdzis.vscode-twig-pack
code --install-extension bmewburn.vscode-intelephense-client
code --install-extension bobmagicii.autofoldyeah
code --install-extension calebporzio.better-phpunit
...
If you're a Linux user, the same thing can be obtained with code --list-extensions | xargs -L 1 echo code --install-extension
And that's nice: now by running these commands you can directly install these extensions.
