Installation

1. Clone or download the repository.
2. Install rofi.
3. Run make install. (maybe you need sudo permissons to do this)

Usage

Example

If the script is in a binary directory: rofi-vscode [directory]

Replace [directory] with the directory of your vscode workspaces. (e.g. /home/user/git)

Functions

The script will open a rofi dmenu where it will list all the directories in the given workspaces directory. If you select a directory (or project) it will open it in vscode.

• Create new workspace: It asks you for new directory name and creates a new directory in the workspaces folder. Finally it will open it in VSCode.
• Add existing project from git : It allows you to clone a git repository from the scirpt either from a SSH or a HTTPS source.

Info

If you want to clone a git repository via ssh and your ssh key is protected with a passphrase, you should either remove the passphrase for better comfort or you have to run ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa before you clone the repo.
