Extension doesn't work in web extension host on Codespaces or github.dev
thegecko opened this issue · comments
Due to the file schemes used in GitHub Codespaces and github.dev, browser-based debugging using an extension running in the web extension host doesn't work. If I remember correctly, it did work ~6 Months ago, but have no evidence.
I've raised this as an issue on codespaces and VSCode here:
https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/44904
microsoft/vscode#171991
However, it isn't clear to me if this is an issue with VS Code, codespaces or the adapter support.
As Mock Debug is used as a template/example for debuggers, especially browser-based debuggers, I'd really appreciate support/guidance as to how we can get this working.
I'm very keen to get an update on this or at least to confirm if the issue is with the adapter (there may be a certain path format to use), VS Code or codespaces.
To that end, I've created instructions and a demo example extension to recreate the issue here:
