VS Code API

Proposed API

• env.clipboard
• Clipboard.readText

Running the Sample

This sample runs on VS Code Insider with commit 4626bc0e1b679d555dd6f034ece35ffc394b3bb7. If VS Code updated the Clipboard API in the future, you must re-download vscode.proposed.d.ts to src/vscode.proposed.d.ts and update your API usage accordingly.

• Run npm install in terminal to install dependencies
• Run the Run Extension target in the Debug View. This will:
  • Start a task npm: watch to compile the code
  • Run the extension in a new VS Code window
