This repo provides a visual studio code extension for Nautilus.
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/harry-cpp/code-nautilus/master/install.sh | bash
During the install process you will be prompted to choose whether you want to register the stable code binary, code-insiders, or both inside Nautilus. Your choices are stored in ~/.config/code-nautilus/targets.conf, so you can rerun the installer any time to update them.
If you want to install from a local copy (for testing changes or contributing):
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/harry-cpp/code-nautilus.git
cd code-nautilus
# Install using local files
bash install.sh --localThe --local (or -l) flag tells the installer to use your local code-nautilus.py file instead of downloading from GitHub. This is useful when:
- Testing local changes before contributing
- Developing new features
- Running the extension from a forked repository
rm -f ~/.local/share/nautilus-python/extensions/code-nautilus.py
