This doesn’t cause issue with many OpenBSD users, but those making the jump from Linux might miss access to such a popular editor. Lucky for us, there is a <em>hacky</em> workaround to solve this problem.</p> -<h2 id="vscode-in-the-browser">VSCode in the Browser</h2> -<p>I tried my best to build something like <code>code-server</code> locally and run that directly in my browser - but I failed miserably. Instead, I fell back on <a href="https://vscode.dev">vscode.dev</a> which is essentially a remote version of <code>code-server</code>.</p> -<p>Getting things to work seamlessly proved a little more challenging. I found the best performance was running everything through Chromium with special parameters enabled on launch.</p> -<blockquote> -<p><strong>Note:</strong> The following assumes you have already installed <code>chromium</code></p> -</blockquote> -<p>First we need to disable <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/unveil.2">unveil</a> for Chromium. This will allow us to access our system files through <a href="https://vscode.dev">vscode.dev</a> using the “Open folder…” or “Open file…” commands without issue:</p> -<pre><code>chrome --disable-unveil -</code></pre> -<p>Everything should work pretty solid right out the box now - except it doesn’t. Syntax highlighting does not work without enabling WASM/WebAssembly. Your experience might be different, but I had to include the following when launching Chromium from the terminal:</p> -<pre><code>ENABLE_WASM=1 chrome --enable-wasm -</code></pre> -<p>Success! We can avoid typing out these complex commands everytime we want to launch our editor by setting up an <code>alias</code> (in my case via <code>.zshrc</code>):</p> -<pre><code>alias vscode="ENABLE_WASM=1 chrome --enable-wasm --disable-unveil" -</code></pre> -<p>That’s it! Now I can just pop open VSCode on OpenBSD by simply running <code>vscode</code> in my terminal. Hopefully this can help others slowly transition over to OpenBSD - which you should do because it is amazing!</p> -<footer role="contentinfo"> - <h2>Menu Navigation</h2> - <ul id="menu"> - <li><a href="/">Home</a></li> - <li><a href="/projects">Projects</a></li> - <li><a href="/uses">Uses</a></li> - <li><a href="/wiki">Wiki</a></li> - <li><a href="/resume">Resume</a></li> - <li><a href="/colophon">Colophon</a></li> - <li><a href="/now">Now</a></li> - <li><a href="/donate">Donate</a></li> - <li><a href="/atom.xml">RSS</a></li> - <li><a href="#top">↑ Top of the page</a></li> - </ul> - <small> - Built with <a href="https://git.sr.ht/~bt/barf">barf</a>. <br> - Maintained with ♥ for the web. <br> - Proud supporter of <a href="https://usefathom.com/ref/DKHJVX">Fathom</a> & <a href="https://nextdns.io/?from=74d3p3h8">NextDNS</a>. <br> - The content for this site is <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/">CC-BY-SA</a>.<br> The <a href="https://git.sr.ht/~bt/bt.ht">code for this site</a> is <a href="https://git.sr.ht/~bt/bt.ht/tree/master/item/LICENSE">MIT</a>. - </small> -</footer>
