Add recent workspaces of various VSCode variants to Gnome search.
- Code OSS (Arch Linux)
- VSCodium
- Office Visual Studio Code packages
Under the hood this is a small systemd user service which implements the search provider DBus API and exposes recent workspaces from VSCode.
I provide a binary package at home:swsnr.
Install rust then run
$ make build
$ sudo make install
This install to /usr/local/
.
Note: You really do need to install as root
, system-wide.
A per-user installation to $HOME
does not work as of Gnome 40, because Gnome shell doesn't load search providers from $HOME
(see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/3060).
