Function: addExtension()

function addExtension(
   source, 
   scopeDir, 
   options?
): Promise<{
  commit?: string;
  name: string;
  replaced: boolean;
}>;

Defined in: core/externalExtensions.ts:394

Installs an extension into a scope from a folder or a git repository (url#ref, sha to pin a commit, and subdir for one inside it): copies its files (never runs a script), checks its manifest, and locks it, enabled, with the marketplace it came from when it did (origin, for a temporary folder, is what the lock says it came from). An extension with the same name in that scope is replaced.

Parameters

source	string
scopeDir	string
options	{ marketplace?: string; origin?: string; sha?: string; subdir?: string; }
options.marketplace?	string
options.origin?	string
options.sha?	string

Returns

Promise<{ commit?: string; name: string; replaced: boolean; }>
