Communication between Theia Extension and VSCode Extension

#1

When you make a VSCode Extension there is the possibility that they can “communicate” between them. So that you can call Methods from other Extensions. Like in this Example: https://code.visualstudio.com/api/references/vscode-api#extensions

Is there a way that a Theia Extension can call a Method from a VSCode Extension and/or the other way around?

@weisa-san I believe the question has been asked previously: https://github.com/eclipse-theia/theia/discussions/8126#discussioncomment-32983.

The only way that extensions (build-time) and plugins can communicate are from registered commands.

@vince-fugnitto Thanks for the quick answer and your suggestion worked. And for others who are looking for a solution, you can simply call a Theia command in VSCode extension with the following Line:

vscode.commands.executeCommand(“TheiaPlugin.command”);
