Namespace extensions

Namespace for dealing with installed extensions. Extensions are represented by an Extension-interface which enables reflection on them.

Extension writers can provide APIs to other extensions by returning their API public surface from the activate-call.

export function activate(context: vscode.ExtensionContext) {
    let api = {
        sum(a, b) {
            return a + b;
        },
        mul(a, b) {
            return a * b;
        }
    };
    // 'export' public api-surface
    return api;
}

When depending on the API of another extension add an extensionDependencies-entry to package.json, and use the getExtension-function and the exports-property, like below:

let mathExt = extensions.getExtension('genius.math');
let importedApi = mathExt.exports;

console.log(importedApi.mul(42, 1));
