Open issue in Linear

VS Code extension that opens the Linear issue you're currently working on based on the Git branch name you're currently on.

Once installed, just go to the command menu with:

Cmd + Shift + P

And type "Open issue". You'll see a command called "Linear: Open issue" appear.

This extension uses our VS Code Linear API authentication provider that is exposed by the linear-connect extension. Feel free to use that in your own extensions!

Developing & Contributing

After cloning the repo, use yarn to install all the package dependencies.

In VS Code you change the code and run the extension in a separate app window to test with F5 (Run > Start Debugging).

Publishing

To publish a new version of the extension, first install the vsce package, that is used to build VS Code extension packages.

npm i -g vsce

Then make sure to:

1. Update the version in package.json according to semver
2. Add appropriate changes to CHANGELOG.md

Build the new extension package.

vsce package

This produces a new file linear-open-issue-1.0.1.vsix, if your version was set to 1.0.1 in package.json.

You can use this file to release a new version of the extension on the VS Code marketplace.
