Quarto: Open Rendered File
A small Positron and Visual Studio Code extension for opening an existing
rendered Quarto output without rendering the document again.
Use
- Open a
.qmd document and run Quarto: Open Rendered File from the
Command Palette.
- Or right-click a
.qmd file in the Explorer, editor, or editor tab and
choose Open Rendered File.
The extension reads the document front matter and the nearest _quarto.yml or
_quarto.yaml. It supports:
- standalone documents;
- website output in
_site;
- book output in
_book;
- custom project
output-dir values;
- document and format-level
output-file values; and
- multiple output formats (you are prompted when several rendered files exist).
It only opens files that already exist. It never invokes quarto render.
Setting
quartoOpenRendered.openMode controls where the result opens:
external (default): use the operating system's default application;editor: ask Positron or VS Code to open the file in an editor.
