publishing pre-release, target-specific .vsix to open-vsx.org

[jakubmisek]

Although the following issues seem to be closed/resolved:

• Add support for specific platforms #336
• Implement target platform #406
• Infer publish target from package manifest & allow multiple --packagePath args #461

We're having trouble publishing vsix files with various targets to open-vsx.org registry.

Setup

we're trying to publish our .vsix package (already created with
vsce package --pre-release --target win32-x64 -o phptools-vscode-$target-$version.vsix
)

• .vsix files are created correctly, working on VSC marketplace, XML vsixmanifest has TargetPlatform correctly set.
• I guess .vsix file name is not important

Issue

We're then publishing to open-vsx.org registry using command npx ovsx publish phptools-vscode-$target-$version.vsix -p $(PAT).

• Publishing the second target fails with:

  ❌  Extension devsense.phptools-vscode version 1.12.10053 is already published.
  

• The extension page https://open-vsx.org/extension/devsense/phptools-vscode does not specify:
  • the extension is pre-release
  • the extension is target specific, allowing to download a specific version

Is it something not yet implemented on open-vsx.org?

Thank you!

@amvanbaren It is implemented, but not deployed yet, correct?

[amvanbaren]

That's correct.

thank you @amvanbaren @akosyakov !

we'll wait then .. is there any ETA?

[Asanio06]

That's correct.

Hello, do you have a date for the next deployment? This is a feature that will bring a lot.
Thanks

[jakubmisek]

Thank you again.

Is there any way to check the features have been deployed on open-vsx.org?

[akosyakov]

Hello, unfortunately we cannot say. Last deployment did not went well and caused performance regressions. We have some optimisations in place, but we need to collect data to confirm them. Since deployment infrastructure is controlled by Eclipse Foundation we are waiting on them: https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipsefdn/helpdesk/-/issues/1483

@akosyakov thank you for the update and looking forward to the next deployment.
