VSCode and URL-schemes

A lesser known feature in macOS and iOS there is URL-schemes available for some of the more popular apps.

Create a link from a web page and open the file with VSCode via URL-schemes.

<a href="vscode://file/{full path to file}:line:column">Open the file</a>

https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/command-line#_opening-vs-code-with-urls

This is handy since you can configure Whoops to open the file containing the error with a single click. As Marcel Pociot tweeted you can configure Laravel to pass this thru.

Other apps that supports URL-schemes is

• Bear
• Things – imagine creating todo-items from the Whoops error page ;-)
• Tower
