PWA: anycode does not work since it can not connect to server

[isidorn]

Testing #141296

Open vscode.dev in PWA and open a typescript file. Notice anycode error
fyi @jrieken

Marketplace extensions are not yet functional.

@joaomoreno Why is that marketplace related? The anycode extension seems installed but the message sounds more like an LSP setup issue, e.g the LSP server is likely meant but I need to drill into LSP bits to understand this further

[joaomoreno]

An extension to be "installed" on vscode.dev means nothing. Even on a subsequent reload, the extension will be fetched from vscode-unpkg. So... if there's any dynamic loading that the extension does (ie request additional files at runtime), it could be that @isidorn was in a state in which he has the extension activated before going offline, went offline and then opened a TS file which made the extension load additional resources.

Does anycode do any dynamic loading?

Does anycode do any dynamic loading?

Yes, it starts its LSP server which is implemented in a different file (which is loaded from the extension "folder"). Tho, that is done immediately during activate

[joaomoreno]

It can actually be something else: the mechanisms by which the entry point and the server are loaded are different. We currently do cache certain things from vscode-unpkg... but I believe that only covers the first mechanism.

Anyway, anycode is not core. We know extensions that are not core are not supported right now in offline.
