How to make paths clickable in Visual Studio Code Terminal

Question

I have VSCode vs. 1.3. and I would like to be able to click in any valid path showed inside the integrated Terminal and get the file opened.

Do you know how can I achieve it?

Thanks!

Answer 1

I've found that if you have full paths it works, but not for relative paths. would love to have a workspace setting for it, it should only be to apply the pwd(bash) and (pwd).Path(powershell) in front of it.

No link for relative links:

File ".\unity_events.py", line 100, in get_latest_event

If full path is applied it is fine (ctrl+click):

File "d:\sensio-data\sensiotools\sensiotools\mssql.py", line 410, in psql

Have just implemented this in a command line utility and I can confirm that relative paths are now working (v1.74) but can't say when the change might have occurred. – Proptosis

VSCode 1.65 (Feb. 2022) will introduce a new Terminal: Open command which provides an alternative to Ctrl+click, and works for opening files.

See issue 140923 and issue 141342

Prior to this work, a mouse click was required to activate terminal links.

We now provide 3 commands in order to make them actionable via the keyboard:

Most Recent refers to the link closest to the cursor position.
