Hi,

I have a set of LuaCATS types for a proprietary SDK: https://github.com/notpeter/playdate-luacats/

I would like to create a simple VSCode extension which depends upon sumneko.lua and bundles those types. Is this possible?

If it is not currently possible, I believe vscode-lua could provide a public API for other extensions by adding additional functions to the object returned from the activate(context: vscode.ExtensionContext) function:

return {
async reportAPIDoc(params: unknown) {
await languageserver.reportAPIDoc(params);
}
};

See: VSCode extensions API Documentation.

This exported API could be something simple like library_add(path) so I can provide a path to a subdirectory in my extension bundle for my lua ---@meta files.

I would love to attempt this myself, but I'm still struggling setup a working extension development environment. See: #125.

Thanks again for creating a great extension.
