Include LuaCATS library with a dependent extension

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:

https://github.com/LuaLS/vscode-lua/blob/7b58d50b4ea5feb1a478e6b0c18194ca1d1192a1/client/src/extension.ts#L33-L37

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: https://github.com/LuaLS/vscode-lua/discussions/125.

Thanks again for creating a great extension.

Comienza con client/src/extension.ts alrededor de las líneas 33-37 y la documentación de la VS Code extensions API; después, revisa la discusión vinculada de extension-development para conocer el contexto de configuración. Determina si una extensión dependiente puede incluir tipos de LuaCATS o si se necesita una public API; se considera terminado cuando el camino de integración compatible está establecido y documentado.
