Is it possible to make a vscode extension made of mjs files?
because I tried to make an extension with mjs files only, in order to have full es6 features without TypeScript. But it does not run:
If I make the extension with $ vsce package it does not give any error but it makes an extension that does not work when installed: the contributions that I've put in the package.json are present but vscode shows an error popup that says
Activating extension 'my.ext' failed: Must use import to load ES Module: c:\vsext\extension.mjs.
and every command I try to run gives an error
command 'my.cmd' not found
If I run the extension on the debugger, and the breakpoint on uncaught exception option flagged, it breaks on /src/vs/workbench/api/node/extHostExtensionService.ts:88.
After further search, I noticed that this exception in generatend when the script tries to load the first mjs module.
there is something I can do in order to include my mjs library files?
I think that this behaviour could also impact the use of npm modules with mjs files.
