I got this message:

Activating extension 'CoenraadS.bracket-pair-colorizer-2' failed: Cannot find module '/usr/lib/code-server/lib/vscode/node_modules.asar/vscode-textmate'.

I realized that there was no /usr/lib/code-server/lib/vscode/node_modules.asar folder. Instead there was /usr/lib/code-server/lib/vscode/node_modules and on this folder I found ‘vscode-textmate’.

I created a symbolic link:

$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/code-server/lib/vscode/node_modules /usr/lib/code-server/lib/vscode/node_modules.asar

It’s working now! =)

I added a fix for extensions trying to load from node_modules.asar. As soon as CI completes I’ll put up another pre-release.

It couldn’t install the extension because it didn’t exist so we’ll need to add a 404 check in code-server to make that more clear because it was trying to parse the 404 page as a vsix. It seems the marketplace failed to build the extension because it has a dependency on event-stream@3.3.6 which doesn’t exist (I think it was pulled due to some security vulnerability).

Maybe the move is to run npm audit fix if a package fails to build and try again. In the meantime I fixed it manually.
