could not find deno in path, please install deno

I hoped for intellisence on deno commands in .ts files and .js files when installing this extension.

I’m on Ubuntu , gnome

Steps to reproduce

1. i created a docker container
2. started container
3. connected vscode to docker container
4. inside container switched user, added sudo rights
5. installed deno with curl according the docs.
6. updated .bashrc for new user with export path 7.reload vscode
7. deno works in terminal
8. installed deno vscode extension 10 added .vscode/settings.json to root of project { “deno.enable”: true }
9. added .ts or .js file to project and tried deno. --> no intellisence, only “Could not find ‘deno in your $PATH’…” at bottom right of screen

**Allready tried **

1. reinstalling extension
2. reinstalling deno under root user
3. changed settings.json to different locations

tnx for any advice or help

I had the same issue. I resolved it with:

• sudo ln -s /home/losintikfos/.deno/bin/deno /usr/bin

• Restart vscode.

Could I request a interim fix being a option to override to a manually entered path to a Deno Executable?

I would add that just in general as a backup as sometimes you may want to run a specific version of Deno as opposed to the global one and a workspace override would allow for that.
