Save settings into a custom file or path beside `.vscode/settings.json`

See original GitHub issue

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. My issue is I do commit my .vscode/settings.json but I don’t want to commit my peacock color customisation into it because each dev their own preference.

Describe the solution you’d like I think it would be nice if we have something like .vscode/peacock.json file config which I can add into my .gitignore settings.

Describe alternatives you’ve considered

Agree with what @rohmanhm says, I would only like to add that the same logic goes for any workbench.colorCustomizations that peacock currently saves in the workspace settings. Because if it uses a separate file for the peacock settings, then the same should go for the workbench.colorCustomizations section as it would affect other users in the same way, even if they don’t have the extension. Not even sure if that’s possible inside the scope of the extension though, but one without the other would not make much sense, IMO.

Hello … it is cool to be able to customize the IDE color by project, which gives us a visual feedback on which project we are currently working on … but when we are working as a team, everyone has their own preferences … It would be good to have a way of not interfering with the preferences of other developers, without losing the advantage of sharing important lint and formatting preferences in the project. Whether it’s a file for peackock settings, as suggested by @rohmanhm, or maybe a way to selectively use workspace settings depending on who we are … I’m not sure if that’s a good idea … I think that the extension settings file is the best. Anyway … thanks for the work on that extension and thanks for sharing it.
