Opening files fails on *nix

See original GitHub issue

The extension works great on Windows, but does not operate on Linux for me - the path is arriving to DataPreview constructor as file:///home/me/mysubdir/myfile.csv, and there it gets truncated into home/me/mysubdir/myfile.csv, relative path, file not found. The fix would be to remove one slash less for non-Windows platforms, 'file://', so that the result path becomes absolute (will start with '/').

Thanks!

@aviaconstructor this should be fixed now. I just pushed new v1.27.1 patch release with that update. Basically, I’ll rely on vscode Uri.fsPath for loading local data files. see changes tagged above.

Let me know if it works for you now & many thanks for bringing this to my attention and code troubleshooting assist 😃

Also, please review open features/enhancements I have planned for this ext. and let me know what you’d like to see in the next major release update. Just thumb up the once you like 😃

@aviaconstructor thanks for the follow up on this! I’ll reopen it and try to patch it for Ubuntu.

Appreciate the screen pic and faulty code details to help me troubleshoot this.
