I need to install an extension for Visual Studio Code in a github workflow. I want to run this command in the workflow:
run: C:/Program Files/Microsoft VS Code/code.exe --install-extension ms-dynamics-smb.al
However, the github runner does not like this:
Run C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\code.exe --install-extension ms-dynamics-smb.al
C:\Program: D:\a\_temp\e14dee42-ae33-48ac-ad4e-44f4e4600de5.ps1:2
Line |
2 | C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\code.exe --install-extension ms-dy …
| ~~~~~~~~~~
| The term 'C:\Program' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable
| program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct
| and try again.
I tried the following variations, but everything fails:
run "C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\code.exe --install-extension ms-dynamics-smb.al"
--> Invalid workflow file
run "C:/Program Files/Microsoft VS Code/code.exe --install-extension ms-dynamics-smb.al"
--> The term 'C:/Program' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet...
run 'C:/Program Files/Microsoft VS Code/code.exe --install-extension ms-dynamics-smb.al'
--> The term 'C:/Program' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet...
run \"C:/Program Files/Microsoft VS Code/code.exe\" --install-extension ms-dynamics-smb.al
--> The term '\C:/Program Files/Microsoft VS Code/code.exe\' is not recognized...
How do I properly handle/escape a path with spaces in a github workflow file?
