VS Code

[joenstrup]

When using PnP.Powershell in VS Code with PowerShell extention I see lots of errors making it more or less unusable.

There are no errors in normal Windows PowerShell or ISE PowerShell.

Anyone else experiencing this, and is there any workaround?

Hi,

you need to be a bit more specific if you want an answer :)

What errors exactly? Can you provide a screenshot?

Please give os something to work with...

kind regards

Sorry, here you go :)

These are just an example of errors, that only show in VS code PS and not in Windows PS.

Add-PnPTenantTheme : Method not found: 'Int32 System.Text.Encodings.Web.TextEncoder.FindFirstCharacterToEncodeUtf8(System.ReadOnlySpan`1)'

Invoke-PnPSiteTemplate : Method not found: 'System.Runtime.CompilerServices.ConfiguredValueTaskAwaitable`1 Enumerator.MoveNextAsync()'

Good point, but unfortunately already checked earlier. Any other ideas? :)

did you run the commands from inside the VS Code shell as well?

[joenstrup]

That works, as this is just same shell as Windows PS.

The issue is when using the PowerShell extention available in VS Code (https://github.com/PowerShell/vscode-powershell).

It is probably an issue with the extention, but maybe there is a workaround....guess not?

[AndersRask]

It looks like VSCode cannot find your modules.
Can you see the module from within VSCode shell?

Get-Module -ListAvailable *pnp*

Does other modules work from within VSCode?

[joenstrup]

I do not have any issues in other modules (AzureADPreview, Microsoft Teams and several others) - only using pnp.powershell I have issues. Some parts of Pnp.PowerShell works fine and some does not. Really strange.

There is definately something going on with the vscode powershell integrated console terminal with versions 1.6.0 and 1.7.0. There is some conversation going on here PowerShell/vscode-powershell#3510. It appears that there are no issues when running standard powershell, powershell ISE or the powershell terminal in vscode.
