code-server: npm module doesn't install extension dependencies

Did a fresh install of the docker image and keep running into the following error: Running the contributed command: 'emmet.expandAbbreviation' failed.

My only setting is: { "emmet.triggerExpansionOnTab": true }

No other extensions installed/enabled. Straight from installation to opening a new html file and trying to expand ! or ul>li*5 results in that error.

Current version details:

  • code-server: v3.4.0
  • VS Code: v1.45.1

@nhooyr @code-asher thanks guys, I can confirm that these built in extensions now work with an npm/yarn install of 3.6.0

@tonywu3 emmet abbrev is working out of the box now on the latest

Ah yup, looks like VS Code strips the dependencies from the extension package.json so yarn installs nothing: https://github.com/cdr/code-server/pull/2041#issuecomment-685910322

Thanks y’all. You’re right @code-asher , this isn’t the image direct from cdr. I’m using this docker image: https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-code-server

I initially thought it was a code-server problem but it may be a problem with that linuxserver docker instead or how it’s being installed with Unraid… Just odd other folks haven’t ran into a similar problem on such a popular feature.

In any case, thanks for the help.
