Visual Studio Code Updater

This is a simple script to automate downloading, installing and restarting vscode.

Usage

    git clone https://github.com/moeenz/vscode-updater
    cd vscode-updater
    ./update.sh

For easier future usages simply put this in your .bashrc or .bash_profile file:

    alias update-vscode="bash /path/to/vscode-updater/update.sh"

Now you can run update-vscode easily from anywhere in terminal.

Update the script

    cd vscode-updater
    git pull

Note

This script will kill all vscode processes before installing latest version, so you’re responsible for saving your work before running this script.
