vcpkg edit

Synopsis

vcpkg edit <ports> [--all] [--buildtrees] [options]

Examples

Open multiple ports

vcpkg edit fmt zlib

vcpkg install fmt
vcpkg edit fmt --all

Description

Opens a port for editing in a text editor window (defaults to Visual Studio Code).

If multiple port names are provided, all ports are opened in the same window. This command does not work with ports from external registries. Only ports from the built-in registry can be opened.

The --buildtrees option opens the package's buildtrees folder instead of the port's contents. The --all option also opens the port's related packages and buildtrees folders in the same window.

By default, vcpkg will search for Visual Studio Code in well-known installation paths. Set the EDITOR environment variable to specify a text editor program to use.

On Windows, vcpkg searches for a Visual Studio Code or Visual Studio Code Insiders installation in:

  • the %ProgramFiles% and %ProgramFiles(x86)% folders
  • the %APPDATA%\Local\Programs folder
  • the Windows Registry

On Linux, vcpkg searches for the Visual Studio Code executable in:

  • /usr/bin/code
  • /usr/share/code/bin/code

On MacOS, vcpkg searches for a Visual Studio Code or Visual Studio Code Insiders installation in the Applications folder.

If Visual Studio Code is not found, vcpkg attempts to use the default text editor configured for your system.

Options

All vcpkg commands support a set of common options.

--all

Opens the port's related buildtrees and packages folders.

--buildtrees

Opens the port's buildtrees folder instead of the port's contents. The buildtrees folder is created during the installation process and contains the package's extracted source code and log files.

Use in combination with the vcpkg install --editable <port> command to get a clean copy of the package's source code suitable for debugging and creating patch files.
