🐛 BUG: losing intellisense on typescript imports inside .astro files until editor reload

[lee-arnold]

Describe the Bug

MacOS
VS Code extension: 2.14.2
Npm: 10.8.3
Node: 22.9.0
VS Code: 1.93.1

Intelisense in frontmatter imports doesn't seem to be working as expected when dealing with new typescript files. Sometimes I can get it to work for the first instance of a file, but then it fails to import any other files. Either way, reloading the editor after creating any new files fixes the issue.

Steps to Reproduce

1. npm create astro@latest (4.15.9 as of today)
2. open the project in vscode
3. create anything.ts with the contents export const anything = "anything";
4. create another.ts with the contents export const another = "another";
5. open index.astro and try to import the exported const.
6. while typing import anyt... I would expect the import to be listed at the top of the autocomplete list, however it does not appear there.
7. reload the vscode window and the imports now appear on the autocomplete list

Everything works as expected for me when following your instructions:

I'm not sure how to debug this further.

Hey, thanks for the response. Can I ask what OS and versions you're using? I haven't had a chance to test any others yet.

This is on macOS, 2.14.2 of the Astro extension, VS Code 1.93.1.

I am having this same problem, but on Ubuntu 22.04 with VS Code 1.92.1

I've noticed with further use that it also fails to recognise new exported functions in files that already existed, again resolved by restarting the language server.

My dupe issue above was about autocompletions on components like <MyComp.. but I guess it boils down to same issue. Running VSCode in Windows 11, under WSL2 (debian). Version is 1.96.0

Having the same issue on MacOS with Astro extension v2.15.4.

Any kind of file operation (new/renamed file or new/renamed exports) is not picked up unless I use "restart extension host" or restart VSCode. Until then, imports of these new files/exports are underlined as not found, and are not reported by intellisense either.
This also affects Astro components (.astro files), new components can't be imported unless the extension is restarted.

It's a bit like if a file watcher was stuck and never updating after the initial scan.

UPDATE: Seems to be resolved for my after the latest VSCode update (1.96.2).
UPDATE 2 (a few days later): The issue reappeared.

Just a note that I'm on VSCode 1.96.2 and it still doesn't work.
What I see is that any export (either on a TS file or Astro) gets picked up immediately on a TS file, but only gets picked up on an Astro file after reloading.

This is probably my biggest issue with Astro at the date, as I have to reload VSCode a dozen times a day due to this.

I experienced the same issue, but it hasn't occurred yet in Code Insiders (1.96). There could be other factors, such as conflicting extensions, but I haven't been able to reproduce the bug so far.

Without this issue I would not know a restart fixes it :)

Happens to me every time on Debian 12 + NeoVim 0.10.2 + astro-ls 2.15.4.
