🚑 Troubleshooting

Some tips in case of problems:

GitHub and API and limits​

Problem: I want to look up an external reference (xref) but I get an error about GitHub and API and limits.

Solution: get a GitHub Token.

I am sure an external reference contains the term I am referencing, but it does not show​

Maybe the repository is not indexed by GitHub. Do a manual search on the term:

  • Go to the repository
  • Enter your search term in the search field that shows: “Type / to search” and enter.

If you see this: *“This repository's code has not been indexed yet. Try again later.” * the repository has not been indexed (yet).

You cannot directly trigger the indexing, but making a change by committing something helps.

WSL2 users​

WSL2 users are recommended to use the bash option rather than PowerShell in the terminal of Visual Studio Code.

Use Node.js versions 18+​

Spec-Up-T uses fetch, which was added in version 18.

Install NVM if you haven't already. (Instructions not given here).

Then run Node.js version 18.
