[@types/vscode] Error: Cannot find module 'vscode'

[eiboon]

I really need some help as I cannot find or understand why this is not working. I am writing an LSP for a currently unsupported languange for vscode. I am at the part for semantic highlighting. From all the examples it needs npm i @types/vscode and to then import, I have te basic code below, which shows and compiles fine. When I go to run it, the LSP is failing stating it cannot find the vscode module. full code is available https://github.com/eiboon/4680.

import {
SemanticTokensLegend,
DocumentSemanticTokensProvider,
TextDocument,
ProviderResult,
SemanticTokens,
SemanticTokensBuilder,
Range,
Position,
languages
} from 'vscode';
`const tokenTypes = ['class', 'interface', 'enum', 'function', 'variable'];` `const tokenModifiers = ['declaration', 'documentation'];` `export const legend = new SemanticTokensLegend(tokenTypes, tokenModifiers);`
const semanticProvider: DocumentSemanticTokensProvider = {
provideDocumentSemanticTokens(
document: TextDocument
): ProviderResult<SemanticTokens> {
const tokensBuilder = new SemanticTokensBuilder(legend);
tokensBuilder.push(
new Range(new Position(1, 1), new Position(1, 5)), 'class', ['declaration']
);
return tokensBuilder.build();
}
};

const selector = { language: 'java', scheme: 'file' }; // register for all Java documents from the local file system
export function RegisterSemanticToken(): void {
languages.registerDocumentSemanticTokensProvider(selector, semanticProvider, legend);
}
