Vscode asking about to install terraform

Vscode is always asking about to install terraform, but terraform and terraform-ls already installed. See screen above

If you have Terraform CLI installed, I would assume this just means it's not available in the $PATH passed down to VS Code.
Note that on macOS at least the environment of an app (launched from Finder/Dock/Spotlight or elsewhere outside of your terminal) may differ from the environment available to your terminal.

Can you try following some of the debugging steps I mentioned in this comment? #552 (comment)

[oleksii-b-username]

Yes, I've Terraform CLI installed via brew manager

which terraform
/usr/local/bin/terraform

So as you can see it's on well known OS PATH

launchctl getenv PATH - ended with 0 code but empty result

echo $PATH
/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/Users/aleksey/bin:/usr/local/opt/mysql-client/bin/

BTW all syntax highlighting is working and auto-completion too, only notification that I need install CLI always appears

@zipper-krew Can you try relaunching VS Code from the terminal so that it inherits the environment of the active shell?

e.g.

code ./directory

@radeksimko it works fine if i run from terminal as open 'Visual Studio Code.app' but still getting alert if start from dock/finder. Thanks

Issue fixed by adding PATH to launchctl setenv PATH
Now it's same as in terminal and no alerts in app. Thank you.
