A task provider allows to add tasks to the task service. A task provider is registered via {@link tasks.registerTaskProvider}.
Fields
resolveTask(task:T, token:CancellationToken):ProviderResult<T>
Resolves a task that has no {@linkcode Task.execution execution} set. Tasks are
often created from information found in the tasks.json-file. Such tasks miss
the information on how to execute them and a task provider must fill in
the missing information in the resolveTask-method. This method will not be
called for tasks returned from the above provideTasks method since those
tasks are always fully resolved. A valid default implementation for the
resolveTask method is to return undefined.
Note that when filling in the properties of task, you must be sure to
use the exact same TaskDefinition and not create a new one. Other properties
may be changed.
Parameters:
task | The task to resolve. |

token | A cancellation token. |
Returns:
The resolved task
provideTasks(token:CancellationToken):ProviderResult<Array<T>>

Parameters:
token | A cancellation token. |
