As it does not answer your question but searching vm arguments I stumbled on this page and there seem to be no other  So if you want to pass vm arguments its like so        version    0 2 0      configurations                  type    java          name    ddtBatch          request    launch          mainClass    com something MyApplication          projectName    MyProject          args    Hello          vmArgs    -Dspring config location   application properties

For more advanced Go language scenarios  you can load an environment file  like this        version    0 2 0      configurations                  name    Launch          type    go          request    launch           mode    debug          remotePath              port   2345         host    127 0 0 1          program      workspaceFolder           envFile      workspaceFolder   env          args               showLog   true               Place the  env file in your folder and add vars like this   KEY1  TEXT VAL1  KEY2    key1  val1   key2   val2      Details  https   medium com  reuvenharrison using-visual-studio-code-to-debug-a-go-program-with-environment-variables-523fea268271

I run vscode from my command line by navigating to the folder with the code and running  code     If you do that all your bash zsh variables are passed into vs code  You can update your  bashrc  zshrc file or just do   export KEY value   before opening it

If you ve already assigned the variables using the npm module dotenv  then they should show up in your global variables  That module is here   While running the debugger  go to your variables tab  right click to reopen if not visible  and then open  global  and then  process   There should then be an env section

Assuming you mean for a debugging session    then you can include a env property in your launch configuration  If you open the  vscode launch json file in your workspace or select Debug  gt  Open Configurations then you should see a set of launch configurations for debugging your code  You can then add to it an env property with a dictionary of string string  Here is an example for an ASP NET Core app from their standard web template setting the ASPNETCORE ENVIRONMENT to Development        quot version quot    quot 0 2 0 quot      quot configurations quot                  quot name quot    quot  NET Core Launch  web  quot          quot type quot    quot coreclr quot          quot request quot    quot launch quot          quot preLaunchTask quot    quot build quot            If you have changed target frameworks  make sure to update the program path         quot program quot    quot   workspaceFolder  bin Debug netcoreapp2 0 vscode-env dll quot          quot args quot              quot cwd quot    quot   workspaceFolder  quot          quot stopAtEntry quot   false         quot internalConsoleOptions quot    quot openOnSessionStart quot          quot launchBrowser quot              quot enabled quot   true           quot args quot    quot   auto-detect-url  quot            quot windows quot                quot command quot    quot cmd exe quot              quot args quot    quot  C start   auto-detect-url  quot                      quot osx quot                quot command quot    quot open quot                      quot linux quot                quot command quot    quot xdg-open quot                            quot env quot              quot ASPNETCORE ENVIRONMENT quot    quot Development quot                  quot sourceFileMap quot              quot  Views quot    quot   workspaceFolder  Views quot                              quot name quot    quot  NET Core Attach quot          quot type quot    quot coreclr quot          quot request quot    quot attach quot          quot processId quot    quot   command pickProcess  quot

My response is fairly late  I faced the same problem  I am on Windows 10  This is what I did   Open a new Command prompt  CMD EXE  Set the environment variables   set myvar1 myvalue1 Launch VS Code from that Command prompt by typing code and then press ENTER VS code was launched and it inherited all the custom variables that I had set in the parent CMD window  Optionally  you can also use the Control Panel - gt  System properties window to set the variables on a more permanent basis Hope this helps

In the VSCode launch json you can use  quot env quot  and configure all your environment variables there         quot version quot    quot 0 2 0 quot        quot configurations quot                                       quot env quot                      quot NODE ENV quot    quot development quot                    quot port quot   quot 1337 quot
