Integration Guides

VSCode Integration

Install the VS-PicList plugin, which integrates directly with PicList desktop software and supports a variety of uploads and cloud deletion operations in VSCode.

Typora Integration

Version 1.6.0-dev and above

Typora 1.6.0-dev and later versions natively support PicList. For versions below 1.10.6, set Typora's language to Chinese.

If your Typora version is below 1.8.0, set both the PicList and PicGo (app) upload service paths to your PicList installation path.

Typora download link

Version < 1.6.0-dev

For Windows, in Typora settings:

  1. Set upload service to PicGo(app)
  2. Set PicGo path to your PicList installation path

Typora configuration

Alternatively, install PicList-core with npm install piclist and set the upload service to PicGo-Core (command line).

Obsidian Integration

  1. Install the "Image auto upload Plugin" from community plugins
  2. Set the default uploader to PicGo(app)
