Read the manifest (`package.json`) of any installed Visual Studio Code extension

## Installation

`npm install vscode-read-manifest -S`

## Usage

`readManifest(packageID?: string)` / `readManifestSync(packageID?: string)`

You can omit the package ID to retrieve the manifest of the package in use

**Example**:

```js
const { readManifest, readManifestSync } = require('vscode-read-manifest');

// Unique package identifier
const packageID = 'idleberg.applescript';

// Asynchronous
(async () => {
    const manifest = await readManifest(packageID);
    console.log(manifest);
})();

// Synchronous
const manifest = readManifestSync(packageID);
console.log(manifest);
```
