The 'light' background can't work when setting colorscheme to the 'visual_studio_code'

[alexya]

I like the Visual Studio Code default color scheme Light+ very much and found that you are creating a color scheme including light and dark like Visual Studio Code for Neovim. Thank you very much.

macOS: Sonoma 14.4.1
iterm2: Build 3.4.23
NVIM v0.9.5

My config is here: https://github.com/alexya/josean-dev-env/tree/main/.config/nvim

I set to use the <leader>bg to switch background, and <leader>co to change the colorscheme. (The leader is space key)
Please watch the repro video, when changing from the modus colorscheme to tokyonight, it worked fine. But next when I tried to switch to visual_studio_code, it failed. And changed the background to 'dark' automatically. Even if I forced to set it to 'light', it still shows as 'dark' with incorrect color. All the other colorscheme can work fine under 'light' and 'dark'.

I tried to rm -rf ~/.local/share/nvim and opened Neovim again. The problem still existed.

I don't know why. I am not good at debugging Neovim and its plugins. Any help will be much appreciated.
thx.

Predictably, the theme uses the dark color scheme by default.

When you use the colorscheme command to modify the color scheme, essentially it runs colors/visual_studio_code.vim file.

The workaround is that you need to manually call setup and set mode to light, but not use the vim.cmd([[colorscheme visual_studio_code]]) command.

It should take effect when you manually call the [[colorscheme visual_studio_code]] command in the command line.

Do you mean set like this? https://github.com/alexya/josean-dev-env/blob/main/.config/nvim/lua/josean/plugins/colorscheme.lua#L17
I ever did it, but it still can't work.
