    const menu = getMenu();
    mainmenu.push(menu);
}

response.println(JSON.stringify(mainmenu));

const extensions = require("core/extensions");

const mainmenu = [];
const menuExtensions = extensions.getExtensions("ide-menu");
for (let i = 0; i < menuExtensions.length; i++) {
    const extensionPath = menuExtensions[i];
    const menuExtension = require(extensionPath);
    const menu = menuExtension.getMenu();
    mainmenu.push(menu);
