Requirements

Setup for a project

  1. Setup your configuration files
    • With style 💯

      docker run -it --rm -v "/yourrepopath:/repository" qmcgaw/devtainr:v0.2.0 -dev go -path /repository -name projectname

      Or use the built binary

    • Or manually: download this repository and put the .devcontainer directory in your project.

  2. If you have a .vscode/settings.json, eventually move the settings to .devcontainer/devcontainer.json in the "settings" section as .vscode/settings.json take precedence over the settings defined in .devcontainer/devcontainer.json.
  3. Open the command palette in Visual Studio Code (CTRL+SHIFT+P) and select Dev Containers: Open Folder in Container... and choose your project directory

Customization

See the .devcontainer/README.md document in your repository.
