Development Container Templates
 |
Development Container Templates A simple set of dev container 'templates' to help get you up and running with a containerized environment. |
A development container is a running Docker container with a well-defined tool/runtime stack and its prerequisites. It allows you to use a container as a full-featured development environment which can be used to run an application, to separate tools, libraries, or runtimes needed for working with a codebase, and to aid in continuous integration and testing.
This repository contains a set of Dev Container Templates which are source files packaged together that encode configuration for a complete development environment. A Template can be used in a new or existing project, and a supporting tool will use the configuration from the template to build a development container.
Contents
src- A collection of subfolders, each declaring a template. Each subfolder contains at least adevcontainer-template.jsonand a devcontainer.json.test- Mirroringsrc, a folder-per-template with at least atest.shscript. These tests are executed by the CI.
Contributions
Creating your own collection of templates
The Dev Container Template specification outlines a pattern for community members and organizations to self-author Templates in repositories they control.
A starter repository devcontainers/template-starter and GitHub Action are available to help bootstrap self-authored Templates.
We are eager to hear your feedback on self-authoring! Please provide comments and feedback on spec issue #71.
