Run JetBrains IDEs in your Codespace and connect to it via Projector.
- Plugins and settings should be maintained as long as you don't delete the Codespace (suspending should be ok).
- Git credentials should be injected via the normal process and work.
- Dotfiles should be installed via the normal Codespaces process.
Note: This is more or less just a hack that leverages that fact that Codespaces lets you influence what it runs in Docker and will do port forwarding for you.
- Launch this repo as a Codespace
- Connect to http://127.0.0.1:8887 in a browser or with the Projector client application.
- You can customize which IDE you run via the
FROMline in the Dockerfile. The complete list of images that JetBrains publishes can be found here. - You will probably want add any SDKs or other tools you need to the Dockerfile so that they are automatically installed.
- If you aren't active in VSCode for 30 min, it is probably going to suspend the Codespace due to inactivity :-(.
- No state is saved if you delete the Codespace.
