# Development container
Development container that can be used with VSCode.
It works on Linux, Windows (WSL2) and OSX.
## Requirements
- [VS code](https://code.visualstudio.com/download) installed
- [VS code dev containers extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.remote-containers) installed
- [Docker](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop) installed and running
- [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) installed
## Setup
1. Create the following files on your host if you don't have them:
```sh
touch ~/.gitconfig ~/.zsh_history
```
1. **For OSX hosts**: ensure your home directory `~` is accessible by Docker.
1. Open the command palette in Visual Studio Code (CTRL+SHIFT+P).
1. Select `Dev-Containers: Open Folder in Container...` and choose the project directory.
## Customization
For customizations to take effect, you should "rebuild and reopen":
1. Open the command palette in Visual Studio Code (CTRL+SHIFT+P)
2. Select `Dev-Containers: Rebuild Container`
Customizations available are notably:
- Changes to the Docker image in [Dockerfile](Dockerfile)
- Changes to VSCode **settings** and **extensions** in [devcontainer.json](devcontainer.json).
- Change the entrypoint script by adding in [docker-compose.yml](docker-compose.yml) a bind mount to a shell script to `/root/.welcome.sh` to replace the [current welcome script](https://github.com/qdm12/godevcontainer/blob/master/shell/.welcome.sh). For example:
```yml
volumes:
# ...
- ./.welcome.sh:/root/.welcome.sh:ro
# ...
```
- Change the docker container configuration in [docker-compose.yml](docker-compose.yml).
- More customizations available are documented in the [devcontainer.json reference](https://containers.dev/implementors/json_reference/).
