Development Container Features

This repository contains a collection of community supported Dev Container Features that allow you to quickly and easily add more tooling, runtime, or library "Features" into your Development Container for you or your collaborators to use.

Usage

To reference a Feature from this repository, add the desired Features to your devcontainer.json file and configure any additional options.

The example below installs the bosh and credhub cli Features as declared in the ./src directory of this repository.

See the relevant Feature's README for supported options.

{
    "name": "my-project-devcontainer",
    "image": "mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/base:ubuntu", // Any generic, debian-based image.
    "features": {
        "ghcr.io/nulldriver/devcontainer-features/bosh-cli:1": {
            "version": "7.1"
        },
        "ghcr.io/nulldriver/devcontainer-features/credhub-cli:1": {
            "version": "2.9"
        }
    }
}

The :latest version annotation is added implicitly if omitted. To pin to a specific package version (example), append it to the end of the Feature. Features follow semantic versioning conventions, so you can pin to a major version :1, minor version :1.0, or patch version :1.0.0 by specifying the appropriate label.

"features": {
    "ghcr.io/nulldriver/devcontainer-features/bosh-cli:1.0.0": {
        "version": "7.1"
    }
}
