Visual Studio Code Docker extension

Docker Runner - Docker Integration for VSC

Please note this is an early alpha version, so it may have bugs and missing features. However I think it can be already very useful. I am still experimenting a lot and I am planning to add much more features in the future.

How to start?

Press Alt+Ctrl+D to activate.

Make sure your local drive is shared, as the extension will attempt to map current directory to the containers.

What this extension can do for you now?

• Search and pull Docker images from Docker Hub
• Easily manage local images
• Manage local containers
• Easily copy files between local filesystem and container file system
• Pin your favourite containers to the main menu

Search and pull images from Docker Hub

You can directly search images in Docker Hub by using Search Images option from the main menu.

If you choose Pull & Pin to the menu option image will appear in the main menu. Default command line parameters are stored in config.js file. You can edit this file by selecting Edit Configuration option. Edit following line to change any required options:

  "run": "-i -t --rm --name $default-name -v $workspace:$src ubuntu sh"
