sleemer / docker.dotnet.debug Goto Github PK

Running docker run is not showing anything in console. Can you update "how to run" in readme?

Hi,
An option for allowing debugging without needing to recreate the container everytime is to use a volume to share vsdbg and the source code with the container.

Given a multistage Dockerfile, that builds your netcore image and a valid compose file that allows you to start it, you can write another compose file to debug your container:

version: '3.4'

services:
  api:
    image: myapi:dev
    build:
      target: base
    labels:
      - "com.microsoft.visualstudio.targetoperatingsystem=linux"
    environment:
      - ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Development
      - DOTNET_USE_POLLING_FILE_WATCHER=1
    volumes:
      - .:/app
      - ~/.nuget/packages:/root/.nuget/packages:ro
      - ~/vsdbg-core:/vsdbg:ro
    entrypoint: tail -f /dev/null

Key points:

• Using a bind mount to share the source code with container
• Using a bind mount to share nuget cache
• Using a bind mount to share vsdbg with the container (for this to work you need to download vsdbg on your host of course)
• Stay on "base" stage
• Redefining entrypoint to "do nothing"

Basically this compose makes my container to be "like the basic image" (base stage), and do nothing. Source code and vsdbg is provided through bind mounts. You can start the container once and "forget about it". Then just need a "docker exec" to run vsdbg on it.

Base stage is the typical initial stage in the Dockerfile:

FROM microsoft/dotnet:2.1-aspnetcore-runtime AS base
EXPOSE 80
# end of this stage

Really nice
Can you please update to vs code 1.25 seems most of it is deprecated

Hi, thanks for sharing your config, but unfortunately it isn't working properly with the latest version of VSCode.

I tried to apply to my project and it didn't work, and then I decided to use your git sample but I still getting the same error:

Starting: "docker" exec -i docker.dotnet.debug_1 /vsdbg/vsdbg --interpreter=vscode Error from pipe program 'docker': Error: No such container: docker.dotnet.debug_1

Could you highlight how can I solve this issue? have you tested with the latest version of VSCode?

Best regards,
M
