Azure-docs: A bit mysterious to me

Created on 1 Aug 2018 · 7Comments · Source: MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs

Hi,

I've played around with Azure Dev Spaces, so far I'm liking it but it is still somewhat mysterious to me what's happening behind the scenes in Azure / Kubernetes (what is being provisioned) and how VSCode/VS communicate with it. It would be nice to see a more elaborate description (maybe with some illustrations as well) in the future.

We are discussing this. We have a document that we'd like to publish that should help shed light on how the service works.

Thanks @spacecat. I have assigned this to the content author to review and see if we can add more details to the doc.

Interested in this as well. Somehow you are keeping this container running in an AKS cluster synchronized with the source code on my machine.

After inspecting the pod in the cluster it seems like you are using something called 'mindaro' which I can't seem to find any good documentation of.

In addition there's this volume mounted on the container, but isn't listed through kubectl get pv,pvc --all-namespaces:

...
  mindaro-source-share:
    Type:        AzureFile (an Azure File Service mount on the host and bind mount to the pod)
    SecretName:  azds-storage
    ShareName:   azds/default/webfrontend/docker
    ReadOnly:    false
...
