Vscode-remote-release: Remote containers: Support of changing folder mount path without Docker Compose

Created on 4 May 2019  路  3Comments  路  Source: microsoft/vscode-remote-release

It would be useful if the workspaceFolder setting in devcontainer.json worked for changing the folder mount path without using Docker Compose. This would make it easier to integrate with existing container setups.

workspaceFolder won't change the mount point, it will only change which folder VS Code opens on. We will add another option to control the mount point and options.

FYI - Most of the discussion related to this is happening in #171 which expands the scope beyond this slightly but would necessitate this kind of change. workspaceFolder is still needed to allow you to pick a different folder inside the container or volume mount where the project exists. We're discussing a new property for this kind of thing among others.
