Vscode-remote-release: Default devcontainer.json does not appear to work with local Dockerfile creation

[zfields]

• VSCode Version: 1.45.1
• Local OS Version: Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS
• Remote OS Version: debian:10-slim
• Remote Extension/Connection Type: Docker

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Add Development Container Configuration Files..
2. From Dockerfile
3. Reopen in Container

• It successfully builds my image; as expected.
• Then it tags it and inspects the image, okay sure.
• Then it pulls it... Huh?!?

[1940 ms] Command failed: docker pull vsc-kinect-opencv-face-detect-b6311e4ceda974800177e6740e42c166

But of course the repository does not exist.This image was just built locally and has never been pushed _(which I do not want it to be)_. So why is it trying to pull it?

Is this a bug in a script, or is this a bug in a bad configuration file?

If it is the latter, I mostly stuck with the defaults. I only modified runArgs and mounts, both of which should only affect container execution and not the building or image manipulation steps in any way.

devcontainer.json

Background:

I've already built a container as a development environment to support the opensource example code for a tutorial/project I worked on. Now, I'm trying to add remote development files to my existing project, to integrate the project with VSCode.

Project: https://www.hackster.io/zachary_fields/facial-recognition-using-xbox-kinect-and-opencv-3e7ac2
GitHub: https://github.com/zfields/kinect-opencv-face-detect/
DockerHub: https://hub.docker.com/r/zfields/kinect-opencv-face-detect

I pasted my devcontainer.json into the issue, so you should have everything you need to reproduce this issue.

Clearly a bug. I think it is triggered by docker inspect --type image vsc-kinect-opencv-face-detect-b6311e4ceda974800177e6740e42c166 somehow failing. Can you run that in a terminal to see what it does?

Looks fine, I'll fix the docker pull issue, that should then surface the original error.
