## Requirements

See [.devcontainer/README.md#Requirements](.devcontainer/README.md#Requirements)

## Setup for a project

1. Setup your configuration files
    - With style 💯

```sh
        docker run -it --rm -v "/yourrepopath:/repository" qmcgaw/devtainr:v0.2.0 -dev rust -path /repository -name projectname
        ```

If you run on Linux not as root, run the `docker run` command with `--user="$(id -u):$(id -g)"`.

Or use the [built binary](https://github.com/qdm12/devtainr#binary)
    - Or manually: download this repository and put the [.devcontainer](.devcontainer) directory in your project.
1. If you have a *.vscode/settings.json*, eventually move the settings to *.devcontainer/devcontainer.json* in the `"settings"` section as *.vscode/settings.json* take precedence over the settings defined in *.devcontainer/devcontainer.json*.
1. Open the command palette in Visual Studio Code (CTRL+SHIFT+P) and select `Remote-Containers: Open Folder in Container...` and choose your project directory
1. See [.devcontainer/README.md#Setup](.devcontainer/README.md#Setup)
