How it works

Why

Currently, there is no way to start docker containers while opening a workspace or switching to another. We may end up with an extra step of running a command or manually starting via UI. This issue can be solved using Docker Run.

Features

  • Automatically start containers for the current workspace
  • Automatically stop non-related containers for the current workspace
  • Support for start all and stop all containers for current workspace
  • Configurable via VS Code settings, .dockerrc file and commands
  • Control and view container state from the status bar
  • Perfect companion extension for vscode docker

Installation

To install the extension, open the extensions view, search for docker run to filter results and select Docker Run extension.

Usage

  • Once installed we can configure the extension using the wizard that will show automatically every time you open a project.

Initial configuration

  • You can see the status of containers and configure the extension via the status bar.
