Repo and Template Structure

This repository contains a collection of Templates. These Templates serve as simple template implementations which helps containerize the project. Similar to the devcontainers/templates repo, this repository has a src folder. Each Template has its own sub-folder, containing at least a devcontainer-template.json and .devcontainer/devcontainer.json.

Options

All available options for a Template should be declared in the devcontainer-template.json. The syntax for the options property can be found in the devcontainer Template json properties reference.

For example, the color Template provides three possible options (red, gold, green), where the default value is set to "red".

{
    // ...
    "options": {
        "favorite": {
            "type": "string",
            "description": "Choose your favorite color."
            "proposals": [
                "red",
                "gold",
                "green"
            ],
            "default": "red"
        }
    }
}

An implementing tool will use the options property from the documented Dev Container Template properties for customizing the Template. See option resolution example for details.
