TheDiveO's Dev Container Features

A collection of somewhat weird unique Dev Container features, currently not found elsewhere (to the best of my knowledge). With an emphasis on Go tooling not already covered by the VSCode Go plugin.

Where applicable, multiple different distribution base images are supported, but unfortunately only to the limitation of different distribution support in Dev Containers features we rely on. In case of Go tools, this unfortunately leaves out Alpine, because Microsoft's Go Dev Container feature does not support Alpine.

  • bpftool – installs bpftool directly from upstream https://github.com/libbpf/bpftool binary releases, especially avoiding the usual pain of upstream Debian/Ubuntu kernel-specific bpftool packages.

  • docsify – automatically serves ./docs workspace directory via docsify serve in the background (with the specific workspace location being configurable).

  • gocover – provides a gocover command to run conveniently unit tests and update a README.md coverage badge, supporting a set of presets. This even supports running coverage both as the container developer user as well as root, and then aggregating coverage. Additionally, a coverage badge is automatically maintained in the repository's README.md.

  • go-ebpf – installs clang and llvm, and on top Cilium's bpf2go to develop Go tools using eBPF.

  • go-mod-upgrade – provides obligot's go-mod-upgrade for updating outdated Go dependencies interactively.

  • goreportcard – provides goreportcard-clithat creates a Go report and a README.md badge on the code quality of a repository.

  • local-pkgsite – a local Go pkgsite serving the module documentation, with automatic project reload and browser refresh.

  • pin-github-action – provides mheaps's pin-github-action for pinning GitHub actions to specific hashes.

  • wal-wahl – install multiple Docker CE versions inside your devcontainer, quickly switching and activating one of them at a time.
