This definition creates two containers, one for C# (.NET) and one for Azure Cosmos DB Emulator. VS Code will attach to the .NET Core container, and from within that container the Azure Cosmos DB Emulator container will be available on localhost port 8081. For more on the configuration of Azure Cosmos DB Emulator, see the document Configuration options

[Optional] Include any special setup requirements here. For example:

While the definition itself works unmodified, you can select the version of YOUR RUNTIME HERE the container uses by updating the VARIANT arg in the included .devcontainer/devcontainer.json file.

"args": { "VARIANT": "6.0-bullseye" }

"forwardPorts": [ 8081 ]

This port is used by Azure Cosmos DB Emulator to expose Explorer. The explorer can be accessed at https://localhost:8081/_explorer/index.html .

1. If this is your first time using a development container, please see getting started information on setting up Remote-Containers or creating a codespace using GitHub Codespaces.

2. Start VS Code and open your project folder or connect to a codespace.

3. Press F1 select and Add Development Container Configuration Files... command for Remote-Containers or Codespaces.

   Note: If needed, you can drag-and-drop the .devcontainer folder from this sub-folder in a locally cloned copy of this repository into the VS Code file explorer instead of using the command.

4. Select this definition. You may also need to select Show All Definitions... for it to appear.

5. Finally, press F1 and run Remote-Containers: Reopen Folder in Container or Codespaces: Rebuild Container to start using the definition.

This definition includes some test code that will help you verify it is working as expected on your system. Follow these steps:
