gcloud not available from within the dev container

[MaxKessler5]

I'm trying to run the project from within the dev container, using vs code on a windows machine. When I open a terminal in the dev container, it doesn't recognize gcloud as a command. This (seems to be) getting in the way of authenticating with earth engine. Is my container set up improperly? Is the gcloud command not necessary within the container?

Max, Sadly, I’m so not an expert when it comes to docker and specifically devcontainers. The .devcontainer folder files where recently created by Thomas Pentenrieder whom I’m working with regarding issues #83 - 86. It seem logical that you would have to install a gcloud “app” if you want to use that but I don’t know how that would be done, sorry! IIRC I authenticate with earthengine using a credentials file, in ~/.config/earthengine but I can’t quite remember how I got that file created (It’s been years) BTW as people start using devcontainers I would very much like to add a How-to of sorts to my ReadMe.md so I would appreciate any help you and others could provide in setting this up.
