scala-sbt-vscode-remote-container

A remote container for working with Scala in Visual Studio Code without package installation/configuration headache

Services installation

You can install following dependency managers:

• SBT: Installed by default; controlled by argument INSTALL_SBT
• Maven: To install, set variable INSTALL_MAVEN to true in devcontainer.json
• Gradle: To install, set variable INSTALL_GRADLE to true in devcontainer.json
• Spark: To install Spark locally (spark-shell...), set variable INSTALL_SPARK to true in devcontainer.json

Corporate proxy

INFO: To workaround corporate VPN; you must have some kind of proxy setup on your machine (ex: Cntlm). That proxy must be running to run the development container.

To enable proxy usage for the remote env, add the following args to devcontainer.json:

1. "HTTP_PROXY_HOST": "host.docker.internal". This is the default proxy that docker uses internally.
2. "HTTP_PROXY_PORT": "3128"

You also need to specify those settings for VSCode's metals extension:

"http.proxy": "http://host.docker.internal:3128",
"metals.serverProperties": [
    "-Dhttps.proxyHost=host.docker.internal",
    "-Dhttps.proxyPort=3128",
    "-Dhttp.proxyHost=host.docker.internal",
    "-Dhttp.proxyPort=3128"
],
