Set Workspace folder

[column]

0

I have created ESP project from sample template with ESP-IDF extension in Visual Studio code. As result I have project folder that contains besides source code and other configuration files folder .devcontainer with devcontainer.json and Dockerfile files. I suppose I need to create container and run project inside of it. I do View->Command Palette->Reopen in Container

I got error message:

Code: Select all

Visual Studio Code
Workspace folder in devcontainer.json must be an absolute path.
[Open devcontainer.json] [Cancel]
What is wrong with my project configuration? How to solve this problem?

Whole devcontainer.json

Code: Select all

// For format details, see https://aka.ms/devcontainer.json. For config options, see the README at:

As mentioned in the error:
Workspace folder in devcontainer.json must be an absolute path

You need to fill in this field
"workspaceFolder": "${localWorkspaceFolder}"

specifically: "${localWorkspaceFolder}" with the path to the workspace.
