Description
Hello,
It could be very nice to pass env variables when we attach a remote container with the Dev Containers extension.
The only way i found from now is to modify the directive "docker.commands.runInteractive" in the settings.json and pass an env variable inside:
"docker.commands.runInteractive": "${containerCommand} run --rm -it -e TOTO=tata ${exposedPorts} ${tag}",
But this way work only when i "Attach Shell" not when i "Attach Visual Studio Code".
Furthermore the "docker.environment" do not work with a remote container.
Thanks :)
