Docker Containers commands in Remote Development

[enjibby]

When using Remote Development extensions, the commands for Docker Containers (e.g. "View Logs", "Attach Shell") are being executed in the terminal shell. This means that, if I am remote-developing inside a docker container, the commands fail because the docker client is on the host, not inside the container.

@unfalln I'm not entirely following your scenario, but please see #954. You can force the Docker extension to run in the remote with this setting:

"remote.extensionKind": {
    "ms-azuretools.vscode-docker": "workspace"
}

If that doesn't help, please add more detailed repro steps to this issue

Happy Coding!

To clarify, this is a request for some of the functionality described in #954 , primarily:

An API to create a terminal on the local machine (instead of in the container) to run commands like "Build Image"

I am looking for this moreso for the "View Logs" command to run on the local machine rather than in the container.

I will leave this closed as it is already outlined elsewhere.
