t1m0thyj/theia-alpine repository overview

⁠Theia Docker

Based on https://github.com/theia-ide/theia-apps/tree/master/theia-docker⁠

⁠How to Use

The following pulls the image and runs Theia IDE on http://localhost:3000⁠ with the current directory as a workspace. The option of --init is added to fix the defunct process problem⁠.

# Linux, macOS, or PowerShell
docker run -it --init -p 3000:3000 -v "$(pwd):/home/project:cached" t1m0thyj/theia-alpine

# Windows (cmd.exe)
docker run -it --init -p 3000:3000 -v "%cd%:/home/project:cached" t1m0thyj/theia-alpine

You can pass additional arguments to Theia after the image name, for example to enable debugging:

# Linux, macOS, or PowerShell
docker run -it --init -p 3000:3000 --expose 9229 -p 9229:9229 -v "$(pwd):/home/project:cached" t1m0thyj/theia-alpine --inspect=0.0.0.0:9229

# Windows (cmd.exe)
docker run -it --init -p 3000:3000 --expose 9229 -p 9229:9229 -v "%cd%:/home/project:cached" t1m0thyj/theia-alpine --inspect=0.0.0.0:9229
