How to provide private templates? #27

Closed max06 closed 11 months ago

max06 commented 11 months ago

Hello there!

The documentation says:

Templates listed here will be presented in the UX of supporting tools.

Is there a way to provide an additional source for templates to select from, like from a non-public gitlab instance, the same way current templates are shown?

(Alternatively I'm looking for a way to share one container with multiple repositories, something like Reopen/Clone in existing container...)

Hello! 👋

I believe you are looking for a private index for private Templates? I don't think we currently have that wired up, but we had similar discussions in the past. See https://github.com/devcontainers/spec/discussions/136 and https://github.com/devcontainers/spec/issues/71#issuecomment-1415959648.

Do those issues sound similar to your question? If so, feel free to chime in https://github.com/devcontainers/spec/issues/71
