This repository contains a devcontainer tailored towards modern (embedded) C++ development.
This repository is under active development; see pulse for more details.
Two devcontainers are published towards the GitHub Container Registry:
- amp-devcontainer; the base container including all tools mentioned below
- amp-devcontainer-vscode; as above, but including a full Visual Studio Code configuration that is compatible with GitHub Codespaces
The amp-devcontainer built from this repository contains compilers and tools to facilitate modern (embedded) C++ development. The amp-devcontainer includes support for host- and cross-compilation using gcc, arm-gcc and clang compilers. Next to the compilers there is support for code-coverage measurement, mutation testing (using mull), fuzzing (using libfuzzer) and static analysis (clang-format, clang-tidy, clangd, include-what-you-use). The default build system is set up to use CMake, Ninja and CCache.
For the full list of all included tools and tool versions see the Dependency Graph, the SBOM published with a release, or the SBOM attached to the image.
The amp-devcontainer-vscode is a, slightly more, opinionated variant that can be used in Visual Studio Code or GitHub Codespaces without any additional configuration. All included tools are set-up and necessary plug-ins will be installed at container start. This behavior is implemented by appending devcontainer metadata to an image label according to the specifications. It is possible to override, amend or change the options following this merge logic.
The container images are signed with SigStore Cosign using a keyless signing method.
The signature can be verified with the following command (using Docker), verifying that the image is actually signed by the GitHub CI system:
amp-devcontainer
docker run --rm gcr.io/projectsigstore/cosign verify ghcr.io/philips-software/amp-devcontainer --certificate-oidc-issuer https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com --certificate-identity-regexp https://github.com/philips-software/amp-devcontaineramp-devcontainer-vscode
docker run --rm gcr.io/projectsigstore/cosign verify ghcr.io/philips-software/amp-devcontainer-vscode --certificate-oidc-issuer https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com --certificate-identity-regexp https://github.com/philips-software/amp-devcontainerThe resulting containers can be used in a .devcontainer.json file or in a .devcontainer folder.
Note
While the following examples use the latest tag, it is recommended to pin to a specific version. Or better yet, a specific SHA.
.devcontainer/devcontainer.json or .devcontainer.json
{
"image": "ghcr.io/philips-software/amp-devcontainer:latest"
}.devcontainer/devcontainer.json or .devcontainer.json
{
"image": "ghcr.io/philips-software/amp-devcontainer-vscode:latest"

The container can be built and tested locally by importing this repository in VS Code with the Remote Containers plug-in installed. As a prerequisite Docker needs to be installed on the host system. Alternatively a GitHub Codespace can be started.
A test task is available to run the included bats tests. Choose Tasks: Run Test Task from the command pallette (Ctrl + Shift + P).
