FastAPI Docker Debugger

[Kludex]

Description

As a VSCode user I want to be able to debug my FastAPI application living inside a Docker container. 🎉

More information

The web framework is growing, and I think the community will benefit from this feature. 😎

Besides, a PR was accepted on the Python VSCode extension with the same purpose, but without Docker: microsoft/vscode-python#14247

The idea is to have the option Python: FastAPI on the Docker: Initialize for Docker debugging:

Notes

• I'll be working on this. I'll link the PR when I've finished. 🧑‍🏭
• Please let me know if this feature will not be accepted, so I stop working on it 🌻

Thanks for the suggestion! As long as the Python extension supports FastAPI remote debugging (which it probably does), then this should be possible. We'll take a look.

EDIT: I had missed that you'd be working on a PR. Thanks!

Fwiw, it should be similar to what's on the Flask one.

@karolz-ms @bwateratmsft Thank you for accepting the idea! I'll be pushing a PR in the next days.

Hey @Kludex, any updates on this?

@bwateratmsft I've started. But I lost track of it.

I'll be working (and hopefully) finishing it this weekend. :)

This is now released in Docker extension version 1.11.0.
