A crazy dockerfile for testing the PowerShell extension for VSCode on CentOS - using CentOS 7, xfce, vnc, PowerShell, VSCode

VSCodePowerShellCentOSDockerfile

FROM consol/centos-xfce-vnc
USER root

# Get PowerShell
RUN sudo yum install https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/releases/download/v6.0.0-rc.2/powershell-6.0.0_rc.2-1.rhel.7.x86_64.rpm -y

# Get git
RUN sudo yum install git -y

# Get VSCode
RUN sudo rpm --import https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc && \
sudo sh -c 'echo -e "[code]\nname=Visual Studio Code\nbaseurl=https://packages.microsoft.com/yumrepos/vscode\nenabled=1\ngpgcheck=1\ngpgkey=https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc" > /etc/yum.repos.d/vscode.repo' && \
yum update -y && \
sudo yum install code -y

# Set to non-root user
RUN useradd -G wheel docker
RUN echo "root" | passwd docker --stdin
RUN sudo chown -R docker: $HOME
USER docker

# Install PowerShell extension
RUN code --install-extension ms-vscode.powershell

# Steps:
# download this docker file to a directory
# cd into that directory
# docker build . -t vscode-powershell-centos-devkit:0.0.1 -f VSCodePowerShellCentOSDockerfile
# docker run -it -p 5901:5901 vscode-powershell-centos-devkit:0.0.1
# Open up your favorite VNC client and connect to localhost:5901
# The default vnc connection password is vncpassword
# The default user "docker" has a password of "root"
# You're ready to go!

# Will be on Docker Hub soon!

Ah! Just saw this. I added the default password in the Dockerfile :)

Also I don't seem to get notifications when people post here - if you have trouble, find me on Twitter (@TylerLeonhardt) 🙂

While trying to run, I am getting the error:
docker run -it -p 5901:5901 vscode-powershell-centos-devkit:0.0.1
Unable to find image 'vscode-powershell-centos-devkit:0.0.1' locally
C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\Resources\bin\docker.exe: Error response from daemon: pull access denied for vscode-powershell-centos-devkit, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login'.
See 'C:\Program Files\Docker\Docker\Resources\bin\docker.exe run --help'.

when doing docker build, I get following output, returning a non-zero code:
docker build . -t vscode-powershell-centos-devkit:0.0.1 -f VSCodePowerShellCentOSDockerfile
