Update Documentation for Docker on Mac with USB/Serial passthrough (VSC-1384) #1214
Comments
Hi @emanuelbalea sorry for late reply, I will test using docker container in MacOS but I believe the missing piece is configuring the docker container to see the serial ports. On Windows we have to do usbipd and since many users requested it was added, after we finish v1.8.0 release testing we will update documentation regarding macOS docker container use. Apologies for the delay. |

Just bumping this issue to stop to stale bot as not sure if there is an internal tracking task for this or not. |
Unfortunately USB Passthrough is not yet possible with Docker on macOS as described in this github issue. You can try to use a remote serial port with esptool.py RFC server as shown in here |
How about Intel Mac? |

Description
As a developer I have been trying to maintain a consistent and portable environment between the other developers in the team.
I currently use the docker image for the build server and for dev using Docker via WSL2 on windows where using usbipd works as described at docs/tutorial/using-docker-container.md. However while it mentions mac os near the start there is no other mention of it further along.
Since a lot of our developers now use macbooks for combined ios/esp32 dev, we need to be able to do the same under mac os. Currently build works in docker on mac. However I have not been able to set up usb passthrough using the devcontainer.json file.
Could we please get this documented by someone who understands how devcontainers work? I have not been able to find consistent information about this using google searches as they reference older docker issues or framework versions.
