Add bash start container command before vscode debug command

[rickstaa]

System information

• OS: Ubuntu 16.04
• VSCode: v1.36.0-insders
• Singularity: 3.2.1

Problem description

I'm currently trying to debug a python script that needs access to a python environment that is inside a singularity container. I was, therefore, wondering if there is an option to set a pre to debug command before the debug command.

Example:

singularity run --nv CONTAINER; VSCODE debug command

Thanks for submitting this issue. Please also check if it is already covered by an existing one, like:

• External file changes only detected if file is open (#73342)
• VSCode integrated terminal is opening terminals externally after the new update has been performed (#75523)

VSCode does not support running debug from the command line. There is already an open feature request for that.
Thus closing this a duplicate of that issue (you can search for existing issues to find it)

@isidorn Thanks for your answer. Can you maybe link it to the existing issue? I, unfortunately, could not find it using the debug from the command line search stream.
