Set Docker Compose project name
Visual Studio Code will respect the value of the COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME environment variable if set for the VS Code process or in a .env
file in the root of the project.
For example, after shutting down all VS Code windows, you can start VS Code from the command line as follows:
# from bash
COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME=foo code .
# from PowerShell
$env:COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME=foo
code .
Or add the following to a .env
file in the root of the project (not in the .devcontainer
folder):
COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME=foo
