A collection of dev container Features hosted on GitHub Container Registry.

Installs the LazyVim starter configuration as the default Neovim config (~/.config/nvim).
Skipped automatically if ~/.config/nvim already exists (e.g. mounted from host).

Usage in devcontainer.json:

{
    "image": "mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/base:ubuntu",
    "features": {
        "ghcr.io/xavierbeheydt/devcontainer-extras/lazyvim:0": {}
    }
}

What it does:

1. Checks whether ~/.config/nvim already exists — if so, skips installation.
2. Clones the LazyVim/starter repository into ~/.config/nvim.
3. Removes the .git folder from the cloned config (so it's not a nested git repo).
4. Sets ownership of the config directory to the remote user.

Prerequisites:

This feature depends on Neovim being available. It is recommended to install it via another feature first:

{
    "features": {
        "ghcr.io/duduribeiro/devcontainer-features/neovim:1": {},
        "ghcr.io/xavierbeheydt/devcontainer-extras/lazyvim:0": {}
    }
}

The installsAfter property in devcontainer-feature.json ensures lazyvim is installed after neovim.

Features are published to GHCR via the Release workflow.
