Installs the Aspire CLI.

"features": {
    "ghcr.io/sliekens/devcontainer-features/aspire-cli:1": {
        "quality": "release"
    }
}

This directory is bind-mounted from the host so that CLI state is preserved across container rebuilds.

Because Docker cannot bind-mount a directory that does not yet exist, consuming devcontainer.json files should add an initializeCommand to pre-create this directory on the host before the container starts:

{
    "image": "mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/base:ubuntu",
    "features": {
        "ghcr.io/sliekens/devcontainer-features/aspire-cli:1": {}
    },
    "initializeCommand": "mkdir -p \"$HOME/.aspire\""
}

• Aspire documentation

• It's just Aspire now

• Install aspire binary to /opt/aspire/bin and expose it via a wrapper script so aspire bundle operations work as a nonroot user.
• Hand ownership of /opt/aspire to the container user at container start so bundle locking and extraction work without elevated privileges.

• Add trailing slash to bind mount source path to mark it explicitly as a directory.

• Use bind mount from host ~/.aspire instead of a Docker volume for persistent state.

• Enabled container tunnel support by default for improved CLI experience in devcontainers (ASPIRE_ENABLE_CONTAINER_TUNNEL set to true).

• Added recommended VS Code extension microsoft-aspire.aspire-vscode.

• Initial release.
