postCreateCommand Fails Due to Missing Go Binary in Runtime Image #1644
Description
Description
The postCreateCommand in the devcontainer.json file fails with the error /bin/sh: go: not found.
Explanation
The issue arises because the go command is not available in the container during the execution of the postCreateCommand in the devcontainer.json file. This happens because the base Alpine image used in the second stage of the Dockerfile does not include the Go runtime or tools, as they are only present in the builder stage.
Environment Details
- Host OS: macOS (macOS sequoia 15.3.1)
- Devcontainer: Using VS Code Remote - Containers
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
- Use the provided Dockerfile.
- Attempt to build and run the container in a development environment using a
devcontainer.json. - Observe the error: /bin/sh: go: not found.
