Using Codespaces in Visual Studio Code

You can develop in your codespace directly in Visual Studio Code by connecting the GitHub Codespaces extension with your account on GitHub.

代码空间可用于使用 GitHub Team 或 GitHub Enterprise Cloud 的组织。更多信息请参阅“GitHub 的产品”。

About Codespaces in Visual Studio Code

You can use your local install of Visual Studio Code to create, manage, work in, and delete codespaces. To use Codespaces in Visual Studio Code, you need to install the GitHub Codespaces extension. For more information on setting up Codespaces in Visual Studio Code, see "Prerequisites."

By default, if you create a new codespace on GitHub.com, it will open in the browser. If you would prefer to open any new codespaces in Visual Studio Code automatically, you can set your default editor to be Visual Studio Code. For more information, see "Setting your default editor for Codespaces."

If you prefer to work in the browser, but want to continue using your existing Visual Studio Code extensions, themes, and shortcuts, you can turn on Settings Sync. For more information, see "Personalizing Codespaces for your account."

Prerequisites

To develop in a codespace directly in Visual Studio Code, you must install and sign into the GitHub Codespaces extension with your GitHub credentials. The GitHub Codespaces extension requires Visual Studio Code October 2020 Release 1.51 or later.

Creating a codespace in Visual Studio Code

After you connect your account on GitHub.com to the GitHub Codespaces extension, you can create a new codespace.

在 Visual Studio Code 中，从左侧边栏单击 Remote Explorer 图标。
单击 Add（添加）图标，然后单击 Create New Codespace（创建新代码空间）。
键入，然后单击要在其中开发仓库的名称。
单击要在其中开发的分支。
Click the machine type you want to develop in.

Note: Your choice of available machine types may be limited by a policy configured for your organization, or by a minimum machine type specification for your repository. For more information, see "Restricting access to machine types" and "Setting a minimum specification for codespace machines."

Opening a codespace in Visual Studio Code

Under "Codespaces", click the codespace you want to develop in.
Click the Connect to Codespace icon.

Changing the machine type in Visual Studio Code

您可以在选择的远程机器上运行代码空间，从 2 核到 32 核。每种类型都有不同的资源水平和不同的计费等级。相关信息请参阅“关于代码空间的计费”。

You can change the machine type of your codespace at any time.

In Visual Studio Code, open the Command Palette (shift command P / shift control P).
Search for and select "Codespaces: Change Machine Type."
Click the codespace that you want to change.
Choose the machine type you want to use.

Note: Your choice of available machine types may be limited by a policy configured for your organization, or by a minimum machine type specification for your repository. For more information, see "Restricting access to machine types" and "Setting a minimum specification for codespace machines."
If the codespace is currently running, a message is displayed asking if you would like to restart and reconnect to your codespace now.

Click Yes if you want to change the machine type used for this codespace immediately.

If you click No, or if the codespace is not currently running, the change will take effect the next time the codespace restarts.
