Move default device settings from ".vscode/settings.json"

Feature Requests

The .vscode/settings.json stores a lot of configs related to VSCode that you have to share with the team, settings that are not Torizon specific, like files.associations, for example.

However, settings like the containers.environment, torizon_ip, torizon_psswd, torizon_login, host_ip, to name a few are highly specific to a particular development environment and should not be shared with the rest of the team.

Please change the Torizon IDE to use another file for the settings that are local/specific to a single developer, file that is added by default to .gitignore. Also make the Torizon IDE give clear error messages if the file is not present, (after a fresh project git clone, for example) and how to generate/configure it.

Thank you,

Just to give an update a ticket was created in our IDE team’s backlog to discuss the request you brought forward here.

That said it may be a while till this gets discussed and something implemented (if the team does decide to implement anything). As there are other pressing priorities and tasks for the team.

That said, thank you for bringing this request to our attention for our team to consider.

Best Regards,
Jeremias
