Node TypeScript not found on MCR

[dfberry]

Most of the prog language dev containers on MCR are having problems. Many azure-samples depend on these containers.

For this container, I used the latest VSCode and selected the container from the drop down list. I didn't hand-enter anything so this should have worked.

Mac/Apple silicon

Here is the result.

[chrmarti]

Thanks for reporting this. The templates got out-of-sync with the images we build. We are working on updating them. (devcontainers/templates#405)

[diberry]

@chrmarti When I watch the image build, it looks like it is rolling through all the Azure SDKs for that language - that takes a very long time. Is that necessary. I don't use all the SDKs or all the services.

Actually this is about the dev container feature for azure cli - not specifically the containers.

[chrmarti]

@dfberry That sounds like a feature request for the Azure CLI feature. Could you open one in https://github.com/devcontainers/features?

The templates are updated now. Looking into adding CI checks for this before I close it.
