is it possible to create a docker image for the live coding proxy instead of creating proxy in VSCode extension?

As some dev env is using VScode Devcontainer, creating an image and bind the target container's port would be a solution, besides it wont mess up the exist Dockerfile and docker-compose config. Here's my suggestion

version: "3"
services:
  app:
    build:
      context: .
      build: Dockerfile
    ports:
      - 3000:3000
    labels:
      ...weixinLabels


  wexinProxy:
    images: someimage
    ports:
      - 27082:80
    environments: []

Yes, it is possible to do that without extension completely. The VSCode extension Live Coding is just generating the yaml config and running a series of docker-compose command to rebuild and rerun those containers. You can manually write a config and run them with a terminal or docker official extension.

More detail about what the extension will do are available here.

Note that the networks will be required to be wxcb0 and the labels should be the same as generated config for the extension to detect if the containers are running.
