Make containers compatible with JetBrains' Docker interfacing for remote Xdebug

Good question!

To get in once-off, you can run Lokl's CLI wizard again, choose the site to manage and hit s for entering SSH.

I've started work for next release to allow for easier Xdebug profiling/debugging within the container. I can add IDE integration as part of that work if you're unable to get it working

I need ssh credentials for phpstorm itself to ssh into the docker image to sync files. I can't do this from a ssh terminal.

May need more info re your host OS:

• https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/docker-connection-settings.html
• https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/docker.html

The helper in PHPStorm may make it easy, ie if macOS, I assume it allows you to choose the container to link to easily

I was able to run the docker helper plugin and connect to the machine but in the files tab in the docker panel it.
"Access to file system root. probably this kind of docker image is not supported"
I guess the docker image must configured to work with phpstorm.

Thanks for trying!

This one gives me ideas that we may be able to fix this by replacing some busybox utils with standard ones:

I'll keep this issue open as I can probably resolve this by adjusting the Docker container. Worst case, I can replace Alpine with a different Linux distro altogether.
