Github Codespaces - Connect to mysql-db


I have configured my db-connection in my *.env-file in my Laravel Framework 9.48.0 project, which I would like to try on github codespaces. I want to connect to an externally hosted db server.

When running php artisan migrate I get:

@githubcoder ➜ /workspaces/ghProject (main ✗) $ php artisan migrate:fresh
Xdebug: [Step Debug] Could not connect to debugging client. Tried: localhost:9003 (through xdebug.client_host/xdebug.client_port).

I tried to enable ;extension=pdo_mysql.so however in my php.ini file this option does not exist:

  • I fixed this issue using Devcontainers. Here is my config:

        "settings": {
            "#terminal.integrated.shell.linux": "/bin/bash"
        },
        // Use 'forwardPorts' to make a list of ports inside the container available locally.
        "forwardPorts": [80],
    
        // Use 'postCreateCommand' to run commands after the container is created.
        "postCreateCommand": "cp .env.example .env && composer install && php artisan key:generate && yarn install && yarn run development",
