I'm using VS Code to write Lambda functions using the dotnet core 2.0 CLI.
- VS Code v1.24.1
- dotnet Core CLI v2.1.200
Problem
I can't get the debugger to work locally with the function I've written in VS Code.
I place a breakpoint on the line var body = request?.Body; (See Function.cs code block below). When I then click the start debugging button in the Debug tab in VS Code, I get the following:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
You may only use the Microsoft .NET Core Debugger (vsdbg) with
Visual Studio Code, Visual Studio or Visual Studio for Mac software
to help you develop and test your applications.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Loaded 'C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App\2.0.7\System.Private.CoreLib.dll'. Skipped loading symbols. Module is optimized and the debugger option 'Just My Code' is enabled.

The program '[49584] ClientManagement.TestAsyncFunction.Tests.dll' has exited with code 0 (0x0).
Function.cs
The Lambda Function uses the APIGatewayEvents package to accept a request from the API Gateway
public async Task<APIGatewayProxyResponse> FunctionHandler(APIGatewayProxyRequest request, ILambdaContext context)
{
var body = request?.Body;
// do something asynchronously
return new APIGatewayProxyResponse()
{
Body = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(body),
StatusCode = 200,
Headers = new Dictionary<string, string>{ {"Content-Type", "application/json"} }
};
}
launch.json
I've configured this to use the Function.cs dll's (The file that was created by vs code was hitting the test project)
"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [
{
"name": ".NET Core Launch (lambda)",
"type": "coreclr",
"request": "launch",
"preLaunchTask": "build",

},

}
}
I've seen this post here:
https://cloudncode.blog/2017/01/24/getting-started-with-writing-and-debugging-aws-lambda-function-with-visual-studio-code/
But I don't think this method will work for dotnet core 2.0. I've also done a lot of googling and have found almost no information on how to debug dotnet core 2.0 functions in VS Code.
