MSSQL_HOST=mssql
MSSQL_PASSWORD='s0m3Str0ng!P@ssw0rd'
docker run --rm --name $MSSQL_HOST \
  -e "ACCEPT_EULA=Y" -e "SA_PASSWORD=$MSSQL_PASSWORD" -p 1433:1433 \

docker cp $PWD/scripts/mssql/db-init.sql mssql:/home/db-init.sql
docker exec $MSSQL_HOST /opt/mssql-tools/bin/sqlcmd -S localhost -U SA -P $MSSQL_PASSWORD -i /home/db-init.sql

# runs MongoDB in a container
MONGODB_HOST=mongodb
docker run --rm --name $MONGODB_HOST -d -p 27017:27017 mongo:5.0

• Create a file src/ConsoleApp/Properties/launchSettings.json

{
  "profiles": {
    "ConsoleApp": {
      "commandName": "Project",
      "commandLineArgs": "run -v -f ../../../../../samples/sqlserver-to-mongodb-migration.yml -f ../../../../../samples/settings.json"
    }
  }
}

• Start debugging ConsoleApp project in Visual Studio
