Implementation of [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) remote/web for use
|
|
|
|
|
|
in `code-server`.

|
|
## Docker
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To debug Golang in VS Code using the
|
|
|
|
|
|
[ms-vscode-go extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.Go),
|
|
|
|
|
|
you need to add `--security-opt seccomp=unconfined` to your `docker run`
|
|
|
|
|
|
arguments when launching code-server with Docker. See
|
|
|
|
|
|
[#725](https://github.com/cdr/code-server/issues/725) for details.

## Known Issues
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Creating custom VS Code extensions and debugging them doesn't work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Extension profiling and tips are currently disabled.

|
## Extensions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`code-server` does not provide access to the official
|
|
|
|
|
|
[Visual Studio Marketplace](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/vscode). Instead,
|
|
|
|
|
|
Coder has created a custom extension marketplace that we manage for open-source
|
|
|
|
|
|
extensions. If you want to use an extension with code-server that we do not have
|
|
|
|
|
|
in our marketplace please look for a release in the extension’s repository,
|
|
|
|
|
|
contact us to see if we have one in the works or, if you build an extension
|
|
|
|
|
|
locally from open source, you can copy it to the `extensions` folder. If you
|
|
|
|
|
|
build one locally from open-source please contribute it to the project and let
|
|
|
|
|
|
us know so we can give you props! If you have your own custom marketplace, it is
|
|
|
|
|
|
possible to point code-server to it by setting the `SERVICE_URL` and `ITEM_URL`
|
|
|
|
|
|
environment variables.

## Development: upgrading VS Code
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We patch VS Code to provide and fix some functionality. As the web portion of VS
|
|
|
|
|
|
Code matures, we'll be able to shrink and maybe even entirely eliminate our
|
|
|
|
|
|
patch. In the meantime, however, upgrading the VS Code version requires ensuring
|
|
|
|
|
|
that the patch still applies and has the intended effects.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If functionality doesn't depend on code from VS Code then it should be moved
|
|
|
|
|
|
into code-server otherwise it should be in the patch.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To generate a new patch, **stage all the changes** you want to be included in
|
|
|
|
|
|
the patch in the VS Code source, then run `yarn patch:generate` in this
|
|
|
|
|
|
directory.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
Our changes include:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Allow multiple extension directories (both user and built-in).
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Modify the loader, websocket, webview, service worker, and asset requests to
|
|
|
|
|
|
use the URL of the page as a base (and TLS if necessary for the websocket).
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Send client-side telemetry through the server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
