Our primary support channel is Discord. * [Blog](https://blog.linuxserver.io) - all the things you can do with our containers including How-To guides, opinions and much more! # [linuxserver/code-server](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-code-server) [![](https://img.shields.io/discord/354974912613449730.svg?logo=discord&label=LSIO%20Discord&style=flat-square)](https://discord.gg/YWrKVTn) [![](https://images.microbadger.com/badges/version/linuxserver/code-server.svg)](https://microbadger.com/images/linuxserver/code-server "Get your own version badge on microbadger.com") [![](https://images.microbadger.com/badges/image/linuxserver/code-server.svg)](https://microbadger.com/images/linuxserver/code-server "Get your own version badge on microbadger.com") ![Docker Pulls](https://img.shields.io/docker/pulls/linuxserver/code-server.svg) ![Docker Stars](https://img.shields.io/docker/stars/linuxserver/code-server.svg) [![Build Status](https://ci.linuxserver.io/buildStatus/icon?job=Docker-Pipeline-Builders/docker-code-server/master)](https://ci.linuxserver.io/job/Docker-Pipeline-Builders/job/docker-code-server/job/master/) [![](https://lsio-ci.ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com/linuxserver/code-server/latest/badge.svg)](https://lsio-ci.ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com/linuxserver/code-server/latest/index.html) [Code-server](https://coder.com) is VS Code running on a remote server, accessible through the browser. - Code on your Chromebook, tablet, and laptop with a consistent dev environment. - If you have a Windows or Mac workstation, more easily develop for Linux. - Take advantage of large cloud servers to speed up tests, compilations, downloads, and more. - Preserve battery life when you're on the go. - All intensive computation runs on your server. - You're no longer running excess instances of Chrome. [![code-server](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linuxserver/docker-templates/master/linuxserver.io/img/.png)](https://coder.com) ## Supported Architectures Our images support multiple architectures such as `x86-64`, `arm64` and `armhf`. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker [here](https://github.com/docker/distribution/blob/master/docs/spec/manifest-v2-2.md#manifest-list) and our announcement [here](https://blog.linuxserver.io/2019/02/21/the-lsio-pipeline-project/). Simply pulling `linuxserver/code-server` should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags. The architectures supported by this image are: | Architecture | Tag | | :----: | --- | | x86-64 | amd64-latest | | arm64 | arm64v8-latest | | armhf | arm32v7-latest | ## Usage Here are some example snippets to help you get started creating a container. ### docker ``` docker create \ --name=code-server \ -e PUID=1000 \ -e PGID=1000 \ -e TZ=Europe/London \ -e PASSWORD=password \ -p 8443:8443 \ -v /path/to/appdata/config:/config \ --restart unless-stopped \ linuxserver/code-server ``` ### docker-compose Compatible with docker-compose v2 schemas. ``` --- version: "2" services: code-server: image: linuxserver/code-server container_name: code-server environment: - PUID=1000 - PGID=1000 - TZ=Europe/London - PASSWORD=password volumes: - /path/to/appdata/config:/config ports: - 8443:8443 restart: unless-stopped ``` ## Parameters Container images are configured using parameters passed at runtime (such as those above). These parameters are separated by a colon and indicate `:` respectively. For example, `-p 8080:80` would expose port `80` from inside the container to be accessible from the host's IP on port `8080` outside the container. | Parameter | Function | | :----: | --- | | `-p 8443` | web gui | | `-e PUID=1000` | for UserID - see below for explanation | | `-e PGID=1000` | for GroupID - see below for explanation | | `-e TZ=Europe/London` | Specify a timezone to use EG Europe/London | | `-e PASSWORD=password` | Specify a web gui password | | `-v /config` | Contains all relevant configuration files. | ## User / Group Identifiers When using volumes (`-v` flags) permissions issues can arise between the host OS and the container, we avoid this issue by allowing you to specify the user `PUID` and group `PGID`. Ensure any volume directories on the host are owned by the same user you specify and any permissions issues will vanish like magic. In this instance `PUID=1000` and `PGID=1000`, to find yours use `id user` as below: ``` $ id username uid=1000(dockeruser) gid=1000(dockergroup) groups=1000(dockergroup) ```   ## Application Setup Access the webui at `http://:8443`. For github integration, drop your ssh key in to `/config/.ssh`. ## Support Info * Shell access whilst the container is running: `docker exec -it code-server /bin/bash` * To monitor the logs of the container in realtime: `docker logs -f code-server` * container version number * `docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' code-server` * image version number * `docker inspect -f '{{ index .Config.Labels "build_version" }}' linuxserver/code-server` ## Updating Info Most of our images are static, versioned, and require an image update and container recreation to update the app inside. With some exceptions (ie. nextcloud, plex), we do not recommend or support updating apps inside the container. Please consult the [Application Setup](#application-setup) section above to see if it is recommended for the image. Below are the instructions for updating containers: ### Via Docker Run/Create * Update the image: `docker pull linuxserver/code-server` * Stop the running container: `docker stop code-server` * Delete the container: `docker rm code-server` * Recreate a new container with the same docker create parameters as instructed above (if mapped correctly to a host folder, your `/config` folder and settings will be preserved) * Start the new container: `docker start code-server` * You can also remove the old dangling images: `docker image prune` ### Via Docker Compose * Update all images: `docker-compose pull` * or update a single image: `docker-compose pull code-server` * Let compose update all containers as necessary: `docker-compose up -d` * or update a single container: `docker-compose up -d code-server` * You can also remove the old dangling images: `docker image prune` ### Via Watchtower auto-updater (especially useful if you don't remember the original parameters) * Pull the latest image at its tag and replace it with the same env variables in one run: ``` docker run --rm \ -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \ containrrr/watchtower \ --run-once code-server ``` * You can also remove the old dangling images: `docker image prune` ## Building locally If you want to make local modifications to these images for development purposes or just to customize the logic: ``` git clone https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-code-server.git cd docker-code-server docker build \ --no-cache \ --pull \ -t linuxserver/code-server:latest . ``` The ARM variants can be built on x86_64 hardware using `multiarch/qemu-user-static` ``` docker run --rm --privileged multiarch/qemu-user-static:register --reset ``` Once registered you can define the dockerfile to use with `-f Dockerfile.aarch64`. ## Versions * **24.06.19:** - Initial Release.
