How do I use code-server?

Apps 114 views Markdown
  1. In the panel, open My servers and click your server.
  2. On the Overview tab, wait for the App row to say "code-server is ready". The page refreshes itself.
  3. Open the link in the Panel address row and enter the password from the Password row.

Working

  • Your projects live in the /home/app/proje folder. Open a terminal from Terminal, New Terminal and bring in your project with git clone.
  • The terminal opens as the unprivileged app user. To install packages, SSH to the server as root.
  • Install extensions from Extensions in the left menu.

Changing the password

Change the password line in /home/app/.config/code-server/config.yaml and run systemctl restart code-server as root.

Good to know

Anyone who knows your password can run commands on the server, so do not share it. Only 80, 443 and 22 for SSH are open to the outside.

No server yet? Order a server with code-server installed: you choose the size and pay for what you choose.
