|
||
🎯 __Goals:__
|
||
- Install code-server
|
||
- Mount folders into VS Code
|
||
- Expose code-server with Swag
|
||
::
|
||
|
||
[code-server](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-code-server) is a container that lets you access [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/) via a web UI in a Linux environment. It's literally VS Code and your projects in your pocket, available anywhere.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Installation
|
||
---
|
||
::alert{type="info"}
|
||
:::list{type="info"}
|
||
- For this setup, we’ll use the [image maintained by LinuxServer.io](https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-code-server/).
|
||
:::
|
||
::
|
||
|
||
Folder structure
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
root
|
||
├── docker
|
||
│ └── code-server
|
||
│ └── config
|
||
└── #any folder you want to mount in VS Code
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Open Dockge, click on `compose`, name the stack `code-server`, and paste the following:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
---
|
||
services:
|
||
code-server:
|
||
image: lscr.io/linuxserver/code-server:latest
|
||
container_name: code-server
|
||
environment:
|
||
- PUID=${PUID}
|
||
- PGID=${GUID}
|
||
- TZ=Etc/UTC
|
||
- HASHED_PASSWORD=${PW}
|
||
volumes:
|
||
- /docker/code-server/config:/config
|
||
# add folders to mount in VS Code
|
||
# - /path/to/folder:/folder
|
||
ports:
|
||
- 8443:8443
|
||
restart: unless-stopped
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
::alert{type="success"}
|
||
✨ Add the Watchtower label to each container to automate updates
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
services:
|
||
code-server:
|
||
#...
|
||
labels:
|
||
- com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true
|
||
::
|
||
|
||
Choose a password and generate its hash:
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
echo -n "yourpassword" | npx argon2-cli -e
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Save the result carefully. Find your PUID and GUID with:
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
id yourusername
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Fill in the `.env` file with the values you found, for example:
|
||
|
||
```properties
|
||
PW='$argon2i$v=19$m=4096,t=3,p=1$wST5QhBgk2lu1ih4DMuxvg$LS1alrVdIWtvZHwnzCM1DUGg+5DTO3Dt1d5v9XtLws4'
|
||
PUID=1000
|
||
GUID=1000
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
::alert{type="warning"}
|
||
:::list{type="warning"}
|
||
- __Note:__ Make sure to wrap the hash in single quotes `'`
|
||
:::
|
||
::
|
||
|
||
Deploy the container and go to `http://yourserverip:8443`. Voilà, your code-server instance is up and running in the browser!
|
||
|
||
::alert{type="danger"}
|
||
:::list{type="danger"}
|
||
- __If it fails:__ check your firewall rules.
|

|
||
## Mount Folders
|
||
---
|
||
You can mount folders into VS Code by adding the relevant volumes in `compose.yaml` (or via Dockge), then redeploy the container.
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
services:
|
||
code-server:
|
||
#...
|
||
volumes:
|
||
- /path/to/folder:/folder
|
||
```
|
||
Once inside VS Code, you'll have access to the mounted folder.
|
||
|
||
## Expose code-server with Swag
|
||
---
|
||
The whole point of such a solution is to access it remotely from any device. To do this, we’ll expose code-server via Swag.
|
||
|
||
::alert{type="info"}
|
||
:::list{type="info"}
|
||
- __Preliminary:__ We assume you’ve created a subdomain like `code.yourdomain.com` with a `CNAME` pointing to `yourdomain.com` in your [DNS zone](/general/networking/dns), and—unless you're using [Cloudflare Zero Trust](/serveex/security/cloudflare)—that you’ve forwarded port `443` from your router to port `443` on your server using [NAT rules](/general/networking/nat).
|
||
:::
|
||
::
|
||
|
||
In Dockge, go to the SWAG stack and edit the compose file to add code-server’s network:
|
||
|
||
```yaml
|
||
services:
|
||
swag:
|
||
container_name: # ...
|
||
# ...
|
||
networks: # Connects the container to a custom network
|
||
# ...
|
||
- code-server # Name of the network defined in the stack
|
||
|
||
networks: # Defines the custom network
|
||
# ...
|
||
code-server: # Name of the network defined in the stack
|
||
name: code-serveur # Actual name of the external network
|
||
external: true # Indicates it’s an external network
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
::alert{type="info"}
|
||
:::list{type="info"}
|
||
- We assume the network name is `code-server_default`. You can verify that the connection works by visiting the SWAG dashboard at http://yourserverip:81.
|
||
:::
|
||
::
|
||
|
||
Redeploy the stack by clicking “deploy” and wait until SWAG is fully operational.
|
||
|
||
Inside the Swag config folders, create the file `code.subdomain.conf`.
|
||
|
||
::alert{type="success"}
|
||
✨ __Tip:__ You can use [File Browser](/serveex/files/file-browser) to navigate and edit your files instead of using terminal commands.
|
||
::
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
sudo vi /docker/swag/config/nginx/proxy-confs/code.subdomain.conf
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Enter insert mode with `i` and paste the following configuration:
|
||
|
||
```nginx
|
||
## Version 2023/12/19
|
||
|
||
server {
|
||
listen 443 ssl;
|
||
listen [::]:443 ssl;
|
||
|
||
server_name code.*;
|
||
|
||
include /config/nginx/ssl.conf;
|
||
|
||
client_max_body_size 0;
|
||
|
||
#if ($lan-ip = yes) { set $geo-whitelist yes; }
|
||
#if ($geo-whitelist = no) { return 404; }
|
||
if ($geo-blacklist = no) { return 404; }
|
||
|
||
# enable for ldap auth (requires ldap-location.conf in the location block)
|
||
#include /config/nginx/ldap-server.conf;
|
||
|
||
# enable for Authelia (requires authelia-location.conf in the location block)
|
||
#include /config/nginx/authelia-server.conf;
|
||
|
||
# enable for Authentik (requires authentik-location.conf in the location block)
|
||
#include /config/nginx/authentik-server.conf;
|
||
|
||
location / {
|
||
# enable the next two lines for http auth
|
||
#auth_basic "Restricted";
|
||
#auth_basic_user_file /config/nginx/.htpasswd;
|
||
|
||
# enable for ldap auth (requires ldap-server.conf in the server block)
|
||
#include /config/nginx/ldap-location.conf;
|
||
|
||
# enable for Authelia (requires authelia-server.conf in the server block)
|
||
#include /config/nginx/authelia-location.conf;
|
||
|
||
# enable for Authentik (requires authentik-server.conf in the server block)
|
||
#include /config/nginx/authentik-location.conf;
|
||
|
||
include /config/nginx/proxy.conf;
|
||
include /config/nginx/resolver.conf;
|
||
set $upstream_app code-server;
|
||
set $upstream_port 8443;
|
||
set $upstream_proto http;
|
||
proxy_pass $upstream_proto://$upstream_app:$upstream_port;
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Press `Esc`, then save and exit by typing `:x` and pressing `Enter`.
|
||
|
||
That’s it — code-server is now exposed!
|
||
|
||
::alert{type="success"}
|
||
✨ __Tip:__ You can protect this app with Authentik by opening `code.subdomain.conf` and uncommenting the lines `include /config/nginx/authentik-server.conf;` and `include /config/nginx/authentik-location.conf;`. Don’t forget to [create an application and provider in Authentik](/serveex/security/authentik#protecting-an-app-via-reverse-proxy).
