Install

This document demonstrates how to install code-server on various distros and operating systems.

The steps in this document are exactly what the install script does.

We recommend using the install script if possible. You can run the install script with the --dry-run flag for a dry run which will print out the commands it will run to install code-server but not run anything. That way you can verify the script is functioning as intended before installing.

Debian, Ubuntu

curl -fOL https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/v3.3.1/code-server_3.3.1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i code-server_3.3.1_amd64.deb
systemctl --user enable --now code-server
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml

Fedora, CentOS, Red Hat, SUSE

curl -fOL https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/v3.3.1/code-server-3.3.1-amd64.rpm
sudo rpm -i code-server-3.3.1-amd64.rpm
systemctl --user enable --now code-server
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml

Arch Linux

# Installs code-server from the AUR using yay.
yay -S code-server
systemctl --user enable --now code-server
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml
# Installs code-server from the AUR with plain makepkg.
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/code-server.git
cd code-server
makepkg -si
systemctl --user enable --now code-server
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml

yarn, npm

We recommend installing with yarn or npm if we don't have a precompiled release for your machine's platform or architecture or your glibc < v2.19.

note: Installing via yarn or npm builds native modules on install and so requires C dependencies. See ./doc/npm.md for installing these dependencies.

You will need at least node v12 installed. See #1633.

yarn global add code-server
# Or: npm install -g code-server
code-server
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml

macOS

brew install code-server
brew services start code-server
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml

Static Releases

We publish self contained .tar.gz archives for every release on github. They bundle the node binary and node_modules.

  1. Download the latest release archive for your system from github.
  2. Unpack the release.
  3. You can run code-server by executing ./bin/code-server.

Add the code-server bin directory to your $PATH to easily execute code-server without the full path every time.

Here is an example script for installing and using a static code-server release on Linux:

curl -fL https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/v3.3.1/code-server-3.3.1-linux-amd64.tar.gz \
  | sudo tar -C /usr/local/lib -xz
sudo mv /usr/local/lib/code-server-3.3.1-linux-amd64 /usr/local/lib/code-server-3.3.1
PATH="/usr/local/lib/code-server-3.3.1/bin:$PATH"
code-server
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml
