Set up instance

EC2 on AWS

  • Click Launch Instance from your EC2 dashboard.
  • Select the Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS (HVM), SSD Volume Type
  • Select an appropriate instance size (we recommend t2.medium/large, depending on team size and number of repositories/languages enabled), then Next: Configure Instance Details.
  • Select Next: ... until you get to the Configure Security Group page, then add a Custom TCP Rule rule with port range set to 8080 and source set to "Anywhere".

    Rules with source of 0.0.0.0/0 allow all IP addresses to access your instance. We recommend setting security group rules to allow access from known IP addresses only.

  • Click Launch.
  • You will be prompted to create a key pair.
  • From the dropdown choose "create a new pair", give the key pair a name.
  • Click Download Key Pair and store the file in a safe place.
  • Click Launch Instances.
  • Head to your EC2 dashboard and choose instances from the left panel.
  • In the description of your EC2 instance copy the public DNS (iPv4) address using the copy to clipboard button.
  • Open a terminal on your computer and SSH into your instance:
    ssh -i ${path to key pair} ubuntu@${public address}
    

DigitalOcean

Open your DigitalOcean dashboard to create a new droplet

  • Choose an image - Select the Distributions tab and then choose Ubuntu.
  • Choose a size - We recommend at least 4GB RAM and 2 CPU, more depending on team size and number of repositories/languages enabled.
  • Launch your instance.
  • Open a terminal on your computer and SSH into your instance:
    ssh root@${instance ip}
    

Google Cloud

Pre-requisite: Set up the Google Cloud SDK on your local machine

  • Open your Google Cloud console to create a new VM instance and click Create Instance.
  • Choose an appropriate machine type (we recommend 2 vCPU and 7.5 GB RAM, more depending on team size and number of repositories/languages enabled).
  • Choose Ubuntu 16.04 LTS as your boot disk.
  • Expand the "Management, security, disks, networking, sole tenancy" section, go to the "Networking" tab, then under network tags add "code-server".
  • Create your VM, and take note of its public IP address.
  • Visit "VPC network" in the console and go to "Firewall rules". Create a new firewall rule called "http-8080". Under "Target tags" add "code-server", and under "Protocols and ports" tick "Specified protocols and ports" and "tcp". Beside "tcp", add "8080", then create the rule.
  • Open a terminal on your computer and SSH into your Google Cloud VM:
    gcloud compute ssh --zone ${region} ${instance name}
    

Run code-server

  • Download the latest code-server release from the releases page to the instance, extract the file, then run the code-server binary:
    wget https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases/download/{version}/code-server{version}-linux-x64.tar.gz
    tar -xvzf code-server{version}-linux-x64.tar.gz
    cd code-server{version}-linux-x64
    ./code-server
    
  • Open your browser and visit http://$public_ip:8080/ where $public_ip is your instance's public IP address.
  • For long-term use, set up a systemd service to run code-server.
