Additionally: - Update Node to 20.11.1 - Update documentation - Disable extension signature verification This works around an issue where the Open VSX is not returning the expected zip. Verification is skipped later anyway because @vscode/vsce-sign is missing in the OSS version.

If you're installing code-server via `npm`, you'll need to install additional
|
|
dependencies required to build the native modules used by VS Code. This article
|
|
includes installing instructions based on your operating system.
|
|
|
|
> **WARNING**: Do not use `yarn` to install code-server. Unlike `npm`, it does not respect
|
|
> lockfiles for distributed applications. It will instead use the latest version
|
|
> available at installation time - which might not be the one used for a given
|
|
> code-server release, and [might lead to unexpected behavior](https://github.com/coder/code-server/issues/4927).
|
|
|
|
## Node.js version
|
|
|
|
We use the same major version of Node.js shipped with Code's remote, which is
|
|
currently `20.x`. VS Code also [lists Node.js
|
|
requirements](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/wiki/How-to-Contribute#prerequisites).
|
|
|
|
Using other versions of Node.js [may lead to unexpected
|
|
behavior](https://github.com/coder/code-server/issues/1633).
|
|
|
|
## Ubuntu, Debian
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt-get install -y \
|
|
build-essential \
|
|
pkg-config \
|
|
python3
|
|
npm config set python python3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Proceed to [installing](#installing)
|
|
|
|
## Fedora, CentOS, RHEL
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo yum groupinstall -y 'Development Tools'
|
|
sudo yum config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools # unnecessary on CentOS 7
|
|
sudo yum install -y python2
|
|
npm config set python python2
|
|
```
|

## Alpine
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
apk add alpine-sdk bash libstdc++ libc6-compat
|
|
npm config set python python3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Proceed to [installing](#installing)
|
|

## macOS

```bash

pkg install -y libinotify

## Windows

|
Installing code-server requires all of the [prerequisites for VS Code development](https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/wiki/How-to-Contribute#prerequisites). When installing the C++ compiler tool chain, we recommend using "Option 2: Visual Studio 2019" for best results.
|
|
|
|
Next, install code-server with:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install --global code-server
|
|
code-server
|
|
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A `postinstall.sh` script will attempt to run. Select your terminal (e.g., Git bash) as the default shell for npm run-scripts. If an additional dialog does not appear, run the install command again.
|
|
|
|
If the `code-server` command is not found, you'll need to [add a directory to your PATH](https://www.architectryan.com/2018/03/17/add-to-the-path-on-windows-10/). To find the directory, use the following command:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
npm config get prefix
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For help and additional troubleshooting, see [#1397](https://github.com/coder/code-server/issues/1397).
|
|
|
|
## Installing
|
|
|
|
After adding the dependencies for your OS, install the code-server package globally:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install --global code-server
|
|
code-server
|
|
# Now visit http://127.0.0.1:8080. Your password is in ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

### Issues with Node.js after version upgrades
|
|
|
|
Occasionally, you may run into issues with Node.js.
|
|
|
|
If you install code-server using `npm`, and you upgrade your Node.js
|
|
version, you may need to reinstall code-server to recompile native modules.
|
|
Sometimes, you can get around this by navigating into code-server's `lib/vscode`
|
|
directory and running `npm rebuild` to recompile the modules.
|
|
|
|
A step-by-step example of how you might do this is:
|
|
|
|
1. Install code-server: `brew install code-server`
|
|
2. Navigate into the directory: `cd /usr/local/Cellar/code-server/<version>/libexec/lib/vscode/`
|
|
3. Recompile the native modules: `npm rebuild`
|
|
4. Restart code-server
|
|
|
|
### Debugging install issues with npm
|
|
|
|
To debug installation issues, install with `npm`:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
# Uninstall
|
|
npm uninstall --global code-server > /dev/null 2>&1
|
|
|
|
# Install with logging
|
|
npm install --loglevel verbose --global code-server
|
|
```
