# Deploy on AWS
|
||||
|
||||
This tutorial shows you how to deploy `code-server` on an EC2 AWS instance.
|
||||
|
||||
If you're just starting out, we recommend [installing code-server locally](../../self-hosted/index.md). It takes only a few minutes and lets you try out all of the features. You can also try out the IDE on a container hosted [by Coder](http://coder.com/signup)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Deploy to EC2
|
||||
|
||||
### Use the AWS wizard
|
||||
|
||||
- Click **Launch Instance** from your [EC2 dashboard](https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/v2/home).
|
||||
- Select the Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS (HVM), SSD Volume Type (`ami-0f9cf087c1f27d9b1)` at this time of writing)
|
||||
- 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 the default **HTTP** rule (port range "80", source "0.0.0.0/0, ::/0")
|
||||
> Rules with source of 0.0.0.0/0 allow all IP addresses to access your instance. We recommend setting [security group rules](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/using-network-security.html?icmpid=docs_ec2_console) to allow access from known IP addresses only.
|
||||
- Click **Launch**
|
||||
- You will be prompted to create a key pair
|
||||
> A key pair consists of a public key that AWS stores, and a private key file that you store. Together, they allow you to connect to your instance securely. For Windows AMIs, the private key file is required to obtain the password used to log into your instance. For Linux AMIs, the private key file allows you to securely SSH into your instance.
|
||||
- From the dropdown choose "create a new pair", give the key pair a name
|
||||
- Click **Download Key Pair**
|
||||
> This is necessary before you proceed. A `.pem` file will be downloaded. make sure you store is in a safe location because it can't be retrieved once we move on.
|
||||
- Finally, click **Launch Instances**
|
||||
---
|
||||
### SSH Into EC2 Instance
|
||||
- First head to your [EC2 dashboard](https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2/v2/home) 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 use the following command to SSH into your EC2 instance
|
||||
```
|
||||
ssh i "path/to/your/keypair.pem" ubuntu@(paste the public DNS here)
|
||||
```
|
||||
>example: `ssh -i "/Users/John/Downloads/TestInstance.pem" ubuntu@ec2-3-45-678-910.compute-1.amazonaws.co`
|
||||
- You should see a prompt for your EC2 instance like so<img src="../../assets/aws_ubuntu.png">
|
||||
- At this point it is time to download the `code-server` binary. We will of course want the linux version. Make sure you copy the link for the latest linux version on our [releases page](https://github.com/codercom/code-server/releases)
|
||||
- With the URL in the clipboard, run:
|
||||
```
|
||||
wget https://github.com/codercom/code-server/releases/download/0.1.4/code-server-linux
|
||||
```
|
||||
- If you run into any permission errors, make the binary executable by running:
|
||||
```
|
||||
chmod +x code-server-linux
|
||||
```
|
||||
> To ensure the connection between you and your server is encrypted view our guide on [securing your setup](../security/ssl.md)
|
||||
- Finally, run
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo ./code-server-linux -p 80
|
||||
```
|
||||
- When you visit the public IP for your AWS instance, you will be greeted with this page. Code-server is using a self-signed SSL certificate for easy setup. To proceed to the IDE, click **"Advanced"**<img src ="../../assets/chrome_warning.png">
|
||||
- Then click **"proceed anyway"**<img src="../../assets/chrome_confirm.png">
|
||||
|
||||
> For instructions on how to keep the server running after you end your SSH session please checkout [how to use systemd](https://www.linode.com/docs/quick-answers/linux/start-service-at-boot/) to start linux based services if they are killed
|
||||
|
||||
> The `-p 80` flag is necessary in order to make the IDE accessible from the public IP of your instance (also available from the description in the instances page.

# Generate a self-signed certificate 🔒
|
||||
|
||||
code-server has the ability to secure your connection between client and server using SSL/TSL certificates. By default, the server will start with an unencrypted connection. We recommend Self-signed TLS/SSL certificates for personal of code-server or within an organization.
|
||||
|
||||
This guide will show you how to create a self-signed certificate and start code-server using your certificate/key.
|
||||
|
||||
## TLS / HTTPS
|
||||
|
||||
You can specify any location that you want to save the certificate and key. In this example, we will navigate to the root directory, create a folder called `certs` and cd into it.
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
mkdir ~/certs && cd ~/certs
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't already have a TLS certificate and key, you can generate them with the command below. They will be placed in `~/certs`
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout ~/certs/MyKey.key -out ~/certs/MyCertificate.crt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You will be prompted to add some identifying information about your organization
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
|
||||
into your certificate request.
|
||||
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
|
||||
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
|
||||
For some fields there will be a default value,
|
||||
If you enter '.', the field will be left blank.
|
||||
-----
|
||||
Country Name (2 letter code) [AU]:US
|
||||
State or Province Name (full name) [Some-State]:TX
|
||||
Locality Name (eg, city) []:Austin
|
||||
Organization Name (eg, company) [Coder Technologies]:Coder
|
||||
Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []:Docs
|
||||
Common Name (e.g. server FQDN or YOUR name) []:hostname.example.com
|
||||
Email Address []:admin@example.com
|
||||
```
|
||||
>If you already have a TLS certificate and key, you can simply reference them in the `--cert` and `--cert-key` flags when launching code-server
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Starting code-server with certificate and key
|
||||
|
||||
1. At the end of the path to your binary, add the following flags followed by the path to your certificate and key like so. Then press enter to run code-server.
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
./code-server --cert=~/certs/MyCertificate.crt --cert-key=~/certs/MyKey.key
|
||||
```
|
||||
2. After that you will be running a secure code-server.
|
||||
|
||||
> You will know your connection is secure if the lines `WARN No certificate specified. This could be insecure. WARN Documentation on securing your setup: https://coder.com/docs` no longer appear.
|
||||
|
||||
## Other options
|
||||
|
||||
For larger organizations you may wish to rely on a Certificate Authority as opposed to a self-signed certificate. For more information on generating free and open certificates for your site, please check out EFF's [certbot](https://certbot.eff.org/). Certbot is a cli to generate certificates using [LetsEncrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/).

# Getting Started
|
||||
|
||||
[code-server](https://coder.com) is used by developers at Azure, Google, Reddit, and more to give them access to VS Code in the browser.
|
||||
|
||||
## Quickstart guide
|
||||
|
||||
> NOTE: If you get stuck or need help, [file an issue](https://github.com/codercom/code-server/issues/new?&title=Improve+self-hosted+quickstart+guide), [tweet (@coderhq)](https://twitter.com/coderhq) or [email](mailto:support@coder.com?subject=Self-hosted%20quickstart%20guide).
|
||||
|
||||
This document pertains to Coder specific implementations of VS Code. For documentation on how to use VS Code itself, please refer to the official [documentation for VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs)
|
||||
|
||||
It takes just a few minutes to get your own self-hosted server running. If you've got a machine running macOS, Windows, or Linux, you're ready to start the binary which listens on port `8080` by default.
|
||||
|
||||
<!--
|
||||
DO NOT CHANGE THIS TO A CODEBLOCK.
|
||||
We want line breaks for readability, but backslashes to escape them do not work cross-platform.
|
||||
This uses line breaks that are rendered but not copy-pasted to the clipboard.
|
||||
-->
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
1. Visit [the releases](https://github.com/codercom/code-server/releases) page and download the latest cli for your operating system
|
||||
2. Double click the executable to run in the current directory
|
||||
3. Copy the password that appears in the cli<img src="../assets/cli.png">
|
||||
4. In your browser navigate to `localhost:8080`
|
||||
5. Paste the password from the cli into the login window<img src="../assets/server-password-modal.png">
|
||||
> NOTE: Be careful with your password as sharing it will grant those users access to your server's file system

|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
$ code-server [WORKDIR]
|
||||
|
||||
ARGUMENTS
|
||||

||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Data directory
|
||||
Use `code-server -d (path/to/directory)` or `code-server --data-dir=(path/to/directory)`, excluding the parentheses to specify the root folder that VS Code will start in
|
||||
|
||||
### Host
|
||||
By default, code-server will use `0.0.0.0` as it's address. This can be changed by using `code-server -h` or `code-server --host=` followed by the address you want to use.
|
||||
> Example: `code-server -h 127.0.0.1`
|
||||
|
||||
### Open
|
||||
You can have the server automatically open the VS Code in your browser on startup by using the `code server -o` or `code-server --open` flags
|
||||
|
||||
### Port
|
||||
By default, code-server will use `8080` as it's port. This can be changed by using `code-server -p` or `code-server --port=` followed by the port you want to use.
|
||||
> Example: `code-server -p 9000`
|
||||
|
||||
### Cert and Cert Key
|
||||
To encrypt the traffic between the browser and server use `code-server --cert=` followed by the path to your `.cer` file. Additionally, you can use certificate keys with `code-server --cert-key` followed by the path to your `.key` file.
|
||||
> Example (certificate and key): `code-server --cert /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.cer --cert-key /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.key`
|
||||
|
||||
> To ensure the connection between you and your server is encrypted view our guide on [securing your setup](../security/ssl.md)
|
||||
|
||||
### Help
|
||||
Use `code-server -h` or `code-server --help` to view the usage for the cli. This is also shown at the beginning of this section.
