Add separate function for VS Code arguments (#4599)
The problem before was that the pop() caused the open in existing
instance functionality to break because the arguments no longer
contained the file.

We could simply remove the pop() but since `workspace` and `folder` are
not CLI arguments I think it makes sense to handle them in a separate
function which can be called at the point where they are needed.  This
also lets us de-duplicate some logic since we create these arguments in
two spots and lets us skip this logic when we do not need it.

The pop() is still avoided because manipulating a passed-in object
in-place seems like a risky move.  If we really need to do this we
should copy the positional argument array instead.

Highlights

  • Code on any device with a consistent development environment
  • Use cloud servers to speed up tests, compilations, downloads, and more
  • Preserve battery life when you're on the go; all intensive tasks run on your server
🔔 code-server is a free browser-based IDE while Coder, is our enterprise developer workspace platform. For more information, visit Coder.com

Requirements

See requirements for minimum specs, as well as instructions on how to set up a Google VM on which you can install code-server.

TL;DR: Linux machine with WebSockets enabled, 1 GB RAM, and 2 CPUs

Getting started

There are three ways to get started:

  1. Using the install script, which automates most of the process. The script uses the system package manager if possible.
  2. Manually installing code-server
  3. Using our one-click buttons and guides to deploy code-server to a cloud provider

If you use the install script, you can preview what occurs during the install process:

curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh -s -- --dry-run

To install, run:

curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh

When done, the install script prints out instructions for running and starting code-server.

We also have an in-depth setup and configuration guide.
