In this step, we will install the Nginx web server and set up it as a reverse proxy for the code-server with SSL enabled on top of it. Now you’ve generated the SSL Letsencrypt for securing the code-server installation using the certbot tool. Once it’s complete, your certificates will be located at the ‘/etc/letsencrypt/live//’ directory. certbot certonly -standalone -agree-tos -m -d Once the installation is complete, generate the SSL letsencrypt using the certbot command below. Install the certbot tool using the apt command below. In this step, we will generate the SSL letsencrypt using the certbot tool for securing the code-server. To change the bind address, port, and the password for Visual Code Server, change the default configuration ‘~/.config/code-server/config.yaml’ as you need. The ‘password’ options are used to define your password for the Visual Code Server access, and make sure to use a strong password.The ‘auth’ option as the authentication method for the Visual Code Server, and by default, it’s used the ‘password’ authentication method.The ‘bind-addr’ is an option used to define on which IP address and port the Code Server will be running.You will get something like this configuration. The visual code server password authentication is by default generated to the ‘~/.config/code-server/config.yaml’ file.Ĭheck the visual code server configuration using the following command. Step 2 – Setup Authentication for Visual Code Serverīy default, the visual code server is running with authentication enabled on it.
ss -plntĪs can be seen, the Visual Code Server runs by default on the local IP address ‘127.0.0.1’ with the TCP port ‘8080’.
The Visual Code Server is up and running, check it using the following command.
Once the installation is completed, start the code server service and add it to the system boot.
