Install

Using packages:

pkg install code-server

Or using ports:

cd /usr/ports/www/code-server
make install clean

Run

/usr/local/bin/code-serve

Or run as a service via the rc.d script that gets installed:

service code_server enable  # Enable at start up
service code_server start   # Start service
service code_server stop    # Stop service
service code_server restart # Restart service
service code_server status  # Status of service

NOTE: The file permissions one has when using vscode from a web browser is dependant on the user/group you choose to run this service. It defaults to nobody for security reasons but you will probably want to specify a different user with the appropriate permissions for your use case in /etc/rc.conf like:

code_server_user="myuser"  # default is "nobody"
code_server_group="myuser" # default is "nobody"

Other available variables to use in in /etc/rc.conf when using as a service:

  • code_server_config_file (filepath): Set to /var/code-server/nobody/config.yaml by default. Set to the full filepath of the config file.
  • code_server_user_data_dir (path): Set to /var/code-server/nobody/user-data by default. Set to the directory path to use for user data.
  • code_server_extensions_dir (path): Set to /var/code-server/nobody/extensions by default. Set to the directory path to use for extensions.
  • code_server_service_url (url): Set to https://open-vsx.org/vscode/gallery by default. Set to the service url of an extensions marketplace.
  • code_server_item_url (url): Set to https://open-vsx.org/vscode/item by default. Set to the item url of an extensions marketplace.

Access vscode from browser

http://localhost:8080

IP address, port, and more can be set in config.yaml
