This means that you have to turn on features now instead of disabling
them like auth and https.

In addition:
- Allow multiple options for auth (only password for now).
- Combine the install docs since they had many commonalities and
- generally simplified them (hopefully not too much).
- Move all example configs into docs/examples.

Quickstart Guide

Visit the releases page and download the latest binary for your operating system.
Unpack the downloaded file then run the binary.
In your browser navigate to localhost:8443.

Usage

Run code-server --help to view available options.

Encrypting traffic with HTTPS

To encrypt the traffic between the browser and server use code-server --cert followed by the path to your certificate. Additionally, you can use certificate keys with --cert-key followed by the path to your key. If you pass --cert without any path code-server will generate a self-signed certificate.

You can use Let's Encrypt to get an SSL certificate for free.

Nginx Reverse Proxy

The trailing slashes are important.

server {
  listen 80;
  listen [::]:80;
  server_name code.example.com code.example.org;
  location /some/path/ { # Or / if hosting at the root.
      proxy_pass http://localhost:8443/;
      proxy_set_header Host $host;
      proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
      proxy_set_header Connection upgrade;
      proxy_set_header Accept-Encoding gzip;
  }
}

Apache Reverse Proxy

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName code.example.com

  RewriteEngine On
  RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} =websocket [NC]
  RewriteRule /(.*)           ws://localhost:8443/$1 [P,L]
  RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} !=websocket [NC]
  RewriteRule /(.*)           http://localhost:8443/$1 [P,L]

  ProxyRequests off

  RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto https
  RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Port 443

  ProxyPass / http://localhost:8443/ nocanon
  ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8443/

</VirtualHost>
