fixes #11950 https://github.com/coder/coder/issues/11950#issuecomment-1987756088 explains the bug We were also calling into `Unlisten()` and `Close()` while holding the mutex. I don't believe that `Close()` depends on the notification loop being unblocked, but it's hard to be sure, and the safest thing to do is assume it could block. So, I added a unit test that fakes out `pq.Listener` and sends a bunch of notifies every time we call into it to hopefully prevent regression where we hold the mutex while calling into these functions. It also removes the use of a `context.Context` to stop the PubSub -- it must be explicitly `Closed()`. This simplifies a bunch of the logic, and is how we use the pubsub anyway.
Coder enables organizations to set up development environments in their public or private cloud infrastructure. Cloud development environments are defined with Terraform, connected through a secure high-speed Wireguard® tunnel, and are automatically shut down when not in use to save on costs. Coder gives engineering teams the flexibility to use the cloud for workloads that are most beneficial to them.
- Define cloud development environments in Terraform
- EC2 VMs, Kubernetes Pods, Docker Containers, etc.
- Automatically shutdown idle resources to save on costs
- Onboard developers in seconds instead of days
Quickstart
The most convenient way to try Coder is to install it on your local machine and experiment with provisioning cloud development environments using Docker (works on Linux, macOS, and Windows).
# First, install Coder
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
# Start the Coder server (caches data in ~/.cache/coder)
coder server
# Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to create your initial user
# Create a Docker template, and provision a workspace
Install
The easiest way to install Coder is to use our
install script for Linux
and macOS. For Windows, use the latest ..._installer.exe file from GitHub
Releases.
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
You can run the install script with --dry-run to see the commands that will be used to install without executing them. You can modify the installation process by including flags. Run the install script with --help for reference.
See install for additional methods.
Once installed, you can start a production deployment1 with a single command:
# Automatically sets up an external access URL on *.try.coder.app
coder server
# Requires a PostgreSQL instance (version 13 or higher) and external access URL
coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>
1 For production deployments, set up an external PostgreSQL instance for reliability.
Use coder --help to get a list of flags and environment variables. Use our install guides for a full walkthrough.
