PR Review help
Hi, I've been waiting for a review on this PR for about 5 days now and haven't received any response from the team or any indication on how long it may take. Could someone please give guidance on this? https://github.com/coder/registry/pull/254/files
VS Code Desktop pre-install extensions
Hi everyone! I have Coder installed on a on-premises redhat VM and I'm currently trying to configure pre-installed extensios in a Docker Container starter template.
I followed this guide here to add the extensions .vsix files to the image and install it in the startup script https://coder.com/docs/user-guides/workspace-access/vscode#adding-extensions-to-custom-images.
However, by doing that only the code-server (web browser) had the extensions installed, the VS Code Desktop option starts without them....
Solution:
Hi, thank you both for the response! I will check the possibility to allow in the firewall the installation of the VS Code Web since it may be exactly what we want. The VS Code Web installs the extensions from the microsoft marketplace or from the openvsx?
Also, I managed to make it work by using the
code-server --install-extension ... --extensions-dir in the image and copying the installed extensions folder to the expected location on both the desktop and code-server. Although this is not the intended way to use, it may be useful to validate. Just commenting here cause I didn't find much about this topic that was already posted....Embedding Coder into another web app
Hi! I'm looking into integrating Coder into another application. I've seen https://github.com/pad-ws/pad.ws, which apparently just iframes Coder. For auth, I believe both their main app and Coder are configured to use the same instance of Keycloak, so when you log in into their main app, you are automatically logged in into their Coder instance.
Are there any other simpler approaches that do not require any additional component like Keycloak?...
I've doubt
I'm working on this issue (https://github.com/coder/registry/issues/238), and @bpmct said to modify coder/agentAPI if needed to support Sourcegraph Amp. Suppose I change some parts of the code; how can I initiate it with my module? I understand that I can change the source path, but I also need the script files, and I don’t have access to the AgentAPI script files.
Dockerfile + registry auth (gitlab): 403
In my templates i can pull images from my private gitlab instance in "docker_service" via "image". This is achieved by using "docker" provider with "registry_auth". Now i tried to use the same image but from a Dockerfile. This results in 403 (Forbidden). I added various combinations of the available options to "docker_image" -> "build" -> "auth_config" but i can't get it working. Any idea how to get this working?
Template default settings?
Can i set some defaults for templates somewhere, like "Default autostop (hours)" and "Activity bump (hours)"?
Solution:
@daschatten for the
coderd Terraform provider, you can use the coder_template resource's default_ttl_ms and activity_bump_ms fieldsI can’t see the task Tasks UI
I am running the latest version of Coder (v2.24.2), but when I start the Coder server, I can’t see the Tasks UI.

Internal error fetching authenticated Github user organizations
I am unable to use coder with github auth. I went to my github organization then under Developer settings -> OAuth Apps created a new app. I verified coder is starting with the client id and secret.
Unable to make direct connection between two NATs, even with STUN
Hi our coder is hosted in an on-prem k8s cluster (one subnet), and the client devices are sitting on another subnet.
I have installed an internal STUN server as well.
We are having trouble establishing direct connection, I suspect due to restrictive firewall rule.
so I start with something simple: create a pod in the same k8s cluster, and do
coder login to act as a client....Auto-Clone GitHub Repo on Workspace Creation (with GitHub Auth)

Currently the Go SMTP library that coder uses only accept email without the name.
So...

Seeking feedback on GCP VM setup for Coder
Hey all, I’m working on a proof of concept for a dev environment using Coder with ephemeral GCP VMs and would love to gut-check some assumptions and get feedback on a few sticking points.
Setup Overview:
- I'm using Packer to build a custom Ubuntu image with all base OS-level dependencies preinstalled (Docker, Python 3.11, Task, etc.)
- The metadata startup script creates the user and installs the Coder agent...
