Does the Jetbrains Gateway module only support AMD64 hosts?

When we try to use the Jetbrains Gateway module on an ARM64/AARCH64 host, the client hangs and we get this error inf the jetbrains stderr.log file on the worker: /home/coder/.cache/JetBrains/RemoteDev/dist/PY-251.23774.444/bin/remote-dev-server.sh: 80: /home/coder/.cache/JetBrains/RemoteDev/dist/PY-251.23774.444/bin/remote-dev-server: Exec format error It works OK on AMD64. Is this a known issue?

hey @Diranged thanks for bringing this up!

we use JetBrains's data.services.jetbrains.com API to fetch the releases (example query for IntelliJ -> https://data.services.jetbrains.com/products/releases?code=IU&latest=true&type=release) by taking a look at the module code, we only get the download link from the linux field, but they also provide a linuxARM64 that we don't use

we would need to change the module for this, considering it's a relatively low effort change, would you be interested in contributing this feature?

I wouldn't mind contributing - except that it's not clear to me how to write and test our own forked version of a terraform module. Sorry, terraform is not our typical toolkit here (we're more of a CDK/CloudFormation/native K8S shop)... It's not as simple as forking the module to a new public repo and then somehow pointing my main.tf at it, right?

it is! here is an example for the official repo 
module "kasmvnc" {
  source = "git::https://github.com/coder/modules.git//jetbrains-gateway"

  folder         = "/home/coder/example"
  jetbrains_ides = ["CL", "GO", "IU", "PY", "WS"]
  default        = "GO"

  agent_id = coder_agent.dev.id
  count = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
}
module "kasmvnc" {
  source = "git::https://github.com/coder/modules.git//jetbrains-gateway"

  folder         = "/home/coder/example"
  jetbrains_ides = ["CL", "GO", "IU", "PY", "WS"]
  default        = "GO"

  agent_id = coder_agent.dev.id
  count = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
}
replace dev with your coder_agent's resource name

OK - that's great to know. If I get time next week, I'll try to work on that.. I wasn't aware it was that easy to fork these repos and improve them. Thank you.

@Phorcys Mornin... I've started a branch at https://github.com/coder/modules/compare/main...diranged:jetbrains_arm64 that seems like it works (in terms of installing the architecture appropriate code on the nodes). Before I try to polish anything, does this look vaguely correct? Or would your team want it to look different?

hey! this looks good to me there are some things that make it a bit repetitive but i think we need to review the structure of the module itself because that's what's causing problems in the first place could you send me a link to the PR once you create it? even if it's a draft PR at first this way I can subscribe to it
