# Google Cloud Platform
|
||
|
|
||
|
In this guide, you will learn how to deploy the Coder control plane instance and
|
||
|
your first template.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Requirements
|
||
|
|
||
|
This guide assumes you have `roles/compute.instanceAdmin.v1` access to your
|
||
|
Google Cloud Platform project.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Launch a Coder instance from the Google Cloud Marketplace
|
||
|
|
||
|
We publish an Ubuntu 22.04 VM image with Coder and Docker pre-installed. Search
|
||
|
for `Coder v2` in the GCP Marketplace or
|
||
|
[use direct link](https://console.cloud.google.com/marketplace/product/coder-enterprise-market-public/coder-v2).
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
Be sure to keep the default firewall options checked so you can connect over
|
||
|
HTTP, HTTPS, and SSH.
|
||
|
|
||
|
We recommend keeping the default instance type (`e2-standard-4`, 4 cores and 16
|
||
|
GB memory) if you plan on provisioning Docker containers as workspaces on this
|
||
|
VM instance. Keep in mind this platforms is intended for proof-of-concept
|
||
|
deployments and you should adjust your infrastructure when preparing for
|
||
|
production use. See: [Scaling Coder](../admin/scale.md)

Your browser does not support the video tag.

|
||
|
|
||
|
Be sure to add a keypair so that you can connect over SSH to further
|
||
|
[configure Coder](../admin/configure.md).
|
||
|
|
||
|
After launching the instance, wait 30 seconds and navigate to the public IPv4
|
||
|
address. You should be redirected to a public tunnel URL.
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
That's all! Use the UI to create your first user, template, and workspace. We
|
||
|
recommend starting with a Docker template since the instance has Docker
|
||
|
pre-installed.

|
## Configuring Coder server
|
||
|
|
||
|
Coder is primarily configured by server-side flags and environment variables.
|
||
|
Given you created or added key-pairs when launching the instance, you can
|
||
|
[configure your Coder deployment](../admin/configure.md) by logging in via SSH
|
||
|
or using the console:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```shell
|
||
|
ssh ubuntu@<gcp-public-IPv4>
|
||
|
sudo vim /etc/coder.d/coder.env # edit config
|
||
|
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
|
||
|
sudo systemctl restart coder # restart Coder
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Give developers VM workspaces (optional)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Instead of running containers on the Coder instance, you can offer developers
|
||
|
full VM instances with the
|
||
|
[gcp-linux](https://github.com/coder/coder/tree/main/examples/templates/gcp-linux)
|
||
|
template.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Before you can use this template, you must authorize Coder to create VM
|
||
|
instances in your GCP project. Follow the instructions in the
|
||
|
[gcp-linux template README](https://github.com/coder/coder/tree/main/examples/templates/gcp-linux#authentication)
|
||
|
to set up authentication.
