Install

install.sh

The easiest way to install Coder is to use our install script for Linux and macOS.

To install, run:

curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh

You can preview what occurs during the install process:

curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --dry-run

You can modify the installation process by including flags. Run the help command for reference:

curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --help

System packages

Coder publishes the following system packages in GitHub releases:

.deb (Debian, Ubuntu)
.rpm (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, SUSE)
.apk (Alpine)

Once installed, you can run Coder as a system service:

 # Set up an external access URL or enable CODER_TUNNEL
sudo vim /etc/coder.d/coder.env
# Use systemd to start Coder now and on reboot
sudo systemctl enable --now coder
# View the logs to ensure a successful start
journalctl -u coder.service -b

docker-compose

Before proceeding, please ensure that you have both Docker and the latest version of Coder installed.

See our docker-compose file for additional information.

Clone the coder repository:

git clone https://github.com/coder/coder.git

Navigate into the coder folder. Coder requires a non-localhost access URL for non-Docker-based examples; if you have a public IP or a domain/reverse proxy, you can provide this value before running docker-compose up to start the service:
```
cd coder
CODER_ACCESS_URL=https://coder.mydomain.com
docker-compose up
```
Otherwise, you can start the service:
```
cd coder
docker-compose up
```
Alternatively, if you would like to start a temporary deployment:
```
docker run --rm -it \
-e CODER_DEV_MODE=true \
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
ghcr.io/coder/coder:v0.5.10
```

Manual

We publish self-contained .zip and .tar.gz archives in GitHub releases. The archives bundle coder binary.

Download the release archive appropriate for your operating system
Unzip the folder you just downloaded, and move the coder executable to a location that's on your PATH
```
# ex. MacOS and Linux
mv coder /usr/local/bin
```
Windows users: see this guide for adding folders to PATH.

Start a Coder server

# Automatically sets up an external access URL on *.try.coder.app
coder server --tunnel

# Requires a PostgreSQL instance and external access URL
coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>

Next steps

Once you've installed and started Coder, see the quickstart for instructions on creating your first template and workspace.
