Coder Fly.io Template

This template provisions a code-server instance on fly.io using the codercom/code-server image.

Prerequisites

• flyctl installed.
• Coder already setup and running with coder-cli installed locally.

Getting started

1. Run coder templates init and select this template. Follow the instructions that appear.
2. cd into the directory that was created. (e.g. cd fly-docker-image)
3. Create the new template by running the following command from the fly-docker-image directory:

coder templates create fly-docker-image \
  --variable fly_api_token=$(flyctl auth token) \
  --variable fly_org=personal

If the Coder server is also running as a fly.io app, then instead of setting variable fly_api_token you can also set a fly.io secret with the name FLY_API_TOKEN

flyctl secrets set FLY_API_TOKEN=$(flyctl auth token) --app <your-coder-app-name>

Read our blog post to learn more about how to deploy Coder on fly.io.

4. Navigate to the Coder dashboard and create a new workspace using the template.

This is all. You should now have a code-server instance running on fly.io.
