feat(cli): add --id parameter to templates init command (#7116)
This PR makes the following changes:

- Adds an --id parameter to coder templates init so that you can non-interactively initialize a specific example template by ID (e.g. folder name)
- Updates develop.sh and lima/coder.yaml to use this parameter to select the docker example template.

Run Coder in Lima

This provides a sample Lima configuration for Coder. This lets you quickly test out Coder in a self-contained environment.

Prerequisite: You must have lima installed and available to use this.

Getting Started

  • Run limactl start --name=coder https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coder/coder/main/examples/lima/coder.yaml
  • You can use the configuration as-is, or edit it to your liking.

This will:

  • Start an Ubuntu 22.04 VM
  • Install Docker and Terraform from the official repos
  • Install Coder using the installation script
  • Generates an initial user account admin@coder.com with a randomly generated password (stored in the VM under /home/${USER}.linux/.config/coderv2/password)
  • Initializes a sample Docker template for creating workspaces

Once this completes, you can visit http://localhost:3000 and start creating workspaces!

Alternatively, enter the VM with limactl shell coder and run coder templates init to start creating your own templates!
