## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Please [install Coder](./install.md) before proceeding with the steps outlined in this article.
|
|
|
|
## Creating your first template and workspace
|
|
|
|
In a new terminal window, run the following to copy a sample template:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
coder templates init
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Follow the CLI instructions to select an example that you can modify for your
|
|
specific usage (e.g., a template to **Develop code-server in Docker**):
|
|
|
|
1. Navigate into your new templates folder and create your first template using
|
|
the provided command (e.g., `cd ./docker-code-server && coder templates create`)
|
|
|
|
1. Answer the CLI prompts; when done, confirm that you want to create your template.
|
|
|
|
Create a workspace using your template:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
coder create --template="yourTemplate" <workspaceName>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Connect to your workspace via SSH:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
coder ssh <workspaceName>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also access your workspace using the **access URL** you provided when
|
|
deploying Coder (if you're using a temporary deployment and you opted to use
|
|
Coder's tunnel, use the access URL you were provided). Log in with the admin
|
|
credentials provided to you by Coder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Modifying templates
|
|
|
|
You can edit the Terraform template as follows:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
coder templates init
|
|
cd gcp-linux # modify this line as needed to access the template
|
|
vim main.tf
|
|
coder templates update gcp-linux # updates the template
|
|
```
|
