Spike Curtis f6bf6c6ec4 fix!: use names not IDs for agent SSH key seed (#17258)
Changes the SSH host key seeding to use the owner username, workspace name, and agent name. This prevents SSH from complaining about a mismatched host key if you use Coder Desktop to connect, and delete and recreate your workspace with the same name. Previously this would generate a different key because the workspace ID changed.

We also include the owner's username in anticipation of using Coder Desktop to access shared workspaces (or as a superuser) down the road, so that workspaces with the same name owned by different users will not have the same key.

This change is **BREAKING** in a limited sense that early access users of Coder Desktop will see their SSH clients complain about host keys changing the first time each workspace is rebuilt with this code. It can be resolved by clearing your `.ssh/known_hosts` file of the Coder workspaces you access this way.

Coder enables organizations to set up development environments in their public or private cloud infrastructure. Cloud development environments are defined with Terraform, connected through a secure high-speed Wireguard® tunnel, and automatically shut down when not used to save on costs. Coder gives engineering teams the flexibility to use the cloud for workloads most beneficial to them.

  • Define cloud development environments in Terraform
    • EC2 VMs, Kubernetes Pods, Docker Containers, etc.
  • Automatically shutdown idle resources to save on costs
  • Onboard developers in seconds instead of days

Quickstart

The most convenient way to try Coder is to install it on your local machine and experiment with provisioning cloud development environments using Docker (works on Linux, macOS, and Windows).

# First, install Coder
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh

# Start the Coder server (caches data in ~/.cache/coder)
coder server

# Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to create your initial user,
# create a Docker template and provision a workspace

Install

The easiest way to install Coder is to use our install script for Linux and macOS. For Windows, use the latest ..._installer.exe file from GitHub Releases.

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

You can run the install script with --dry-run to see the commands that will be used to install without executing them. Run the install script with --help for additional flags.

See install for additional methods.

Once installed, you can start a production deployment with a single command:

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

# Requires a PostgreSQL instance (version 13 or higher) and external access URL
coder server --postgres-url <url> --access-url <url>

Use coder --help to get a list of flags and environment variables. Use our install guides for a complete walkthrough.
