ansible-role-code-server

This role installs and configures the latest or specified version of code-server, supporting v3, v2 and v1.

# Install the latest stable version of the role
ansible-galaxy install -f pallxk.code_server

# Install the latest development version of the role
ansible-galaxy install -f pallxk.code_server,master

To actually install code-server, refer to the section Example Playbook.

Note: The version of the role is irrelevant to the version of code-server you can install. Actually, it installs the latest version of code-server by default. And you can also use a lower-versioned role to install a higher-versioned code-server.
When there are changes to the role, the role version will get updated to the latest version number of code-server.
If you're having problems installing any version of code-server, please report the issue.

Requirements

None.
