Make flags additive and clean up docs
This means that you have to turn on features now instead of disabling them like auth and https. In addition: - Allow multiple options for auth (only password for now). - Combine the install docs since they had many commonalities and - generally simplified them (hopefully not too much). - Move all example configs into docs/examples.

# Quickstart Guide
|
||||
1. Visit the [releases page](https://github.com/cdr/code-server/releases) and
|
||||
download the latest binary for your operating system.
|
||||
2. Unpack the downloaded file then run the binary.
|
||||
3. In your browser navigate to `localhost:8443`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
Run `code-server --help` to view available options.
|
||||
|
||||
### Encrypting traffic with HTTPS
|
||||
To encrypt the traffic between the browser and server use `code-server --cert`
|
||||
followed by the path to your certificate. Additionally, you can use certificate
|
||||
keys with `--cert-key` followed by the path to your key. If you pass `--cert`
|
||||
without any path code-server will generate a self-signed certificate.
|
||||
|
||||
You can use [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/) to get an SSL certificate
|
||||
for free.
|
||||
|
||||
### Nginx Reverse Proxy
|
||||
The trailing slashes are important.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
server {
|
||||
listen 80;
|
||||
listen [::]:80;
|
||||
server_name code.example.com code.example.org;
|
||||
location /some/path/ { # Or / if hosting at the root.
|
||||
proxy_pass http://localhost:8443/;
|
||||
proxy_set_header Host $host;
|
||||
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
|
||||
proxy_set_header Connection upgrade;
|
||||
proxy_set_header Accept-Encoding gzip;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Apache Reverse Proxy
|
||||
```
|
||||
<VirtualHost *:80>
|
||||
ServerName code.example.com
|
||||
|
||||
RewriteEngine On
|
||||
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} =websocket [NC]
|
||||
RewriteRule /(.*) ws://localhost:8443/$1 [P,L]
|
||||
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} !=websocket [NC]
|
||||
RewriteRule /(.*) http://localhost:8443/$1 [P,L]
|
||||
|
||||
ProxyRequests off
|
||||
|
||||
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto https
|
||||
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Port 443
|
||||
|
||||
ProxyPass / http://localhost:8443/ nocanon
|
||||
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:8443/
|
||||
|
||||
</VirtualHost>
|
||||
```
