The group-creation documentation is also missing

or is it not available via API?

https://github.com/coder/coder/pull/7021 fixed, just a typo

Thank you!

while users are a global concept

well, my api wrapper just does a lookup now ```python @property def _user(self) -> CoderUser: if self._cur_user is None: self._cur_user = CoderUser.parse_obj(self._get(self._session, "users/me")) return self._cur_user @property def _org_id(self) -> uuid.UUID: return self._user.organization_ids[0] ``` .. works for me 🤷

If I want to add a user to the group I need to patch the whole group object with all members I intent to have in it - is this right?

We re having a hard time installing Nix

ok, this does not look like wahts in the documentation for the PATCH request

Hi. Is it possible to mount docker.sock from the host K8s containerd socket instead of a privileged sidecar to build new containers in the workspace?

I do not recommend to do any of this because you bypass all resource allocation mechanisms of k8s with that and open a way to instability.

We have had success with rotless buildx instances in k8s (they don't need to run in privileged containers) and kaniko (which might not fit your usecase)

for buildx rootless we only needed to disable the default apparmor policies for the container (for a bare-metal kubeadm deployed k8s on debian stable machines)

also keep in mind, that gitpod meddled heavily with the underlying container runtime, replacing its device-cgroup-policies and such. If you're fine with going this path, sysbox might be an option for you, although their future seems a bit unclear to me.

apart from this, you totally can mount the host containerd socket inside your container. But then you're not any bit less unsecure than using privileged containers.

<@735445183365382216> - Out of curiosity, what is the building of the new containers for?

You can just use sysbox on this single node and set the container runtime for sysadmins workspaces to this runtime.

You can even give him a node where he gets VMs deployed as workspace via libvirt or whatever

With coder you're not tied to quirks because your workflow/usecase does not fit to what the vendor had in mind. It's much more flexible. And the best thing: From a users/admin point of view, it's massively reduced in complexity compared to gitpod. This is especially visible on updates - which are basically a new binary and not tens of GB of container images, plus the fear that any of the hundreds of components will silently fail after the update is made.

Yeah, I'm not the most experienced in all this and when I went to look at Gitpod and how my use case could be handled by it all I could come up with was - "WTF? 🤯 ". When I found Coder, it was love at first sight, because it all just made sense and I can fit it to my workflows easily. In other words, Coder is one of those "10x" tools. 🙂

I am not a sysadmin or other, just a student, the thing I really like about Coder is the ease of use and the "tech-lock" (you can use basically anything that have a terraform module), I am not ready to go in the K8s rabbit hole, and the fact you can use docker with sysbox to have micro-VM to dev is really cool

I am a student and who works on machine learning research and was looking for an easy way to share our GPU servers within the lab members. I first tried gitpod self hosted but couldn't set it up. Then I came across Coder and it was exactly what I was looking for. I already had a docker image for my use case and it was super easy to create a template and onboard everyone in like 1 day. After VS code desktop everyone loves it more.

Thanks, everyone

I have a question about the latest release. I've seen that the max TF version got a bump up. Does this mean that I have to install a newer version (I build a container with TF included as the deployment has no internet access to download it itself)?

i believe it’s sensitive down to the patch version

So I have to change the version to 1.3.9? (I don't really get why there is more than one version specified anyway)

Nah, we support a range. The upper bound has been lifted, but the lower bound hasn't.

ah my b forgot we changed

How can I mount host directory to docker using terraform file?
