Chapter 7.3 : Code server



First you can prepare your working directory as for your laptop with the following command:

apptainer pull docker://gitlab-registry.in2p3.fr/cta-lapp/cours/introduction_cpp_algorithms/introduction_cpp_algorithms_alpine_micromamba_code_server:latest
mkdir build


In the following, we will explain how to run the code server on a mesocentre node and how to connect to it from your local machine. You need to choose a port to run the code server before. You can choose any available port on your local machine.

A port can not be used by another user. To avoid conflict here a table with the ports alocated to the users:
  • jzoubian : 8081
  • mdupont : 8082
  • gsalmealier : 8083
  • gscgallimard : 8084
  • gsfantonini : 8085
  • gsmgray : 8086
  • gsmleroy : 8087
  • gsmlo : 8088
  • gsnmrhili : 8089
  • gssmeradji : 8090
  • gsytrardi : 8091
On the server set up the code server configuration file ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml with the following content: 
bind-addr: 127.0.0.1:<your_port>
auth: password
password: <your_password>
cert: false


Then you have two options to run the code server on the mesocentre, with an interactive job or with a job submission.
