Multiple editor instances #424
Comments
Hi @glor, yes it's fine for multiple users to connect to the same server as you are the one hosting it |
Hi @jeanp413. |
@hyunsukj89 it's fine for multiple users to access the same server though I haven't tested with that many clients (100) it should work, beware that because all the clients are accessing the same filesystem if they start editing the same file at the same time, they will overwrite it from each other |
@jeanp413 Thanks for your answer! |
openvscode-server license is MIT license, MS Vscode server license is here |
closes gitpod-io#424
I don't see an option to create multiple accounts, so I think this is not possible? Would be great though! |
as a single developer, how can i lock it down so it doesn't create multiple instances of vscode? GIVEN : i have a vscode nodejs server open in a browser tab |
Well, that's not quite how that works. The frontend is running in your browser tab and a new tab loads independantly of that just like you wouldn't expect to see your last search results if you open a new tab with google. The question would be if there is a way to suspend, save and reload the frontend like it is possible in VSCode/-ium on the desktop. I think that's interesting. But as this is far out of scope for this issue (which is about documenting behavior), I'd propose that you open a new issue for your question. |
@mickeyperlstein Also do check out https://github.com/coder/code-server which has this feature |
Can I have multiple editor instances without problems e.g. having multiple users accessing the same server? Microsofts VS Code Server seems not to support this.
Could you specify this in the documentation? I think it is of interest to everyone using the project.
