-
Install Termux, an Android terminal emulator that provides a Linux execution environment and various tools.
-
Update system packages in Termux:
$ pkg update -y
-
Install dependencies, including python, nodejs, and yarn:
$ pkg install -y python nodejs yarn git
-
Install code-server, an adaptation of Visual Studio Code that runs as a web app using the following command. The installation may take a while:
$ yarn global add code-server
-
Before starting code-server, we are going to fix an error caused by spdlog, which is a dependency of Visual Studio Code. First, change your working directory to
~/.config/yarn/global/node_modules/code-server/lib/vscode/node_modules/spdlog/
:$ cd ~/.config/yarn/global/node_modules/code-server/lib/vscode/node_modules/spdlog/
-
You will need a text editor for the next step. Here Vim is used for this task, but you are free to use whatever text editor you love:
$ pkg install vim
-
Open
binding.gyp
and enter edit mode. You can do this by pressingi
once you open the file using Vim:$ vim binding.gyp
-
Add
"libraries": [ "-latomic" ]
below"target_name": "spdlog",
. This helps spdlog compile on Android."targets": [{ "target_name": "spdlog", + "libraries": [ "-latomic" ], "sources": [ "src/main.cc", "src/logger.cc" ],
-
Save the file and quit text editor. You can do this by pressing
ESC
and thenwq
in Vim: -
Recompile spdlog using the following command:
$ npm install
-
(Optional) To see if spdlog works, run:
$ npm test
-
To fix the file search function of code-server, install
ripgrep
viapkg
and link it to the correct place:$ pkg install ripgrep -y $ cd ~/.config/yarn/global/node_modules/code-server/lib/vscode/node_modules/vscode-ripgrep/bin $ ln -s $(which rg) .
-
Finally, change the working directory back to home and start code-server with the following command:
$ cd ~ $ code-server --auth none --disable-telemetry
-
Now, you can open your browser and visit code-server at http://localhost:8080.
-
(Bonus) If you wish to visit this code-server from another device in the same local network, you can expose the HTTP service to all network interfaces by starting code-server with
--bind-addr
:$ code-server --bind-addr 0.0.0.0:8080 --disable-telemetry
You can find the password under
~/.config/code-server/config.yaml
:$ cat ~/.config/code-server/config.yaml
You may also need to enable HTTPS to enable clipboard and others features of Visual Studio Code in browsers. To do this, install
openssl-tool
and let code-server generate a certificate on startup:$ pkg install openssl-tool $ code-server --bind-addr 0.0.0.0:8080 --cert --disable-telemetry
You can get the public IP address of your device using the command below in Termux:
$ ifconfig
Are these all the commands which I have to give to termux, then VS code will be ready?
How to open local file and live server can anyone help me
Another easy method
😜
termux-setup-storage
pkg install proot-distro
(if it doesn't work, change the repository viatermux-change-repo
)
proot-distro install ubuntu
proot-distro login ubuntu
pkg update
curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh
code-server --auth none
Then open your browser minimizing the termux and search on the Google search bar
http://127.0.0.1:8080
This method install last version (4.5.1 at the moment)
To install extensions that are not available in the extensions menu (for example, copilot and copilot labs), you need to download the extension in the VSIX format link and install it in the code-server via
Extensions: Install from VSIX
in command palette

@Adventuresofbot While running the code i get this error- bin/sh : 1: g++: not found
maybe you didn't install c-compiler before like clang
Precisa ter root para fazer esse procedimento?
Método fácil
😇
pkg install proot-distro
proot-distro install Ubuntu
proot-distro login Ubuntu
pkg update
pkg install wget
wget https://github.com/coder/code-server/releases/download/v4.4.0/code-server-4.4.0-linux-arm64.tar.gz
tar -xvf code-server-4.4.0-linux-arm64.tar.gz
cd code-server-4.4.0-linux-arm64
cd bin
export PASSWORD="12345"
./code-server
Em seguida, abra seu navegador minimizando o termux e pesquise na barra de pesquisa do Google
http://127.0.0.1:8080
Is root required?

Got error,node version 16 is required but i have version 18 how to install version 16 or any other way to fix this
The last version of nodejs on termux is currently version 16. So simply run
pkg remove nodejs
pkg install nodejs-lts
this is an example in samsung dex mode
Thank you for your tip.
I installed copilot and copilot labs.
Copilot is working, but the sidebar of labs shows only the three subtabs empty. I see "explain", "translate" and brushes as expandables but without content.
Do you know, what this can be.
Have termux 0.118 and all lastest versions.
Thank you in advance.
Terminal inside vscode from termux package doesn't work for me. There is an open issue.

@jaimemrjm That's a problems that could be easily parsed via, if installed with yarn

I have installed from termux pkg:
pkg install tur-repo
pkg install code-server
The latest install doc say anything about using yarn to install code-server on Termux:
https://coder.com/docs/code-server/latest/termux#installation
Where are the update steps to install code-server from yarn and termux? Note the OP are no longer valid because nodejs package is v19 and nodejs-lte is v18, so I think the code-server will have installation issues because it requires nodejs v16 or v17.

@jaimemrjm When I installed Code Server on my device with yarn
, I use
FORCE_NODE_VERSION=FALSE yarn global add code-server --ignore-engines
Upgrade
FORCE_NODE_VERSION=FALSE yarn global upgrade code-server --ignore-engines
Code Server uses Node v16 because it is the only version VSCode is tested on, but I have seen no issues (beside the terminal) when running on Termux official NodeJS (v19)
But if you want to keep the package from the TUR
, there is a nodejs-16
package to keep compatibility with the code-server
package
Does anyone know a good browser to use for this? One that won't open the print dialog on ctrl+p, and won't close the menus as soon as they open because the keyboard closes.
FORCE_NODE_VERSION=FALSE yarn global add code-server --ignore-engines
If you want to check it out, I post a comment before, being more specific on how to install and get the terminal working.
pkg upgrade -y
pkg install nodejs python yarn binutils
v=$(node -v); v=${v#v}; v=${v%%.*};
FORCE_NODE_VERSION="$v" yarn global add code-server@4.6.0 --ignore-engines;
now you have a working code-server on termux not proot
@radaevm step 1-3 are done and it still hasn't worked. I'm a noob but I'll try to make 4 work. Thanks, if you can explain in simple steps it would help me greatly if not then that's fine as well.
