how to run from latest repo

[polymerchm]

Want to use without waiting for next binary. Is there any instruction on how to build the binary on my local machine

See #17

@polymerchm You could try:

1. cd into code-server
2. Run yarn
3. Run yarn task vscode:clone
4. Run yarn task vscode:patch
5. Run yarn task buld:bootstrap-fork
6. Finally, yarn start

If that doesn't work let me know. I might be missing a step.

I believe you will also need a version of node 8. I use v8.15.0 which seems to work well.

[polymerchm]

Get this. Not sure what to do next.

@polymerchm It looks like you are using Mac, try swapping out linux for darwin

yarn task build:server:binary:darwin

it should output to packages/server/

[polymerchm]

No. Building in on a linux box. Ubuntu

[polymerchm]

How often do binaries come out?

[MichaelDesantis]

@polymerchm we release new versions whenever we have meaningful updates ready and tested. We don't have a set release schedule at the moment. Thus far we've been submitting new releases a few times per week.

[polymerchm]

Just struggling with installing on a linux box from the "repos". Yarn, npm and I are not good friends.

[navin-moorthy]

@nol166 Even I got the same error using Ubuntu 18.04.

[nol166]

What version of node are you guys using when running the yarn build tasks

Package xkbfile was not found in the pkg-config search path might be the key. Do you have libxkbfile-dev installed? Running pkg-config x11 xkbfile --libs should give you something like -lX11 -lxkbfile.
