Visual Studio Code Server support in NixOS

Experimental support for VS Code Server in NixOS. The NodeJS by default supplied by VS Code cannot be used within NixOS due to missing hardcoded paths, so it is automatically replaced by a symlink to a compatible version of NodeJS that does work under NixOS.

Installation

{
  imports = [
    (fetchTarball "https://github.com/msteen/nixos-vscode-server/tarball/master")
  ];

  services.vscode-server.enable = true;
}

And then enable them for the relevant users:

systemctl --user enable auto-fix-vscode-server.service

Home Manager

{
  imports = [
    "${fetchTarball "https://github.com/msteen/nixos-vscode-server/tarball/master"}/modules/vscode-server/home.nix"
  ];

  services.vscode-server.enable = true;
}

Usage

When the service is enabled and running it should simply work, there is nothing for you to do.
