VSCode with Sessions

Step 0: Create and add the SSH Key​

Create an ssh key from the computer you'd like to connect from (skip this step if you already have a key)

# make the ssh key (if you don't have one)
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "your_email@example.com"

# add the keys to grid
grid ssh-keys add lit_key ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub

Step 1: Launch a session​

grid session create --name fun-bear-259

Step 2: Login to the interactive session​

grid session ssh fun-bear-259

Step 3: Install remote ssh extension​

Step 4: Click the remote tab and find your session​

Step 5: Ready​

Clicking on it will open VSCode in the remote IxNode. You can use VSCode with any of its features.

note

You can clone any Github repositories into a Session using the HTTPS cloning method (SSH will not work).
