Git Clone

This module allows you to automatically clone a repository by URL and skip if it exists in the base directory provided.

module "git-clone" {
  count    = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  source   = "registry.coder.com/coder/git-clone/coder"
  version  = "1.1.2"
  agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
  url      = "https://github.com/coder/coder"
}

Examples

Custom Path

module "git-clone" {
  count    = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  source   = "registry.coder.com/coder/git-clone/coder"
  version  = "1.1.2"
  agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
  url      = "https://github.com/coder/coder"
  base_dir = "~/projects/coder"
}

Git Authentication

To use with Git Authentication, add the provider by ID to your template:

module "git-clone" {
  count    = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  source   = "registry.coder.com/coder/git-clone/coder"
  version  = "1.1.2"
  agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
  url      = "https://github.com/coder/coder"
}

data "coder_external_auth" "github" {
  id = "github"
}

GitHub clone with branch name

To GitHub clone with a specific branch like feat/example

# Prompt the user for the git repo URL
data "coder_parameter" "git_repo" {
  name         = "git_repo"
  display_name = "Git repository"
  default      = "https://github.com/coder/coder/tree/feat/example"
}

# Clone the repository for branch `feat/example`
module "git_clone" {
  count    = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  source   = "registry.coder.com/coder/git-clone/coder"
  version  = "1.1.2"
  agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
  url      = data.coder_parameter.git_repo.value
}

# Create a code-server instance for the cloned repository
module "code-server" {
  count    = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  source   = "registry.coder.com/coder/code-server/coder"
  version  = "1.0.18"
  agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
  order    = 1
  folder   = "/home/${local.username}/${module.git_clone[count.index].folder_name}"
}

# Create a Coder app for the website
resource "coder_app" "website" {
  count        = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  agent_id     = coder_agent.example.id
  order        = 2
  slug         = "website"
  external     = true
  display_name = module.git_clone[count.index].folder_name
  url          = module.git_clone[count.index].web_url
  icon         = module.git_clone[count.index].git_provider != "" ? "/icon/${module.git_clone[count.index].git_provider}.svg" : "/icon/git.svg"
}

Configuring git-clone for a self-hosted GitHub Enterprise Server running at github.example.com

module "git-clone" {
  count    = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  source   = "registry.coder.com/coder/git-clone/coder"
  version  = "1.1.2"
  agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
  url      = "https://github.example.com/coder/coder/tree/feat/example"
  git_providers = {
    "https://github.example.com/" = {
      provider = "github"
    }
  }
}

GitLab clone with branch name

To GitLab clone with a specific branch like feat/example

module "git-clone" {
  count    = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  source   = "registry.coder.com/coder/git-clone/coder"
  version  = "1.1.2"
  agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
  url      = "https://gitlab.com/coder/coder/-/tree/feat/example"
}

Configuring git-clone for a self-hosted GitLab running at gitlab.example.com

module "git-clone" {
  count    = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  source   = "registry.coder.com/coder/git-clone/coder"
  version  = "1.1.2"
  agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
  url      = "https://gitlab.example.com/coder/coder/-/tree/feat/example"
  git_providers = {
    "https://gitlab.example.com/" = {
      provider = "gitlab"
    }
  }
}

Git clone with branch_name set

Alternatively, you can set the branch_name attribute to clone a specific branch.

For example, to clone the feat/example branch:

module "git-clone" {
  count       = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  source      = "registry.coder.com/coder/git-clone/coder"
  version     = "1.1.2"
  agent_id    = coder_agent.example.id
  url         = "https://github.com/coder/coder"
  branch_name = "feat/example"
}

Git clone with different destination folder

By default, the repository will be cloned into a folder matching the repository name. You can use the folder_name attribute to change the name of the destination folder to something else.

For example, this will clone into the ~/projects/coder/coder-dev folder:

module "git-clone" {
  count       = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  source      = "registry.coder.com/coder/git-clone/coder"
  version     = "1.1.2"
  agent_id    = coder_agent.example.id
  url         = "https://github.com/coder/coder"
  folder_name = "coder-dev"
  base_dir    = "~/projects/coder"
}

Git shallow clone

Limit the clone history to speed-up workspace startup by setting depth.

When depth is greater than 0 the module runs git clone --depth <depth>. If not defined, the default, 0, performs a full clone.

module "git-clone" {
  count    = data.coder_workspace.me.start_count
  source   = "registry.coder.com/modules/git-clone/coder"
  version  = "1.1.0"
  agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
  url      = "https://github.com/coder/coder"
  depth    = 1
}
