  1. Enable SSH for your application<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Enable Application Access<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Set your webroot to public_html\/root (or something similar)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Move the files inside public_html to the newly created folder (root)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Update your VSCode settings.json file and include something like below<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. And don’t forget to enable SSH Access in Application Settings!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    In this case {HOSTNAME} refers to the SSH hostname, if you connect with ssh user@domain.com<\/code> than the hostname is domain.com<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    {SERVER_ID} and {APPLICATION_ID} can be found by connecting to SSH and then running the pwd<\/code> command. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Why does this not work by default?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    VSCode needs to install some configuration files and wants to save them in \/home\/{SERVER_ID}.cloudwaysapps.com\/{APPLICATION_ID}\/.vscode-server<\/code> by default, Cloudways does not allow saving files outside of the public_html<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
