To add additional tools, extend this image or build it yourself.\n\n### Authentication\n\nThis template authenticates using a `~/.kube/config`, if present on the server, or via built-in authentication if the Coder provisioner is running on Kubernetes with an authorized ServiceAccount. To use another [authentication method](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/kubernetes/latest/docs#authentication), edit the template.\n\n## Architecture\n\nThis template provisions the following resources:\n\n- Kubernetes pod (ephemeral)\n- Kubernetes persistent volume claim (persistent on `/home/coder`)\n\nThis means, when the workspace restarts, any tools or files outside of the home directory are not persisted. To pre-bake tools into the workspace (e.g. `python3`), modify the container image. Alternatively, individual developers can [personalize](https://coder.com/docs/v2/latest/dotfiles) their workspaces with dotfiles.\n\n\u003e **Note**\n\u003e This template is designed to be a starting point! Edit the Terraform to extend the template to support your use case.\n\n# Develop in a Nomad Docker Container\n\nThis example shows how to use Nomad service tasks to be used as a development environment using docker and host csi volumes.\n\n## Prerequisites\n\n- [Nomad](https://www.nomadproject.io/downloads)\n- [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/)\n\n## Setup\n\n### 1. Start the CSI Host Volume Plugin\n\nThe CSI Host Volume plugin is used to mount host volumes into Nomad tasks. This is useful for development environments where you want to mount persistent volumes into your container workspace.\n\n1. Login to the Nomad server using SSH.\n\n2. Append the following stanza to your Nomad server configuration file and restart the nomad service.\n\n ```hcl\n plugin \"docker\" {\n config {\n allow_privileged = true\n }\n }\n ```\n\n ```shell\n sudo systemctl restart nomad\n ```\n\n3. Create a file `hostpath.nomad` with following content:\n\n ```hcl\n job \"hostpath-csi-plugin\" {\n datacenters = [\"dc1\"]\n type = \"system\"\n\n group \"csi\" {\n task \"plugin\" {\n driver = \"docker\"\n\n config {\n image = \"registry.k8s.io/sig-storage/hostpathplugin:v1.10.0\"\n\n args = [\n \"--drivername=csi-hostpath\",\n \"--v=5\",\n \"--endpoint=${CSI_ENDPOINT}\",\n \"--nodeid=node-${NOMAD_ALLOC_INDEX}\",\n ]\n\n privileged = true\n }\n\n csi_plugin {\n id = \"hostpath\"\n type = \"monolith\"\n mount_dir = \"/csi\"\n }\n\n resources {\n cpu = 256\n memory = 128\n }\n }\n }\n }\n ```\n\n4. Run the job:\n\n ```shell\n nomad job run hostpath.nomad\n ```\n\n### 2. Setup the Nomad Template\n\n1. Create the template by running the following command:\n\n ```shell\n coder template init nomad-docker\n cd nomad-docker\n coder template create\n ```\n\n2. Set up Nomad server address and optional authentication:\n\n3. Create a new workspace and start developing.\n"
