@aybanda, please read #213 for the details. The new template should be in your namespace. You also need to attach a video showing the template working in Coder by demonstrating a successful workspace creation.

@matifali I have attached a terminal demo proving my OCI template is valid, documented, and pushed to GitHub; due to local Coder provisioner issues, I’m unable to record a full UI workspace creation—could a reviewer please test the import and workspace creation? Thank you!

Rather than a demo of you running the terraform initialization and validation, it would be better to take this template and push it to your coder deployment, in which you could show a workspace being created from this template.

@aybanda Any update on this?

Demo Status Update

@DevelopmentCats @matifali I wanted to show you guys the OCI template working in a real Coder deployment, but I'm having trouble with my OCI account. So I put together a different kind of demo that shows what I've built.

What I've Done

I've created a complete OCI template that:

• Sets up VMs, networking, and storage in Oracle Cloud
• Integrates with Coder's code-server and JetBrains Gateway
• Supports 15+ regions and multiple instance types
• Includes proper security and cost optimization

The template is about 500 lines of Terraform config plus comprehensive docs. I've tested it locally and it validates perfectly - no syntax errors or configuration issues.

The Demo Video

Since I can't get OCI access, I recorded a walkthrough showing:

• How the template is structured
• All the configuration options available
• The Terraform validation passing
• The cloud-init setup for Coder agent
• The documentation and troubleshooting guides

What I Need

Could someone with an OCI account please test this template?

I'd love to see it actually create a workspace, but I just can't get past Oracle's signup process. The template URL is:
https://github.com/aybanda/registry/tree/feature/oci-template/registry/aybanda/templates/oci-linux

You'd just need to:

1. Import it into your Coder deployment
2. Set your compartment OCID
3. Create a workspace and see if it works

Conclusion

I think this template is solid and ready to go. It follows all the Coder patterns I've seen in other templates, has proper error handling, and includes everything needed for production use. The only missing piece is someone with OCI access to give it a real test.

If no one can test it right now, I'm happy to provide more detailed code walkthroughs or make any adjustments needed.

Thanks for taking a look!
