Unknown option --no-auth

Values.yaml

# Optional additional arguments
extraArgs:
#  - --allow-http
  - --no-auth

Steps to Reproduce

1. Uncomment the Extra Argument for --no-auth in the helm-chart/values.yaml file
2. Install the Helm chart

Expected

Chart should install and code-server should not require a password

Actual

Chart installs but the code-server pod is in error

Logs

$ k logs code-server-694b6f4b98-j6srk -f [2021-08-19T17:51:09.606Z] error Unknown option --no-auth

Thanks @jawnsy! That worked!

I tried this with the chart and got things working:

# Optional additional arguments
extraArgs:
  - --auth
  - none

This is what my logs look like:

$ kubectl logs code-server-6dd6f4d574-pqvlf

I think if you use “–auth none” on a single line, then it gets passed to code-server as if you typed code-server "--auth none" (quoting the parameter), which confuses the command line parser. You can also try that on your command line:

$ code-server "--auth none"
[2021-08-23T23:41:07.797Z] error Unknown option --auth none
