Generate demo Sitecore environments

XpFiddle

Generate demo Sitecore environments.

Goal

Create a YML standard for specifying a Sitecore XM or XP Docker environment, including customizations to configuration or the SampleLayout.aspx file. This intended for use in contexts like Sitecore StackExchange or for bug reports.

Architecture

• YML format, including version specfifier (for allowing new features to be added.)
• PowerShell module that converts the YML file into a Docker-Compose environment.
• Optional config file that allows specifying user preferences such as Sitecore version, ltsc2019 vs ltsc2022, license location, etc.
• Output would be confined to static files that can be reviewed before being brough on line.

Example

XpFiddleVersion: 0.1
base: xp0
modifications:
 - file: .\layouts\Sample Sublayout.aspx
   action: append
   content: |
    <p>Hello from XpFiddle!</p>
    <p>Running on machine <%= System.Environment.MachineName %>.</p>

would create a compose environment where this would be displayed after docker compose up -d:
