codecombat docker dev setup

Introduction

CodeCombat Development environment setup.

If you don't know Docker, you should prefer use [official dev env setup] (https://github.com/codecombat/codecombat/wiki/Developer-environment)

[CodeCombat] (http://codecombat.com) is a multiplayer live coding strategy game. Learn how to code by playing a game !

You must use a codecombat-db container to store data in the db. And you must use a codecombat-web container to serve the source files and expose a nodejs web server.

Dependencies

Docker

Linux Users : Install docker

Windows and Mac Users : Install a Linux in Vagrant and install Docker in your Virtual Machine

Usage

First Setup

pull docker images

make pull-docker

restore a db snapshot

make restore-db

pull git repository and compile app

make install-app

And Voilà !

CodeCombat source code is in /data/app/coco/ CodeCombat datas are in /data/db/coco/

You can now run app and modify source code as needed.

Run CodeCombat

In a terminal run db container

cd db && make run

Ouput expected :

2014-07-27 08:27:35,960 INFO success: sshd entered RUNNING state, process has stayed up for > than 1 seconds (startsecs)
2014-07-27 08:27:35,960 INFO success: db_start entered RUNNING state, process has stayed up for > than 1 seconds (startsecs)

In another terminal run web container

cd web && make run

Ouput expected :

2014-07-27 08:28:12,081 INFO success: sshd entered RUNNING state, process has stayed up for > than 1 seconds (startsecs)
2014-07-27 08:28:12,081 INFO success: web_start entered RUNNING state, process has stayed up for > than 1 seconds (startsecs)

The container will create a directory /data/app/coco/public. Next it will create a /data/app/coco/dev-server.log

dev-server.log content expected :

2014-07-27T08:28:51.848Z - �[32minfo�[39m: Express SSL server listening on port 3000
2014-07-27T08:28:51.871Z - �[32minfo�[39m: Successfully connected to MongoDB queue!

You can play at http://localhost:3000

Enjoy :)
