PilotCity-Boiler
This a template repository that can be used for PilotCity developers to create their own activities for the PilotCity Platform. Do to the extensive use of docker, it's recommended for you to be familiar with docker and docker-compose before using this repository.
Using the template
To use this repo, create a template on your own github account. Do this by clicking on the template button on the top right of the repository page. Make it public and only pull the master branch.
Project setup
This project is built for development through docker and vscode. Everything should work out of the box.
Add Original Template as upstream for changes
git remote add upstream https://github.com/PilotCityInc/PilotCity-PDK-Boiler
git merge upstream/master master --allow-unrelated-histories --squash
Fix any conflicts if possible
git push
docker-compose up
This will start multiple services as outlined in the docker-compose.yml file. By default this will start 4 services.
version: '3.8'
networks:
pdk:
driver: bridge
services:
microapp: # Microapp builds the pdk-sample. By default the in-container development image is used. See more here https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/containers
container_name: microapp
...
# microapp: # host-based development. This image syncs the state of the container with the host. Simpler to use, although its much more intensive
# container_name: microapp
...
mongodb: # creates local mongodb database server with prebuilt test data
image: mongo
container_name: mongodb
...
mongo-cli: # creates a mongo shell that attatches to the local database defined above
container_name: mongo-cli
image: mongo
mongo-express: # mongodb web client for Database GUI
image: mongo-express
container_name: mongo-express
...
Container Development workflow
Start all the services using docker-compose up
. A service can be specified by using docker-compose up $SERVICE
.
microapp
It's recommended to attach a terminal directly to the running microapp instance for development and building directly inside the container. See (here)[https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/containers] Git management would be handled outside the container while all project files are handled directly in the container.
dependency management
dependencies can be managed directly inside the container. To install a new dependency attach your terminal directly to the container
docker attach microapp
then yarn add $PACKAGE
.
If a new dependency is added to the project it is recommended to rebuild the image rather than installing packages manually.
docker-compose down
followed by docker-compose up --build
mongodb
The Mongo service requires no configuration.
mongo-cli
To use the mongo cli make sure all services are running then attach a shell to the cli.
After running docker-compose up
then a terminal can be attached to the cli by docker attach mongo-cli
mongo-express
The express server requires no configuration and should run following a successful start of the mongodb service
Troubleshooting
If problems with docker-compose up are encountered its most likely a problem with the fixed container names. If a service is killed then the container is not removed on shutdown.
docker-compose down
will clean all containers related to this project.
A subsequent docker-compose up
should work.
Other Features
docker-compose run microapp yarn test:unit
Lints and fixes files
docker-compose run microapp yarn lint
