macOS setup

Instructions

• Install Docker and make sure it is up to date.

• Clone the repo with git clone https://github.com/yalefox/poocho-messenger

• Open terminal and navigate to the root of the repo.

• Make sure Docker is open.

• Run docker swarm init (Note: this only needs to be run the first time

Swarm initialized: current node (kfgchus63c3b6ew9nyrx93gya) is now a manager.

To add a worker to this swarm, run the following command:

    docker swarm join --token SWMTKN-1-41k14i127ao4m6ncj6mmu5bq4w3mqvirdl8igb417wn4v5wlez-5q0rfq8bc7qh6gdjmr654fiw1 192.168.65.3:2377

To add a manager to this swarm, run 'docker swarm join-token manager' and follow the instructions.

Most applications using docker are in a single container. Poocho messenger has a number of different containers that need to be running at the same time. The swarm is always running, if you need to get rid of it, run docker swarm leave --force

• Run cd client to navigate to /client directory.

• Create a local environment file with sudo nano .env

• Paste the following, save and exit.

REACT_APP_NATS_HOST = localhost:4222
REACT_APP_API_URL = http://localhost:5050
REACT_APP_AWS_REGION=us-east-1
REACT_APP_AWS_POOL_ID=us-east-1_Qccxby2tn
REACT_APP_AWS_CLIENT_ID=5foo8qktllsqfd8c91kh7bq8i6
REACT_APP_AWS_POOL_DOMAIN=poochodemo.auth.us-east-1.amazoncognito.com
REACT_APP_AWS_POOL_CALLBACK_URL=http://localhost

Some of the variables above come from AWS Cognito.

Navigate to Root Directory

• Navigate to the root folder of the project.

• Create a new local environment file with sudo nano .env

POSTGRES_HOST=messages-db
POSTGRES_USER=postgres
POSTGRES_PASS=postgres
POSTGRES_DB=underdog
AWS_REGION=us-east-1
AWS_POOL_ID=us-east-1_Qccxby2tn
AWS_CLIENT_ID=5foo8qktllsqfd8c91kh7bq8i6
NATS_URL=nats://nats:4222
API_PORT=5050

Start Local Environment

• Build Docker Images and run services with sh build.sh

  • The first time you run this will take some time, it took 3 minutes and 45 seconds on my local.

First run of build script

Setup Local Database

• Open a new terminal window and run:

PG_CONTAINER_ID=$(docker ps --filter name=messages-db --format "{{.ID}}")
docker exec -ti $PG_CONTAINER_ID psql -U postgres -c "CREATE DATABASE underdog;"
docker service update --force underdog_apis

• You will see a message that looks like this: https://dog.under.wtf/v1urQ1Gz

CREATE DATABASE
