This folder contains various files for setting up a network of Arrowhead Core systems, each located in its own Docker container. Using the files requires you to follow the below steps:
In order for data to persist after shutting down your containers, you must use a so-called Docker Volume.
The one needed by the docker-compose.yml file in this folder requires one to exist with the name mysql.
The following terminal command may be used to create such a volume:
$ docker volume create --name=mysqlWhen the database container of the docker-compose.yml starts, its database will be empty.
As the Arrowhead Core systems do not attempt to create the database tables themselves if they do not exist, you must make sure that they are created by the database container when it is started for the first time.
The following terminal command may be used, given that the root directory of this repository is the current working directory, to copy database initialization scripts to a location from which they will be read by the docker-compose.yml file:
$ cp scripts/create_empty_arrowhead_db.sql docker/The core_system_config folder contains a collection of .properties files, each of which is passed to an Arrowhead Core system when the network described in docker-compose.yml is brought up.
You may want to look at, or perhaps even edit, some of those files to get a better understanding of how the Arrowhead Core systems can be configured.
Editing them is not required, however, for the example network to run.
Having completed the above steps, you are ready to execute the following command from this directory:
$ docker-compose up --buildTo shut down the docker_default network you just started, use CTRL-C, or whatever keyboard combination is used to send the interrupt signal to Docker.
Afterwards, you may use the following command to clean up any remaining resources:
$ docker-compose down
