Getting started

Prerequisite

Install Docker

Starting a development environment

The development environment uses docker-compose, more information on the CLI usage here.

$ docker-compose up -d          # Start environment
$ docker-compose logs -f        # Read all components logs
$ docker-compose logs -f forum  # Read forum component logs
$ docker-compose exec forum sh  # Execute an interactive shell on the forum container

The development server is accessible at: http://localhost:8080.

Stopping a development environment

$ docker-compose down              # Stop environment (add -v to delete the volumes)
$ docker volume ls                 # List volumes
$ docker volume rm naxos_forum-db  # Delete the db
