Docker

TVWB, now with Docker!

To use docker, you must first install docker and docker-compose.

Docker Installation Guide

Docker Compose (might already be installed w/Docker)

Commands

There's two things to keep in mind. Starting the app and entering the app for configuration.

Starting/Running the app

To simply start the app, do the following command:

docker-compose run app start

Dissecting this command, we have docker-compose which is the base command. The run argument is saying to run a particular "service." In our case, it is the app service, defined in docker-compose.yml. The start is the start argument from the tvwb.py file.

To start the app detached (in the background) you can run:

docker-compose run -d app start

Entering/configuring the app

To configure or enter the app (as if you were doing it the "original" way) you can run the following command:

docker-compose run app shell

This command puts you into the tvwb.py shell. This allows you to create actions and events.

Keep in mind

Please keep in mind that the docker-compose.yml specifies a docker volume that more or less "links" whatever you do in the container to the ./src/components directory and the ./src/settings.py file. This ensures that your settings are saved.

This also means you can edit files and the changes will be reflected within the app.
