↤ Developer Overview

Getting Setup with Docker ( Recommended )

Good News, You only need to do this initial setup once ;)

Requirements

• Docker
• Docker Compose

Build Docker Containers

Build the Docker Containers we need:

cd ./docker
docker-compose up --build -d nginx redis

Install Dependencies

Connect to Docker Container to prepare to run Bash Commands:

cd ./docker
docker-compose exec ourstatesbot bash

First, let's remove folders that may cause problems:

rm -fr node_modules
rm -fr vendor

Now we can install our dependencies:

yarn install
composer install
php artisan key:generate

Build Chat Bot

Now that we have all the dependencies installed, we can build the Chat Bot.

Build for Development

yarn run dev

Build for Production

yarn run production

Accessing the Chat Bot

Now you can open your web browser to http://localhost

Internally we are using http://ourstates-bot.loc as a developer domain. This can be added to your /etc/hosts by adding:

127.0.0.1 ourstates-bot.loc

Managing Docker

From your local development machine, you can manage our docker containers using docker-compose

cd ./docker

command	description
docker-compose start	Start Docker Services
docker-compose logs	View output from Docker containers
docker-compose stop	Stop Docker Services
docker-compose restart	Restart Docker Services
docker-compose down	Stop and remove Docker Containers, Networks, Images & Volumes

Flush Docker Redis Cache

cd ./docker
docker-compose run redis redis-cli -h redis FLUSHALL
