Common (Docker) Tasks

Spin up servers

• Start Solr, Fedora, and Rails servers

  1. Type cd ./wustl2019 to change directory to the root of your Rails application
  2. Type docker-compose up

• Shut down Solr, Fedora, and Rails servers

  1. In the terminal window where your servers are running, type ctrl-C
  2. Alternative: In your main terminal window, in your project context, type docker-compose down.

• Start a Bash session to your application container

  1. Type cd ./wustl2019 to change directory to the root of your Rails application
  2. Type docker-compose run web bash to connect to a command prompt running in the application container
  3. Type exit when you're done to return to to your local system

• Start a Rails console

  1. Type cd ./wustl2019 to change directory to the root of your Rails application
  2. Type docker-compose run web rails console to enter the console (or rails c for shorthand)
  3. Type exit when you're done to return to your local system

Common error fixes

• Fix Solr if you get an error like ERROR: Core 'hydra-test' already exists!

  1. Clear the test solr instance using rm -rf tmp/solr-test/server/solr/hydra-test
  2. ALTERNATE Try solr_wrapper --config config/solr_wrapper_test.yml clean
  3. Try rails ci again and things should work; if not, ask for help!

• Re-set Repository (without re-pulling code)

  1. Keep servers running
  2. In a rails console (docker-compose run web rails console)
     • Clean out Fedora

     require 'active_fedora/cleaner'  
     ActiveFedora::Cleaner.clean!
     

     • Clean out Solr

     Blacklight.default_index.connection.delete_by_query("*:*"); Blacklight.default_index.connection.commit
     

  3. On the command line docker-compose run web bundle exec rake db:reset
  4. On the command line,
     • Standard new repo set-up

     docker-compose run web bundle install
     docker-compose run web rails db:migrate
     docker-compose up
     docker-compose run web rails hyrax:default_collection_types:create
     docker-compose run web rails hyrax:default_admin_set:create
     

Advanced topics

1. To use byebug:

• After hitting the byebug in your code, run docker ps to get the id for the web container. Copy that id and then run:

    docker attach 943094304

• Hit enter and you'll be in the byebug.
