Setting Up Your Development Environment

We use and recommend Docker for development for the Amazon Pay extension.

To set up your development environment:

• Clone the Amazon Pay repository
• Ensure Docker is installed (Docker Desktop is a good option for developers)
• From the root of this project, run docker-compose up -d
• Once http://localhost:8082 displays the WordPress install screen, run ./bin/docker-setup.sh
• The fully configured site can now be accessed on http://localhost:8082
• The prompt to run the setup wizard can be dismissed unless there is something specific you would like to configure

To shutdown:

• Use docker-compose down to stop the running containers
• The state of the environment will be persisted in docker/wordpress and docker/data. To restart the environment simply run docker-compose up -d again. To start afresh, delete these folders and let docker-compose up re-create them.

Troubleshooting

• `ERROR: for woocommerce_amazon_pay_wordpress Cannot start service wordpress: driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint woocommerce_amazon_pay_wordpress (...): Bind for 0.0.0.0:8082 failed: port is already allocated
• Another container may be running on port 8082 already. Use docker ps to list all running containers and then use docker-compose down in the root of that project to stop it before attempting to start this container again.
