Getting Up and Running Locally With Docker
==========================================
.. index:: Docker
The steps below will get you up and running with a local development environment.
All of these commands assume you are in the root of your generated project.
Prerequisites
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
-------------
2016-06-13 18:40:48 +03:00
You'll need at least Docker 1.10.
2015-10-04 02:59:52 +03:00
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
If you don't already have it installed, follow the instructions for your OS:
- On Mac OS X, you'll need `Docker for Mac`_
- On Windows, you'll need `Docker for Windows`_
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
- On Linux, you'll need `docker-engine`_
.. _`Docker for Mac`: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/mac/
.. _`Docker for Windows`: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/windows/
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
.. _`docker-engine`: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/
Attention Windows users
-----------------------
Currently PostgreSQL (``psycopg2`` python package) is not installed inside Docker containers for Windows users, while it is required by the generated Django project. To fix this, add ``psycopg2`` to the list of requirements inside ``requirements/base.txt``::
# Python-PostgreSQL Database Adapter
psycopg2==2.6.2
Doing this will prevent the project from being installed in an Windows-only environment (thus without usage of Docker). If you want to use this project without Docker, make sure to remove ``psycopg2`` from the requirements again.
Build the Stack
---------------
This can take a while, especially the first time you run this particular command
2015-10-04 02:44:43 +03:00
on your development system::
$ docker-compose -f local.yml build
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
If you want to build the production environment you use ``production.yml`` as -f argument (``docker-compose.yml`` or ``docker-compose.yaml`` are the defaults).
Boot the System
---------------
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
This brings up both Django and PostgreSQL.
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
The first time it is run it might take a while to get started, but subsequent
runs will occur quickly.
Open a terminal at the project root and run the following for local development::
$ docker-compose -f local.yml up
You can also set the environment variable ``COMPOSE_FILE`` pointing to ``local.yml`` like this::
$ export COMPOSE_FILE=local.yml
And then run::
$ docker-compose up

2015-10-04 02:44:43 +03:00
Running management commands
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2015-10-04 02:44:43 +03:00
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
As with any shell command that we wish to run in our container, this is done
using the ``docker-compose -f local.yml run`` command.
To migrate your app and to create a superuser, run::
$ docker-compose -f local.yml run django python manage.py migrate
$ docker-compose -f local.yml run django python manage.py createsuperuser
2015-10-04 02:44:43 +03:00
Here we specify the ``django`` container as the location to run our management commands.
Add your Docker development server IP
-------------------------------------
When ``DEBUG`` is set to `True`, the host is validated against ``['localhost', '127.0.0.1', '[::1]']``. This is adequate when running a ``virtualenv``. For Docker, in the ``config.settings.local``, add your host development server IP to ``INTERNAL_IPS`` or ``ALLOWED_HOSTS`` if the variable exists.
Production Mode
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Instead of using `local.yml`, you would use `production.yml`.
Other Useful Tips
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
-----------------
Make a machine the active unit
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2016-03-08 12:07:48 +03:00
This tells our computer that all future commands are specifically for the dev1 machine.
Using the ``eval`` command we can switch machines as needed.
::
$ eval "$(docker-machine env dev1)"
Detached Mode
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2015-10-04 22:09:18 +03:00
If you want to run the stack in detached mode (in the background), use the ``-d`` argument:
2015-10-04 22:09:18 +03:00
::
$ docker-compose -f local.yml up -d
Debugging
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ipdb
"""""
If you are using the following within your code to debug:
::
import ipdb; ipdb.set_trace()
Then you may need to run the following for it to work as desired:
::
$ docker-compose -f local.yml run --service-ports django
django-debug-toolbar
""""""""""""""""""""
In order for django-debug-toolbar to work with docker you need to add your docker-machine ip address to ``INTERNAL_IPS`` in ``local.py``
.. May be a better place to put this, as it is not Docker specific.
You may need to add the following to your css in order for the django-debug-toolbar to be visible (this applies whether Docker is being used or not):
.. code-block:: css
/* Override Bootstrap 4 styling on Django Debug Toolbar */
#djDebug[hidden], #djDebug [hidden] {
display: block !important;
}
#djDebug [hidden][style='display: none;'] {
display: none !important;
}

Using the Mailhog Docker Container
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2016-06-13 18:40:48 +03:00
In development you can (optionally) use MailHog_ for email testing. If you selected `use_docker`, MailHog is added as a Docker container. To use MailHog:
1. Make sure, that ``mailhog`` docker container is up and running
2. Open your browser and go to ``http://127.0.0.1:8025``
