Created Docker Configs to Simplify Onboarding

PeterNotFound114 commented 2 months ago

Overview

Created Dockerfile and compose.yml file that enables running the application from a virtual container independent of system dependencies.

Requirement

Have Docker installed on your machine, which can be found here

Description

From the root directory of the project:

run docker compose up --watch to run the application in the dev server inside the container. The UI will be visible from https://localhost:3000
All code changes under /app will be synchronized after refreshing the browser page.
When finished running rails server, run docker compose down after exiting Puma (presumably by Ctrl+C) to free resources occupied by the container.

Why delete all the seed files? Feels like they'd be extra useful for spinning up a local docker container

PeterNotFound114 commented 2 months ago

Adding them back now ... seems that they're deleted while I was testing if the docker image can run independent of all prior setups. Thanks for pointing that out!

Thanks for maintaining this btw!

By the way, this is the link to official docs for getting started with Docker (and its plugin docker-compose) which I find particularly helpful for onboarding new members: https://docs.docker.com/compose/gettingstarted/
