Linux Host Testing - GitHub Workflow

I've settled on this workflow for Linux host testing. It treats the backend-examplar-2018 as a template, which simplified the git manipulations.

Create a new repository

  1. Log into GitHub
  2. Press the + button at the upper left and select "Import repository".
  3. Import from this repository with a new name.

Configuring the run

  1. Clone the repository you created above and cd into it.
  2. Copy your database backup into Backups. If the backup contains database ownership, you'll need to set DEVELOPMENT_DATABASE_OWNER in .env to the database owner.
  3. Copy env.sample to .env and edit .env:
    • Change PROJECT_NAME
    • Change DEVELOPMENT_POSTGRES_NAME
    • Change DEVELOPMENT_DATABASE_OWNER
    • Change STAGING_POSTGRES_NAME
    • Change the passwords and secret keys

Running the creation

  1. Type bin/create-api-project.sh. This will build a database image with your backup restored, and an API image. The project scaffolding from the API image will be stored in the repository.
  2. When the run completes, examine db_container.log to verify that the restore worked.
  3. Check your remote - git remote -v. Make sure you'll be pushing to the new repository, not the template!
  4. git add .; git commit; git push.
