Sock Shop : A Microservice Demo Application

WeaveWorks built a great microservices demo!

We've adapted this demo for Tilt.

Running the Demo for the First Time:

To see the demo, install Tilt and run

$ tilt up

Making a Change to the Frontend

The Tiltfile in this directory is smart enough to check if the front-end repo is checked out, and if so, builds it from the Dockerfile.

From the current directory, run

$ cd ..
$ git clone git@github.com:microservices-demo/front-end
$ cd microservices-demo-deploy
$ tilt up

You should see Tilt building the front-end from source.

Tilt will automatically watch all changes to the front-end repo, and rebuild when it sees changes.

Try making a change to an HTML file. Change "We love socks" to "We adore socks" in index.html

Watch as Tilt picks up the change, builds the image, and replaces the existing server.
