Philomena

Getting Started

Make sure you have Docker and Docker Compose plugin installed.

Add the directory scripts/path to your PATH to get the philomena dev CLI globally available in your terminal. For example you can add the following to your shell's .*rc file, but adjust the path to philomena repo accordingly.

export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/dev/philomena/scripts/path"

Use the following commands to bring up or shut down a dev server.

philomena up
philomena down

Once the application has started, navigate to http://localhost:8080 and login with

Credential	Value
Email	[email protected]
Password	philomena123

Tip

See the source code of scripts/philomena.sh for details on the additional parameters and other subcommands.

Pre-commit hook

Run the following command to configure the git pre-commit hook that will auto-format the code and run lightweight checks on each commit.

philomena init

IDE Setup

If you are using VSCode, you are encouraged to install the recommended extensions that VSCode should automatically suggest to you based on .vscode/extensions.json file in this repo.

Troubleshooting

If you are running Docker on Windows and the application crashes immediately upon startup, please ensure that autocrlf is set to false in your Git config, and then re-clone the repository. Additionally, it is recommended that you allocate at least 4GB of RAM to your Docker VM.

If you run into an OpenSearch bootstrap error, you may need to increase your max_map_count on the host as follows:

sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144

If you have SELinux enforcing (Fedora, Arch, others; manifests as a Could not find a Mix.Project error), you should run the following in the application directory on the host before proceeding:

chcon -Rt svirt_sandbox_file_t .

This allows Docker or Podman to bind mount the application directory into the containers.

If you are using a platform which uses cgroups v2 by default (Fedora 31+), use podman and podman-compose.

Deployment

You need a key installed on the server you target, and the git remote installed in your ssh configuration.

git remote add production philomena@<serverip>:philomena/

The general syntax is:

git push production master

And if everything goes wrong:

git reset HEAD^ --hard
git push -f production master

(to be repeated until it works again)
