Wires

Setup

$ docker build -t wires:latest .

First, elect a directory that will hold all HTML sites. This will be mounted as /var/www/html into the container i.e. ./sites.

Second, elect a data directory which will be mounted as /opt/wireframes and hold the nginx configuration files for the sites.

Also, you must have a WIRES_DOMAIN which resolves to the Docker host i.e. wires.activelamp.com

Example usage

We want to serve the v0.10 tag of git@github.com:client/project.git as http://project-v0-10.wires.activelamp.com:

1. Clone repo to a directory under the ./sites directory.

   $ git clone git@github.com:client/project.git --branch v0.10 --depth=5 ./sites/c109ed

2. Register the sub-domain => directory mapping via the add-site command:

   $ docker run -e WIRES_DOMAIN=wires.activelamp.com \
       -v ./wireframes:/opt/wireframes \
       wires:latest \
       add-site project-v0-10 c109ed

   This command will create the nginx configuration files under ./wireframes

3. Start/restart service mounting our sites directory and the configuration directory:

   $ docker run -e WIRES_DOMAIN=wires.activelamp.com \
       -v ./wireframes:/opt/wireframes \
       -v ./sites:/var/www/html \
       -d
       wires:latest

4. Register sub-domain to Route 53

   To be implemented. Will use awscli.

5. Repeat Step 2 to add more sites. No need to restart service.

Todos:

• Create a separate service to run on foreground so we can run it and have the freedom of reloading the nginx configurations every time we call add-site.
