docker-rails-postgres

This repo is used as a template to get started with a development environment using Docker Compose, Rails, and Postgress.

Required

You need to have docker installed and running

Installation

Create the database:

# Remove git remote origin
git remote remove origin

# Move .env-sample and rails/secrets.sample.yml file
mv .env-sample .env
mv rails/config/secrets.sample.yml rails/config/secrets.yml

# Generate new token & copy output to .env SECRET_KEY_BASE
docker-compose run web bundle exec rake secret

# Build images and boot
docker-compose build
docker-compose up

# Create the new database
docker-compose run web bundle exec rails db:create

Start/stop

docker-compose up # this is used to boot
docker-compose down # this is used to shutdown

Notes

A volume will be created on the host machine for the data to allow for persistent data. No need to reseed your database.
