Containerizing the frappe bench installation for a development environment
Getting Started
These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.
Prerequisites
What things you need to install the software and how to install them
Docker
docker-compose
Installing
A step by step series of examples that tell you have to get a development env running
1. Installation Pre-requisites
-
Installing Docker Community Edition
Follow the steps given in here
The Docker version used by us is Docker version 17.06.0-ce, build 02c1d87
-
Installing docker-compose(only for Linux users).Docker for Mac, Docker for Windows, and Docker Toolbox include Docker Compose
Follow the steps given in here
The docker-compose version used by us is docker-compose version 1.14.0, build c7bdf9e
2. Build the container and install bench
-
Make sure your logged in as root. Build the container and install bench inside the container as a non root user
source build-container.sh Note: Please do not remove the bench directory the above commands will create
Basic Usage
-
Starting docker containers This command can be used to start containers
docker-compose start
-
Accessing the frappe container via CLI
./start-container.sh
-
Create a new bench
The init command will create a bench directory with frappe framework installed. It will be setup for periodic backups and auto updates once a day.
bench init frappe-bench && cd frappe-bench
-
Set the db host for bench(points bench to the mariadb container)
bench set-mariadb-host mariadb
-
Add a site(make sure your current path is /home/frappe/frappe-bench)
Frappe apps are run by frappe sites and you will have to create at least one site. The new-site command allows you to do that.
bench new-site site1.local
-
Add apps(make sure your current path is /home/frappe/frappe-bench)
The get-app command gets remote frappe apps from a remote git repository and installs them. Example: erpnext
bench get-app erpnext https://github.com/frappe/erpnext
-
Install apps(make sure your current path is /home/frappe/frappe-bench)
To install an app on your new site, use the bench
install-app
command.bench --site site1.local install-app erpnext
-
Start bench(make sure your current path is /home/frappe/frappe-bench)
To start using the bench, use the
bench start
commandbench start
-
Exiting the frappe container and stopping all the containers gracefully
exit docker-compose stop
-
Removing docker containers
docker-compose rm
-
Removing dangling volumes The volume frappe on your local machine is shared by the host(your local machine) and the frappe container. Please do not delete this volume from your local machine. Any changes made in this directory will reflect on both the container and the host. The below command specifies how to remain dangling volumes which may be taking up unecessary space on your host.
docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -f dangling=true -q)
To login to Frappe / ERPNext, open your browser and go to [your-external-ip]:8000
, probably localhost:8000
The default username is "Administrator" and password is what you set when you created the new site.
