[WIP] Docker-compose Open edX production stack

This is a work-in-progress.

The production stack is sufficient for a minimal production deployment of Open edX.

Lauch a production stack

Prepare build:

make directories

Build and run:

docker-compose build # go get a coffee
docker-compose up

The LMS will be reachable at http://openedxdemo.overhang.io.

The CMS will be reachable at http://studio.openedxdemo.overhang.io.

For local development, you should point to http://localhost:8800.

On the first run you will need to migrate the database and collect static assets:

make migrate
make assets

To import the Open edX demo course, run:

make import-demo-course

To daemonize:

docker-compose up -d

Development

Open a bash in the lms:

docker-compose run lms bash

Open a python shell in the lms or the cms:

make lms-shell
make cms-shell

TODO

• Make sure that secret keys are not shared with the entire world
• Don't duplicate args between containers
