• Git
• Docker

Supported IDEs

Development

This repository is a full functional docker compose application stack. Therefore, you can use the terminal to deploy a development instance on your local machine.

docker-compose up -d

Deployment Preperation

For the first deployment, some preconditions have to be met:

• Make sure the public network exists in docker
• Make sure the $PATH directory on the server exists

Deployment

For the deployment, the docker compose stack must be copied to the server and started

ssh $USER@$SERVER "docker compose -f $PATH/docker-compose.yaml down"
scp .env $USER@$SERVER:/$PATH/
scp  docker-compose.yaml $USER@$SERVER:/$PATH/
scp  server-logo.png $USER@$SERVER:/$PATH/
scp  vanillatweaks-datapacks.json $USER@$SERVER:/$PATH/
ssh $USER@$SERVER "docker compose -f $PATH/docker-compose.yaml up -d"

The $USER variable holds the username of the user on the server.
The $SERVER variable holds the IP-address or the domain of the server.
The $PATH variable holds the absolut path to the application folder on the server.
