Development with Docker
---
With `docker` and `docker-compose` you can easily spin up a development environment
and start working on dendrite.
### Requirements
- docker
- docker-compose (version 3+)
### Configuration
Copy the `dendrite-docker.yaml` file to the root of the project and rename it to
`dendrite.yaml`. It already contains the defaults used in `docker-compose` for
networking so you will only have to change things like the `server_name` or to
toggle `naffka`.
You can run the following `docker-compose` commands either from the top directory
specifying the `docker-compose` file
```
docker-compose -f docker/docker-compose.yml <cmd>
```
or from within the `docker` directory
```
docker-compose <cmd>
```
### Starting a monolith server
For the monolith server you would need a postgres instance
```
docker-compose up postgres
```
and the dendrite component from `bin/dendrite-monolith-server`
```
docker-compose up monolith
```
The monolith will be listening on `http://localhost:8008`.
You would also have to make the following adjustments to `dendrite.yaml`.
- Set `use_naffka: true`
- Uncomment the `database/naffka` postgres url.
### Starting a multiprocess server
The multiprocess server requires kafka, zookeeper and postgres
```
docker-compose up kafka zookeeper postgres
```
and the following dendrite components
```
docker-compose up client_api media_api sync_api room_server public_rooms_api
docker-compose up client_api_proxy
```
The `client-api-proxy` will be listening on `http://localhost:8008`.
You would also have to make the following adjustments to `dendrite.yaml`.
- Set `use_naffka: false`
- Comment out the `database/naffka` postgres url.
### Starting federation
```
docker-compose up federation_api federation_sender
docker-compose up federation_api_proxy
```
You can point other Matrix servers to `http://localhost:8448`.
### Creating a new component
You can create a new dendrite component by adding an entry to the `docker-compose.yml`
file and creating a startup script for the component in `docker/services`.
For more information refer to the official docker-compose [documentation](https://docs.docker.com/compose/).
```yaml
new_component:
container_name: dendrite_room_server
hostname: new_component
# Start up script.
entrypoint: ["bash", "./docker/services/new-component.sh"]
# Use the common Dockerfile for all the dendrite components.
build: ./
volumes:
- ..:/build
depends_on:
- another_component
networks:
- internal
```
