• Install Docker Toolbox
• Run

docker-composer up

What did just happen:

• Docker downloaded necessary files to build two images: web and db
• Docker booted up one container for each image and set up a link between them so that web can talk to db
• Docker forwarded web container port 80 to host port 8000 so it can be accessed from outside

docker exec -it idmapping_web_1 python manage.py migrate

docker exec -it idmapping_web_1 python manage.py createsuperuser

Follow the prompt to enter the admin info.

docker exec -it idmapping_db_1 mongo

use iam
db.createCollection('users')
db.users.insert({"ubcEduCwlPUID" : "XXXXXXXXXXXX", "displayName" : "Smith, John", "uid" : "jsmith", "ubcEduStudentNumber" : "12345678", "edx_id" : "f526523a5ca0466714082c80e2a07904", "cn" : "John Smith" })

Insert more data as needed.

To access backend, you need the host IP. Replace default with the machine name is you are using custom machine name.

docker-machine ip default

If everything runs well, the backend will be available at http://DOCKER_HOST_IP:8000. The following command can be use to test:

curl -u ADMIN_USERNAME:ADMIN_PASSWORD http://DOCKER_HOST_IP:8000/api/attribute

It should return a json array with all available attributes.
