Decidim is a participatory democracy framework, written in Ruby on Rails, originally developed for the Barcelona City government online and offline participation website. Installing these libraries will provide you a generator and gems to help you develop web applications like the ones found on example applications or like our demo application.

Setting up the development environment of [Decidim] (https://github.com/decidim/decidim) with Docker

Overview

1. For Linux users, we need you to install Docker engine and Docker compose. Make sure you have Docker compose version 1.6 or higher by executing

$ docker-compose version

2. For PC and Mac users we need you to install Docker toolbox for Mac and Windows and use Docker Machine to create a virtual machine to run your Docker containers. Once your machine is created and you have connected your shell to this new machine, you're ready to run Docker commands on this host. If you're using Linux you can skip to the next step.

Prepare the code

$ git clone
$ cd decidim_base
$ mkdir -p pg-data redis-data

run the app

$ docker-compose build
$ docker-compose up -d
$ docker-compose run decidim_app rake db:migrate
$ docker ps (find the container id or container name)
$ docker exec -it  <containerid or containername> bash
$ rails console
$ paste the below code in console and presee enter
Decidim::System::Admin.create!(
  email: "[email protected]",
  password: "decidim123456",
  password_confirmation: "decidim123456"
)
$ docker-compose decidim_app restart

Seeding the databases

$ docker-compose run decidim_app run db:migrate

Accessing the Docker host

If you are using Docker Machine, run this command to get your current Docker host's IP:

$ docker-machine ip <your_docker_machine_name>

Browse Decidim

After you create a development app (bundle exec rake development_app):

• cd decidim_base
• docker-compose up -d
• Go to 'https://localhost:3000' Note: You will have to accept the cert warning Optionally, you can log in as: [email protected] | decidim123456

Also, if you want to verify yourself against the default authorization handler use a document number ended with "X".

Browse Admin Interface

After you create a development app (bundle exec rake development_app):

• cd decidim_base
• docker-compose up -d
• Go to 'https://localhost:3000/user/sign_in'
• Login data: [email protected] | decidim123456 Note: You will have to accept the cert warning

Browse System Admin Interface

• Go to 'https://localhost:3000/admin'
• Login data: [email protected] | decidim123456 Note: You will have to accept the cert warning
