This repository deploys Pact Broker using lightweight containers using Docker.

• A running postgres database and the ability to connect to it

1. Install Docker
2. Prepare your environment. Setup the pact broker connection to the database through the use of the following environment variables
   • PACT_BROKER_DATABASE_USERNAME
   • PACT_BROKER_DATABASE_PASSWORD
   • PACT_BROKER_DATABASE_HOST
   • PACT_BROKER_DATABASE_NAME
3. Test the pact broker environment by executing script/test.sh

• Use -p 80:80 to start the docker image, as some of the Rack middleware gets confused by receiving requests for other ports and will return a 404 otherwise (port forwarding does not rewrite headers).
• On OSX, use boot2docker ip to get the IP of the VirtualBox, and connect on port 80.
• On OSX you need to use 8080 due to boot2docker's virtual box generally not having the right priviliges to start a new process listing to default web port. This doesn't seem to be true/true anymore.
• Currently, the application makes use of thin, but you can update the Gemfile to use any application server you like.
• As the native dependencies for a postgres driver are baked into the docker container, you are limited to using postgres as a database.
• Apart from creating a postgres database no futher prepartion is required.

1. Login to docker hub from console

docker login

This will prompt for your docker hub credentials and email

2. Build the docker image for the dius account

docker login
./script/build_and_push.sh #Note: have not tested this yet
