hocs-workflow

This is the Home Office Correspondence Service (HOCS) workflow service.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Java 17
• Docker
• Postgres
• LocalStack

Submodules

This project contains a 'ci' submodule with a docker-compose and infrastructure scripts in it. Most modern IDEs will handle pulling this automatically for you, but if not

$ git submodule update --init --recursive

Docker Compose

This repository contains a Docker Compose file.

Start localstack (sqs, sns, s3) and postgres

From the project root run:

$ docker-compose -f ./ci/docker-compose.yml up -d localstack postgres

With Docker using 4 GB of memory, this takes approximately 2 minutes to startup.

Stop the services

From the project root run:

$ docker-compose -f ./ci/docker-compose.yml stop

This will retain data in the local database and other volumes.

Running in an IDE

This project contains a git-blame-ignore-revs file which can be used to ignore large formatting commits when using git blame. This also works in IntelliJ as it uses the standard git blame command to annotate commits. To see the correct blame information, you need to add the following to your git config:

git config blame.ignoreRevsFile .git-blame-ignore-revs

If you are using an IDE, such as IntelliJ, this service can be started by running the HocsWorkflowApplication main class. The service can then be accessed at http://localhost:8091.

You need to specify appropriate Spring profiles. Paste development into the "Active profiles" box of your run configuration.

Versioning
