Thanks to dinfuehr for providing cacao-jvm-dockerfile, on which this guide is based.
This guide summarizes the setup of a cacaojvm dev container using Windows 10 with docker.
In theory a similar approach should work on Linux based systems, if you want to isolate your cacao-dev environment from your day-to-day system.
Tools used in this guide:
- Windows 10 Pro
- docker for Desktop
- Visual Studio Code
- Fork the repository using your BitBucket account. Further information on the code submission process.
- Change the mercurial repository link in the docker file (
RUN hg clone https://bitbucket.org/cacaovm/cacao-staging) to your forked repository. - Open VS Code
- Create the dev container
- Press F1 to open the command palette.
- Execute the command
Remove-Containers: Reopen in Container
- VS Code/docker will setup the container for you
- Verify the installation
- Toggle the integrated terminal
- Open a new bash shell
- Try to locate the
cacao-stagingrepository under/code/cacao-staging
- You should now be able to use the
Open Foldercommand to open the folder/codein the container - Validate the environment by invoking
make checkin the/code/builddirectory
