# tutorial-framework test

This is an example playground project built via TFW.
It is a good starting point to build your own challenges from and will host automated tests in the future.

It also gives home to several useful scripts in the `hack` folder to speed up development.

## Getting started

TFW consists of 3 repositories:
- `baseimage-tutorial-framework` – Docker baseimage
- `frontend-tutorial-framework` – Angular frontend
- `test-tutorial-framework` (this repo)

See the documentation of each in their `README.md` files.

Getting started with creating challenges using the framework – *setting up a development environment, building, running and such* – is documented here.

To learn the stuff you need to know about TFW in order to get started you should consult the `baseimage-tutorial-framework` repo.

## Setting up a development environment

Just copy and paste the following command in a terminal:

`curl -fsSL https://git.io/vxBfj | bash`

> You have trust issues regarding the public key infrastructure? You can request a checksum authenticated version of the installer command from our team!

This will set up a special version of `test-tutorial-framework` just for you:
- the latest frontend is included in `solvable/frontend` with dependencies installed
- `solvable/Dockerfile` is pinned to use the latest TFW baseimage

## Building & running

### Automated

Our magical bash script `hack/tfw.sh` can handle everything for you. Just run it without any arguments to see usage information.

It is advisable to run the frontend locally while developing to avoid really looooong build times. The `hack/tfw.sh` script handles this for you automagically.

### Doing it manually

In case you **must** do it for some reason you can build & run manually.
Note that this is relatively painful and you should use the `hack/tfw.sh` script when possible.

Building without frontend – execute from project root:

`docker build -t test-tutorial-framework -f solvable/Dockerfile --build-arg BUILD_CONTEXT=solvable --build-arg NOFRONTEND=1 .`

This will create a Docker image without the frontend, which you can run locally. For procudtion builds exclude the argument `--build-arg NOFRONTEND=1` to include a frontend instance.

Running – execute:

`docker run --rm -p 8888:8888 -e AVATAO_SECRET=secret test-tutorial-framework` 

In case of a frontendless build (with `--build-arg NOFRONTEND=1`) you will need to run `yarn start` from the `solvable/frontend` directory as well. This will serve the frontend on `http://localhost:4200`.

If you've created a production build (without `--build-arg NOFRONTEND=1`) you don't have to run the frontend locally and you can access the challenge on `http://localhost:8888`.
