Docker installation

Get the latest version of docker. See the official site for installation info for your platform.
Install the latest version of docker-compose. Windows and Mac users should have docker-compose by default as it is part of Docker toolbox. For Linux users, see the official guide.
Run docker and docker-compose in terminal to see if they are properly installed.
Clone the project and cd into it.

git clone https://github.com/fossasia/open-event-android.git && cd open-event-android

Then set the required SERVER_NAME environment variable. SERVER_NAME should the same as the domain on which the server is running and it should not include 'http', 'https', 'www' or the trailing slash (/) in the url. Examples - domain.com, sub.domain.com, sub.domain.com:5000 etc

export SERVER_NAME=localhost;

In the same terminal window, run docker-compose build to build Open Event Android App Generator's docker image. This process can take some time.
After build is done, run docker-compose up to start the server.
Close the application's shell by exit command.
That's it. Go to localhost on the web browser and Open Event Android App Generator will be live.

Updating the Docker image

To update the Docker image with a more recent version of Open Event Android App Generator, you follow the same steps.
docker-compose build followed by docker-compose up.
That should be all. Open localhost in web browser to view the updated Open Event Android App Generator.
