Build ReStructure

A Dockerfile and scripts to build ReStructure and commit it to a repository. Deployable code is made available, and the latest version (in the source version.txt) will be upversioned.

The Process

The build process performs the following

  • gets the latest version from a specified remote branch in the dev repo
  • bundles and packages gems for production deployment in vendor/cache
  • installs Javascript components based on the YARN packages in yarn.lock
  • precompile Javascript and CSS assets from project code and YARN installed node_modules
  • sets up an app database, and migrates it to the current version
  • updates a section marked ## Unreleased in the CHANGELOG.md to the new version and date
  • run Brakeman tests to enforce static code analysis
  • run bundle-audit to prevent insecure gems being deployed
  • runs a subset of the rspec tests to validate the build
  • commits and pushes the built and tagged version back to the repo (and / or an alternative production repo if specified)

Setup the Docker image

docker image build .

You may need to clear the output director to get started:

sudo rm -rf output/restructure*

If you receive strange merge conflicts during build, this can also often resolve them.

If you get an error that yum can't find a repository due to no space, you may need to clean up docker. This will clean everything!

docker system prune -a
docker volume rm $(docker volume ls -f dangling=true -q)

Configuration

Copy build-vars-sample.sh to build-vars.sh and edit it with your details.

To commit the built version to a different production repo, specify the PROD_REPO_URL environment variable with the URL to the repo.

To prevent the built version being pushed to the dev repo, specify ONLY_PUSH_TO_PROD_REPO=true

To prevent built assets (Javascript, CSS, packaged gems) being pushed to the dev repo, specify ONLY_PUSH_ASSETS_TO_PROD_REPO=true. They will continue to be pushed to the production repo if it is being used.

Set up a file shared/.netrc to include login credentials to any private git repos (the original source and optionally the production repo) to allow the container to clone, pull and push your code. The file contents should look like:

machine github.com login mygithubid password myplaintextpassword
machine hostname.of.prod.repo login prodrepouserid password anotherplaintextpassword

Protect the plaintext file with:

chmod 600 shared/.netrc

If you use .netrc for your git authentication anyway, then a symlink will suffice:

ln -s ~/.netrc ./shared/.netrc

Ensure that build-vars.sh and .netrc are not committed to source control. Check the .gitignore file.

Build the container with:

./build.sh

Run a build

Run the build process according to the settings in shared/build-vars.sh with:

./build.sh

On a successful build, the output directory will contain a sub-directory restructure containing built and deployable code. The file shared/build_version.txt will show the new version.
