setting up your own digital-ocean cyber-dojo server

These instructions are obsolete.

The cyber-dojo server now runs inside a docker-container.
See the new instructions on running your own cyber-dojo web server.

Is a simple 6 step process:

1. start from the right image

From http://cloud.digitalocean.com

• Image: One-click Apps: [Docker 1.9.1 on 14.04]
• Size: choose $10/month or more

2. install the cyber-dojo github repo

This will take about a minute. As root (making sure you type cyber-hyphen-dojo and not cyberdojo in the git clone command)...

$ cd /var $ mkdir www $ cd www $ git clone https://github.com/JonJagger/cyber-dojo

3. install cyber-dojo as the default rails server and all the necessary gems

This will take 5+ minutes. As root...

$ cd /var/www/cyber-dojo/admin_scripts $ ./setup_digital_ocean_server.sh

4. install pre-built cyber-dojo-foundation docker-images

As root...

$ cd /var/www/cyber-dojo/languages $ ./docker_list_all_images.rb

will tell you the names of the docker-images held in the cyber-dojo-foundation docker hub
For example:

... cyberdojofoundation/clangpp_googletest == C++ (clang++), GoogleTest cyberdojofoundation/coffeescript_jasmine == CoffeeScript, jasmine cyberdojofoundation/csharp_nunit == C#, NUnit cyberdojofoundation/csharp_specflow == C#, SpecFlow cyberdojofoundation/d_unittest == D, unittest cyberdojofoundation/erlang_eunit == Erlang, eunit cyberdojofoundation/fortran_funit == Fortran, FUnit cyberdojofoundation/fsharp_nunit == F#, NUnit cyberdojofoundation/gcc_assert == C (gcc), assert ...

Now do a

$ docker pull <image>

for each image of your choice. For example,

$ docker pull cyberdojofoundation/clangpp_googletest

Alternatively, you can simply pull them all (typically takes 15+ minutes)

$ cd /var/www/cyber-dojo/languages $ ./docker_pull_all_images.rb

Note that whenever you pull new images you will need to repeat step 5.

5. refresh the caches

As root...

$ cd /var/www/cyber-dojo/caches $ ./refresh_all.sh

6. start your server

As root...

$ service apache2 restart
