running your own cyber-dojo Docker server on a Mac

These instructions are intended for individuals wishing to run cyber-dojo locally on their Mac laptop.
Note that these instructions are for running Docker-Toolbox for Mac.
Running Docker Desktop for Mac may or may not work.

install Docker-Toolbox for Mac

From here.



open a Docker-Quickstart-Terminal




get your cyber-dojo server's IP address

In the Docker-Quickstart-Terminal, type:
$ docker-machine ip default
It will print something like 192.168.99.100


ssh into your cyber-dojo server

In the Docker-Quickstart-Terminal, type:
$ docker-machine ssh default




setup directory permissions

cyber-dojo saves the practice sessions to /cyber-dojo
You need to set the correct permissions for this directory.
The user-id for the saver service is 19663, and its group-id is 65533.
In the cyber-dojo server terminal, type:
docker@default:~$ sudo mkdir /cyber-dojo docker@default:~$ sudo chown 19663:65533 /cyber-dojo


install the cyber-dojo script

In the cyber-dojo server terminal, type:
docker@default:~$ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyber-dojo/commander/master/cyber-dojo docker@default:~$ chmod 700 cyber-dojo


Now use this cyber-dojo script, from a (default VM) cyber-dojo server terminal, to run your own cyber-dojo server.
