I created this room so that information exchange about metasmoke can be held at a slower pace between time zones etc without incessant interruption from bots etc

I suppose oither topics could be useful down the line, but for now, this is just so I can ask questions and get answers with a 12-hour cycle and still get some sort of overview of the conversation

so, just to recap, the Dockerfile is now operational again, and I pushed a new Docker image to tripleee/metasmoke:latest

there are probably some things which could or should be done differently if I had a better understanding of how the pieces fit together

I'm wondering if we should have some sort of component diagram for newcomers to indicate how all these pieces interact -- rails, yarn, bundle, heroku, passenger, redis etc etc etc

foreman

nodejs

also, what's the relationship between the mysql dump and the redis dumps I can download from metasmoke? do I need them all?

the Teams post about importing a mysql dump says I should find a CREATE DATABASE statement in the dump, but the one I got doesn't have one

room topic changed to metasmoke (a Charcoal subsidiary): For low-intensity discussion which probably cannot be sustained in Charcoal HQ (no tags)

typo fix

@tripleee yarn & bundle are development tools

passenger/nginx are prod-deploy things

heroku we don't use

nodejs is only there to support yarn

foreman is also a dev tool

@tripleee you need one SQL dump and one redis dump

@ArtOfCode so the newest one from the ones that the prod metasmoke offers?

@ArtOfCode thanks, I have been googling these so I have a vague idea, but the question is how exactly they "it together and which ones configure which other ones and which parts depend on something having been run or being up and won't run until you do

googling Procfile suggests that it's a Heroku thing, but I guess it's used by ... foreman? webpack?

maybe some sort of dependency diagram would be useful ...

@tripleee foreman

foreman is what you use to run a dev copy of metasmoke, with foreman start - it looks at the Procfile and runs those processes
