## Code Contribution
|
|
|
|
## 1. Setup your development environment
|
|
|
|
Follow the steps below for your operating system:
|
|
|
|
### Windows
|
|
|
|
1. Install `docker-ce`, Docker Desktop (or similar):
|
|
- Docker CE (recommended):
|
|
- Install Windows Subsystem for Linux v2 (WSL2) by following this guide: [Install WSL](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install)
|
|
- After installing WSL2, install Docker CE for your Linux distribution by following this guide: [Install Docker Engine](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/)
|
|
- Make sure to choose the appropriate Linux distribution (e.g., Ubuntu) when following the Docker installation guide
|
|
- Install Docker Desktop (easier):
|
|
- Download and install [Docker Desktop for Windows](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/install/windows-install/)
|
|
- Ensure WSL2 backend is enabled in Docker Desktop settings
|
|
|
|
2. Install Spin:
|
|
- Follow the instructions to install Spin on Windows from the [Spin documentation](https://serversideup.net/open-source/spin/docs/installation/install-windows#download-and-install-spin-into-wsl2)
|
|
|
|
### MacOS
|
|
|
|
1. Install Orbstack, Docker Desktop (or similar):
|
|
- Orbstack (recommended, as it is a faster and lighter alternative to Docker Desktop):
|
|
- Download and install [Orbstack](https://docs.orbstack.dev/quick-start#installation)
|
|
- Docker Desktop:
|
|
- Download and install [Docker Desktop for Mac](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/install/mac-install/)
|
|
|
|
2. Install Spin:
|
|
- Follow the instructions to install Spin on MacOS from the [Spin documentation](https://serversideup.net/open-source/spin/docs/installation/install-macos/#download-and-install-spin)
|
|
|
|
### Linux
|
|
|
|
1. Install Docker Engine, Docker Desktop (or similar):
|
|
- Docker Engine (recommended, as there is no VM overhead):
|
|
- Follow the official [Docker Engine installation guide](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/) for your Linux distribution
|
|
- Docker Desktop:
|
|
- If you want a GUI, you can use [Docker Desktop for Linux](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/install/linux-install/)
|
|
|
|
2. Install Spin:
|
|
- Follow the instructions to install Spin on Linux from the [Spin documentation](https://serversideup.net/open-source/spin/docs/installation/install-linux#configure-docker-permissions)
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 2. Verify installation (optional)
|
|
|
|
After installing Docker (or Orbstack) and Spin, verify the installation:
|
|
|
|
1. Open a terminal or command prompt
|
|
2. Run the following commands:
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker --version
|
|
spin --version
|
|
```
|
|
You should see version information for both Docker and Spin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 3. Fork the Coolify repository and setup your local repository
|
|
|
|
1. Fork the [Coolify](https://github.com/coollabsio/coolify) repository to your GitHub account.
|
|
|
|
2. Install a code editor on your machine (below are some popular choices, choose one):
|
|
|
|
- Visual Studio Code (recommended free):
|
|
- Windows/macOS/Linux: Download and install from [https://code.visualstudio.com/download](https://code.visualstudio.com/download)
|
|
|
|
- Cursor (recommended but paid for getting the full benefits):
|
|
- Windows/macOS/Linux: Download and install from [https://www.cursor.com/](https://www.cursor.com/)
|
|
|
|
- Zed (very fast code editor):
|
|
- macOS/Linux: Download and install from [https://zed.dev/download](https://zed.dev/download)
|
|
- Windows: Not available yet
|
|
|
|
3. Clone the Coolify Repository from your fork to your local machine
|
|
- Use `git clone` in the command line
|
|
- Use GitHub Desktop (recommended):
|
|
- Download and install from [https://desktop.github.com/](https://desktop.github.com/)
|
|
- Open GitHub Desktop and login with your GitHub account
|
|
- Click on `File` -> `Clone Repository` select `github.com` as the repository location, then select your forked Coolify repository, choose the local path and then click `Clone`
|
|
|
|
4. Open the cloned Coolify Repository in your chosen code editor.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 4. Set up Environment Variables
|
|
|
|
1. In the Code Editor, locate the `.env.development.example` file in the root directory of your local Coolify repository.
|
|
|
|
2. Duplicate the `.env.development.example` file and rename the copy to `.env`.
|
|
|
|
3. Open the new `.env` file and review its contents. Adjust any environment variables as needed for your development setup.
|
|
|
|
4. If you encounter errors during database migrations, update the database connection settings in your `.env` file. Use the IP address or hostname of your PostgreSQL database container. You can find this information by running `docker ps` after executing `spin up`.
|
|
|
|
5. Save the changes to your `.env` file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 5. Start Coolify
|
|
|
|
1. Open a terminal in the local Coolify directory.
|
|
|
|
2. Run the following command in the terminal (leave that terminal open):
|
|
```
|
|
spin up
|
|
```
|
|
Note: You may see some errors, but don't worry; this is expected.
|
|
|
|
3. If you encounter permission errors, especially on macOS, use:
|
|
```
|
|
sudo spin up
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: If you change environment variables afterwards or anything seems broken, press Ctrl + C to stop the process and run `spin up` again.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 6. Start Development
|
|
|
|
1. Access your Coolify instance:
|
|
- URL: `http://localhost:8000`
|
|
- Login: `test@example.com`
|
|
- Password: `password`
|
|
|
|
2. Additional development tools:
|
|
- Laravel Horizon (scheduler): `http://localhost:8000/horizon`
|
|
Note: Only accessible when logged in as root user
|
|
- Mailpit (email catcher): `http://localhost:8025`
|
|
- Telescope (debugging tool): `http://localhost:8000/telescope`
|
|
Note: Disabled by default (so the database is not overloaded), enable by adding the following environment variable to your `.env` file:
|
|
```env
|
|
TELESCOPE_ENABLED=true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## 7. Development Notes
|
|
|
|
When working on Coolify, keep the following in mind:
|
|
|
|
1. **Database Migrations**: After switching branches or making changes to the database structure, always run migrations:
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker exec -it coolify php artisan migrate
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
2. **Resetting Development Setup**: To reset your development setup to a clean database with default values:
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker exec -it coolify php artisan migrate:fresh --seed
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
3. **Troubleshooting**: If you encounter unexpected behavior, ensure your database is up-to-date with the latest migrations and if possible reset the development setup to eliminate any envrionement specific issues.
|
|
|
|
Remember, forgetting to migrate the database can cause problems, so make it a habit to run migrations after pulling changes or switching branches.
|
|
|
