# User Acceptance Testing (UAT) environment Hostname: `uat.api.retropilot.org` ## Setup This setup assumes you have `docker` and `docker-compose` installed on your machine, and that you have added the relevant users to the `docker` group. Instructions given below are an example - you should look to the official documentation [here for Docker Engine](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/) and [here for Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/). ```sh # install docker and setup systemd to start it on boot sudo yum install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io sudo systemctl start docker sudo systemctl enable docker # add $USER to the docker group sudo usermod -aG docker $USER # logout and back in to see the change # install docker compose v2 for all users DOCKER_CONFIG=/usr/local/lib/docker sudo mkdir -p $DOCKER_CONFIG/cli-plugins sudo curl -SL https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/v2.2.3/docker-compose-linux-x86_64 -o $DOCKER_CONFIG/cli-plugins/docker-compose sudo chmod +x $DOCKER_CONFIG/cli-plugins/docker-compose # test docker compose docker compose version ``` Clone the Git repo to `/data/retropilot-server`. We can clone it using the `--shared` argument to allow multiple users to read/write these files (taking advantage of the Linux `sgid` permissions bit). ```sh # create /data directory and relax permissions to let a non-root user write to it sudo mkdir /data sudo chmod a+w /data # clone the repository cd /data git clone https://github.com/RetroPilot/retropilot-server.git --shared --branch uat # allow any user in the 'docker' group to read/write the files in this directory sudo chgrp -R docker retropilot-server # tighten /data permissions again so that not non-root users cannot write to it sudo chmod a-w /data ``` ## Deployment Make sure to create and modify the `.env` file as required for your environment. Note that the first time you run the PostgreSQL container it will have to initialise. The server and worker cannot interact with it before this happens. Before first run (in `/data/retropilot-server`): ```sh cd environment/uat # copy and modify the `.env` file as required cp .env.sample .env # create the database docker compose up db # CTRL-C when "database system is ready to accept connections" message appears # allow the API to initialise the database schema docker compose up db api # CTRL-C when "RetroPilot Server listening at" message appears ``` To start all the services: ```sh cd environment/uat docker compose up -d ```
