Deployment

Build and Release Pipelines

Running the app using Docker

Make sure to have the latest docker version installed for your OS: Docker

Use docker-compose.yml to spin up the api, postgres and mailhog.

• API: http://localhost:5000
• Postgres: localhost:5432
• MailHog: http://localhost:8025 (receives all emails)

Start

<project-root>$ docker-compose up -d

Stop

<project-root>$ docker-compose stop

Stop & Remove persistent volumes

<project-root>$ docker-compose down -v

Monitor Logs

<project-root>$ docker-compose logs -f api

Rebuild API

Rebuilding the API on source updates.

<project-root>$ docker-compose stop api
<project-root>$ docker-compose build --no-cache api

Dotnet watch and volume src mounts are currently disabled due to performance impacts on the host system.

Development Notes: Create an entry for mssql and mail in your local hosts file. c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts or /etc/hosts -> 127.0.0.1 mail postgres

It's also possible to use "localhost". Adjust the environment settings for ConnectionStrings and SmtpServer.

Stop the docker api service - docker-compose stop api

• Use your IDE or the dotnet cli to run it on your local machine
• You might need to set some environment variables or edit appsettings.Development.json:
  • ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Development
  • ConnectionStrings__PostgreSQLConnection=host=postgres;database=orso-arpa;User Id=postgres;Password=postgres;
  • EmailConfiguration__SmtpServer=mail
  • EmailConfiguration__Port=1025
  • EmailConfiguration__From=test@localhost

Starting the app locally without using docker

• Install the .NET 8.x SDK
• Install PostgreSQL 16.x, start a server on localhost:5432.
• Set the PostgreSQL connection string via dotnet user-secrets (see appsettings.Development.json ConnectionStrings:PostgreSQLConnection)
• Install and start azurite, e. g. via npm
• Install oder configure a fake smtp server, e.g. Mailtrap
• Set the smtp configuration via dotnet user-secrets (see appsettings.Development.json EmailConfiguration)
• Run the project with the command dotnet run --project Orso.Arpa.Api
• Open the Swagger UI on https://localhost:5001
• Calling the local backend via the frontend may lead to certificate errors. In this case, run dotnet dev-certs https and dotnet dev-certs https --trust
