Development environment running issues

[sh4444dow]

Hey @jc21,

I'm trying to run docker-compose in development mode from JetBrains WebStorm IDE with exactly nginx-proxy-manager/bin/build-dev script meant for that purpose I suppose. I'm running docker-compose command from Docker for Windows in "linux containers" mode. As you may know, the bcrypt_lib.node contained in nodes_modules/bcrypt/lib/ is OS dependent, and all modules in node_modules are compiled with windows, and due to .:/app volume binding configuration in docker compose, the folder node_modules effectively compiled in windows is now in linux app container, and also contains an invalid bcrypt_lib.node, illisible by linux (Please see this link for more details about the problem).

I tried to switch docker for windows into "windows containers" mode, but docker-compose for windows version is too old (1.22, expected 1.24).

I finally tried to run into an ubuntu 18.04.1 VM, and the nginx-proxy-manager/bin/build-dev throws a third another error which is a weird thing like cannot find module '../'.

Can you please tell me in what environment you managed to run nginx-proxy-manager/bin/build-dev please ? I'm will try to do pull request about various enhancement and bugfixes, but it will be so good wether I could run it in development mode x)

My windows environment

WebStorm IDE version : 11.0.1
Docker 18.09.0
Docker compose 1.23.1
Docker Machine 0.16.0
Kitematic 0.17.5
Linux Kernel 4.9.125

Sincerely,

Glad to see somone is interested in developing too :)

First, I don't actually use the bin/build-dev script, I tried to get webpack hotloading working and I don't think it's quite right. So I use bin/build instead - if that one doesn't work, build-dev definitely won't.

Next, yes because you need the packages that are specific for the container using them, you have to delete your existing node_modules folder and then run bin/yarn install which will run yarn inside the same docker container that's going to use the node packages.

Let me know how you go.

I'll try to do that tonight =) That being said, have you managed to enable hot reload on backend and frontend in the same time ? Is this the role of yarn actually ?
