These instructions are based on using docker-compose overrides and copying/mounting the entire venv folder. This is no longer the simplest approach.

prerequisite: have edx-plaform setup w/ tutor-nightly

• Plugin scripts are run in a separate job container so we’ll need to mount volumes for these as well

• $(tutor config printroot)/env/dev/docker-compose.jobs.override.yml

  Code Block
  language yaml
  version: "3.7" services: discovery-job: volumes: - /Users/zhancock/workspace/course-discovery/:/openedx/discovery - /Users/zhancock/tutor-venvs/discovery/venv:/openedx/venv lms-job: volumes: - /Users/zhancock/workspace/edx-platform/:/openedx/edx-platform - /Users/zhancock/tutor-venvs/edx-platform/venv:/openedx/venv cms-job: volumes: - /Users/zhancock/workspace/edx-platform/:/openedx/edx-platform - /Users/zhancock/tutor-venvs/edx-platform/venv:/openedx/venv

• Install requirements based on local checkout

  Code Block
  tutor dev run discovery make requirements

• (needs fix) change the partner code in the discovery plugin init script to ‘dev’

  • https://github.com/overhangio/tutor-discovery/blob/master/tutordiscovery/templates/discovery/hooks/discovery/init#L23

  • open issue here: https://discuss.overhang.io/t/discovery-plugin-init-refresh-course-metadata-fails/2645

• Run setup. This will handle database access, migrations, DOT application setup, sync courses etc

  Code Block
  tutor dev init -l discovery

  • this might fail the first time you run it due to the LMS and/or mysql still spinning up. Just repeat the command again and it should go through.

  • if you want to dig into the scripts see https://github.com/overhangio/tutor-discovery/tree/master/tutordiscovery/templates/discovery/hooks

    • we may want to look into the new plugin api before fixing this

• Create a superuser to gain access to Django admin

  Code Block
  tutor dev run discovery ./manage.py createsuperuser

  • you should be able to log in with your superuser at http://discovery.local.overhang.io:8381/admin

  • to use your existing LMS user via OAuth visit the /login page. You will need your superuser to make yourself staff in django admin.

• (needs fix) Disable production site configuration

  • Init script will create two site configurations, the non-dev one won’t work locally so I recommend disabling it.

    • http://local.overhang.io:8000/admin/site_configuration/siteconfiguration/

    • keep=local.overhang.io:8000

    • disable=local.overhang.io
