Running Locally
===============

This project uses the Maven Cargo plugin to run Essentials, the CMS and site locally in Tomcat.
From the project root folder, execute:

    mvn clean verify
    mvn -P cargo.run

By default this includes and bootstraps repository data from the repository-data/development module,
which is deployed by cargo to the Tomcat shared/lib.
If you want or need to start *without* bootstrapping the development data, for example when testing
against an existing repository, you can specify the *additional* Maven profile without-development-data to do so:

    mvn -P cargo.run,without-development-data

This additional profile will modify the target location for the development module to the Tomcat temp/ folder so that
it won't be seen and picked up during the repository bootstrap process.

Access the Bloomreach setup application at <http://localhost:8080/essentials>.
After your project is set up, access the CMS at <http://localhost:8080/cms> and the site at <http://localhost:8080/myproject>.
Logs are located in target/tomcat9x/logs


Best Practice for Development
=============================

Use the option `-Drepo.path=/some/path/to/repository` during start up. This will avoid
your repository to be cleared when you do a mvn clean.

For example start your project with:

    mvn -P cargo.run -Drepo.path=/home/usr/tmp/repo


Automatic Export
================

Automatic export of repository changes to the filesystem is turned on by default. To control this behavior, log into
<http://localhost:8080/cms/console> and press the "Enable/Disable Auto Export" button at the top right. To set this
as the default for your project edit the file
./repository-data/application/src/main/resources/hcm-config/configuration/modules/autoexport-module.yaml


Building Distributions
======================

To build Tomcat distribution tarballs:

    mvn clean verify
    mvn -P dist
      or
    mvn -P dist-with-development-data

The `dist` profile will produce in the /target directory a distribution tarball, containing the main deployable wars and
shared libraries.

The `dist-with-development-data` profile will produce a distribution-with-development-data tarball, also containing the
repository-data-development jar in the shared/lib directory. This kind of distribution is meant to be used for
deployments to development environments, for instance local deployments or deployments to a continuous integration (CI)
system. (Initially, this module contains only "author" and "editor" example users for use in testing. Other data must be
placed in this module explicitly by developers, for demo or testing purposes, etc.)

See also src/main/assembly/*.xml if you need to customize the distributions.


Distributing Additional Site Projects
=====================================

Note that if your organization is using multiple site projects, you must configure the assembly of a distribution to
include all of the separate site webapps for deployment. This project is designed for stand-alone use and does not
automatically include any additional, externally-maintained site webapps.


Running the brXM Project in a Docker Container
======================

To run the brXM project in a docker container, you must install the project, build the docker image and run the docker
image respectively.

First install the project:

    mvn clean install

Then build the brXM docker image:

    mvn -Pdocker.build

This maven profile will create a docker image and add it to the local docker registry. The new image will be tagged
as org.example/myproject:0.1.0-SNAPSHOT

To run the image with in-memory h2 database:

    mvn -Pdocker.run


Running with an embedded MySQL database. To create & run environment containing builtin MySQL DB just run:

    mvn -Pdocker.run,docker.mysql

As a result, default db credentials will be used (admin/admin) and DB name will be the same as project's artifactId (e.g. myproject)

Running with an embedded PostgreSQL database. To create & run environment containing builtin PostgreSQL DB just run:

    mvn -Pdocker.run,docker.postgres

As a result, default db credentials will be used (admin/admin) and DB name will be the same as project's artifactId (e.g. myproject)

To run the image with an external mysql database, add the provided database name, username and password below to the properties
section of your project's pom.xml:

    <docker.db.host>DATABASE_HOSTNAME</docker.db.host>
    <docker.db.port>DATABASE_PORT</docker.db.port>
    <docker.db.schema>DATABASE_NAME</docker.db.schema>
    <docker.db.username>DATABASE_USERNAME</docker.db.username>
    <docker.db.password>DATABASE_PASSWORD</docker.db.password>

Then run:

    mvn -Pdocker.run,mysql

To run the image with an external postgresql database, add the same db properties as above, then run:

    mvn -Pdocker.run,postgres

After running the docker image, application logs will be shown on the terminal window.
