Developing

Built With

Prerequisites

• Install Garden with curl -sL https://get.garden.io/install.sh | bash
• Install Devbox with curl -fsSL https://get.jetpack.io/devbox | bash
• You are a registered user on https://gitlab.hansen.agency with permissions to contribute to the Little Bits of Buddha project
• You have a $GITLAB_TOKEN with the api and write_repository scopes generated at https://gitlab.hansen.agency/-/profile/personal_access_tokens or an SSH key added to your account on this GitLab instance
• You have a $LOFT_ACCESS_KEY generated by @worldofgeese granting access to this project's Kubernetes cluster

Contact @worldofgeese if you need help getting set up 😊

Setting up Dev

In order to get started developing run the following in your shell from inside the project directory:

⚠️ If you are using 1Password: consider using 1Password CLI to securely authenticate GitLab and to generate your SSH key.

devbox global add glab
eval "$(devbox global shellenv)"
glab auth login -h gitlab.hansen.agency -t $GITLAB_TOKEN
glab config set -h gitlab.hansen.agency git_protocol http
GITLAB_HOST=gitlab.hansen.agency glab repo clone worldofgeese/little_bits_of_buddha
devbox shell
cd little_bits_of_buddha
export TF_VAR_loft_access_key=$LOFT_ACCESS_KEY

Devbox will offer to install Nix if not already installed. devbox shell will install all other requirements into an isolated development environment and launch you into it.

Now run garden deploy when you're ready to deploy your app to your own private user namespace 🚀

Alternatively, open a cloud development environment in your browser with Devbox Cloud, Gitpod, or open in GitHub Codespaces by clicking their buttons below 👇.

Be sure to configure Gitpod and GitHub Codespaces before first start.

Setting up your Editor

VS Code

If you use VS Code as your editor, please run devbox shell before launching VS Code from your shell with code .. This ensures Devbox's shell variables are exported into your editor session. You may alternatively choose to use the Dev Container this project ships with.

Emacs

For Emacs, this project ships with a .envrc file that can be used by the envrc package to auto-load a Devbox shell on navigating to the project. Instructions for use by Doom Emacs users can be found at the docs page. Other Emacs users can visit the envrc GitHub repository.

Gitpod and GitHub Codespaces

Set GITLAB_HOST, GITLAB_WORKFLOW_INSTANCE_URL, GITLAB_TOKEN and GITLAB_WORKFLOW_TOKEN as variables before launching your Gitpod workspace or Codespace to automatically authenticate with the GitLab Workflows and GitLab glab CLI tool on start-up. The first two variables share the same value (https://gitlab.hansen.agency). The remaining two values are the API token you generated in Prerequisites.

• For Gitpod, set your variables here.
• For GitHub Codespaces, set your variables here.
