My software development environment in a docker container

docker-dev: Dockerized Development Environment

Welcome to docker-dev! This repository houses my software development environment encapsulated within a Docker container.

Getting Started

1. Start the container

Using make:

make run

Without GNU make:

docker run -d --rm --name dev docker-dev:latest

2. Setting Up User Password

If you wish to change the default user password, follow these steps:

1. Launch a shell inside the container:

   docker exec -it dev bash

2. Change the password for clarry:

   passwd clarry

3. Exit the shell.

3. Executing Commands as a User

To run a shell program as the user clarry, use:

docker exec -it --user clarry:clarry dev bash

4. Generate a Github Personal Authentication Token

A Github personal authentication token is required to install the dotfiles using YADM.

• Navigate to Github and log into your account.
• Click on your profile photo (top right) and go to Settings.
• On the left sidebar, click on Developer settings.
• Click on Personal access tokens, then Generate new token.
• Provide a descriptive name for the token and select the required scopes.
• Click Generate token.
• Copy the generated token and use it as a password when prompted by git

5. Integrating Dotfiles

Add my configurations from the Dotfiles repository.

yadm clone https://github.com/ceaser/dotfiles.git

When prompted to run the bootstrap process, enter y.
