❔ Intro

A few months ago, during COVID lockdown in New-Caledonia, we decided to build cohesion around a simple yet very efficient innovation project across two teams, challenging us about what we could achieve together within less than 3 days.

Our main concern was to show what can be achieved when we have public APIs... and what we could do with Open Innovation.

🐋 Do it the Docker way

The we built and released this project relying on dedicated and public

Back image : optnc/domaine-nc-api
Front-end image : optnc/domaine-nc-front

💡 Our goals

🧪 Create a whole new UX on an existing web app
🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Collaborate accross two teams and experiment Github issues
😛 Have fun
🧑‍🎓 Get knowledge on Github Actions and pure front image building
😎 Make something cool together we can enjoy and play with

Then we did this👇

🕹️ Run the demo

cat << EOF > docker-compose.yml
version: "3.7"
services:
  api:
    image: docker.io/optnc/domaine-nc-api:latest
    ports:
      - "8080:8080"
  front:
    links:
      - api
    image: docker.io/optnc/domaine-nc-front:stable
    environment:
      - DNS_BACKEND=api:8080
    ports:
      - "80:80"
EOF

# Run docker-compose
docker-compose up -d

Now you're ready to give it a try :

# Give it a try 🤩
firefox http://localhost/opt.nc
firefox http://localhost

🙏🏻 Acknowledgements

This post is dedicated to Laurent Schaeffer (aka. lschaeffer313) and Michèle Barré (aka. @mbarre) who where the core developers.

Also I want to thank Sabrina who did trust us and accepted to invest 3 days of dev of Laurent.

We really enjoyed a lot developing together and role playing.

Now, I'm happy to welcome Daniel Santos (aka. @Dougniel) on the team as front-end and DEVOPS, and of course Michèle as back-end active maintainer.
