DiffEqOnlineServer

This is the back-end that powers http://app.juliadiffeq.org/. The front-end is in a different repository, at https://github.com/JuliaDiffEq/DiffEqOnline.

Development notes

Running the server locally

julia ./api/mux_server.jl 7777

where 7777 is the port you want it to host on. You can then access it at http://localhost:7777.

Building the Docker image

Run

docker build -t diffeqonline-server .

You can run the image with

docker run -i -t --rm -p 7777:7777 -e PORT=7777 diffeqonline-server

which will host it at http://192.168.99.100:7777 rather than at localhost. The IP might vary.

You can run a interactive version of the container and not start the server with

docker run -dit -p 7777:7777 --entrypoint=/bin/bash diffeqonline-server

This does still open up the port in case you want to run some testing.

Deploying to Heroku

General instructions can be found here, but it's pretty much just

heroku container:deploy

or

heroku container:push web --app AppName

You need to make sure you are properly authenticated with the Heroku CLI for this to work.
