Getting Started

$ npm install -g joola

Docker

Joola can be used as a Docker container file to support easy playing around and testing. Docker will pull the latest docker image and run Joola in a container for you.

$ docker run -p 8080:8080 -it joola/joola

Vagrant

We have included a Vagrant file to support easy playing around and testing. Running vagrant up will install all needed dependencies and allow you to run Joola in a sand boxed virtual environment.

# Clone this repository 
$ git clone https://github.com/joola/joola
cd joola
# Update submodules containing chef recipes 
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update
$ npm install
 
$ vagrant up
# wait for the box to come online 
$ vagrant ssh
 
# once in the box 
cd /vagrant
$ node joola.js

We have configured the VM to use 2 CPUs with 2048MB of memory, but these can be configured from Vagrantfile if you prefer different settings.
