Forum OpenACS Development: Re: Docker Images available

Hi Malte,
That's great news!
Last year I was working with Kenneth, trying to "dockerize" OACS in a Debian 9 container. However, we had to park the project unfortunatelly.

In my research, I found ]PO['s documentation and basics sources, based on Centos.

MALTE: "Contrary to Frank our goal is to provide ]project-open[ packages similar to .LRN as an addon to OpenACS as this will help decrease technical debt (in our eyes)."

MALTE: "work through the tedious updates necessary to get it running based off OpenACS 5.10 & PG11"

I have expertise in that "tedious" task. :)
In the past, I've created scripts to install PO from scratch (using APM package) in an OACS core installation :)

Let me know if you need help and how to jump in.

MALTE: "And please feel free to fork the github repository so we can merge your ideas an improvements into it."
Doing now! ... :)

Best wishes,
I

Hi Iuri,

can you provide me with the scripts to install ]project-open[ from scratch? That would indeed be helpful, then I don't need to run off the demo files.

Best wishes
Malte

Sure, I can share it.
However, I believe it won't be a good idea.

That tedious work was accomplish a while ago, back in 2013, when ]po[ was in 4.0

Meaning,
1. It would be great to help.
2. I had that experience in the past.
3. It will be a nice review and recycling experience about ]PO[ 5.0 data model, sources, and dependencies. I'm aware we've got substantial changes from 4 to 5.

Best wishes,
I

Ah... then indeed it most likely won't be much help at the moment. But thanks for sharing the repository nevertheless!
