If you already have Docker installed on your computer, please ignore this section.

• For Windows users: It is recommended that you install WSL 2 from here before installing Docker as it is the preferred way to virtualize your containers.

You can download Docker Desktop from here.

Once you go through the installation process, you can verify if Docker has been installed successfully by opening a terminal and running:

docker --version

docker-compose --version

If you get an error, please refer to the documentation here.

Fork the repository and clone it on your computer.

Next, create a new .env file in the repository root, and add the required environment variables to it. Please contact the repository maintainers for the environment variables.

Open a terminal in the root of the repository and run the following command:

docker-compose up --build

You should now see uvicorn logs in your terminal like so:

insiit-api  | INFO:     Will watch for changes in these directories: ['/code']
insiit-api  | INFO:     Uvicorn running on http://0.0.0.0:8000 (Press CTRL+C to quit)

If you wish to open VS Code in the container, first install the Docker Extension. Then, click on the remote connection button in the bottom left extreme. Click on "Attach to Running Container...", and select "/insiit-api".

To stop a container that is already running in your terminal, press CTRL+C to exit out of the container. Then, run the following command:

docker-compose down

If you wish to run commands inside the Docker container, open a new terminal and run the command:

docker exec -it insiit-api bash

Please note that this will be a Linux environment and any commands you run will be run inside the container. For example:

PS C:\Users\Mayank> docker exec -it insiit-api bash
root@c9b3a93df5e9:/code# whoami
