`0.3.0-beta.9` `perseus deploy` Couldn't get render configuration!: StoreError... on startup about perseus HOT 8 CLOSED

Okay, the contributing docs have been updated, and there's a new Bonnie script for working easily with the docs. Let me know in a discussion/issue (whatever's appropriate) if you have any problems.

Wow. First off, thank you for the detail, that's greatly appreciated! I'll begin investigating this shortly, because I'd be surprised if this isn't a bug.

from perseus.

Okay, I'm about 90% sure this is actually really simple: you need to be in app/pkg and then execute ./server from there, because it uses the directory from which you run it as its working directory. Without Docker, I can replicate that behavior on my local system. This is basically the definition of a 'gotcha', and either needs to be fixed or documented copiously!

from perseus.

This should be fixable with std::env::current_exe() if that's the case. I'll check everything against your Dockerfile in a moment, but if you can also verify that moving into app/pkg works, that'd be great.

from perseus.

This seems to avoid the errors in the Dockerfile, so I'll release this as beta 11.

from perseus.

Nice. Thank you for making a new beta release so quickly. I posted everything I could cause I'd have never figured out what causes the problem and I'm really glad you did!

Now when deploying with docker, the only thing that was missing was setting the HOST env var to 0.0.0.0. Without that the web app isn't accessible from outside of the resulting docker container. Bellow is the updated Dockerfile. At the 2nd stage it now produces a rather small docker image.

Once I manage to add all the optimizations and deploy to a VPS, would you mind if I sent a PR documenting the docker deployment to production? Actually, I've got no idea where and how to start changing the docs, so, that should be interesting.

from perseus.

My pleasure, glad I could help! Ah, I observed that too, but I thought it might be my firewall (which really hates Docker with a passion).

Please go ahead, that'd be great! I'll update the contributing page for adding to the docs, because I don't think there's actually anything about doing so yet...

from perseus.

Great. Thanks for the congributing page update. I'll see if I can understand any of that.

While trying to add bundle.wasm file size optimizations to the Dockerfile I ran into another problem I can't seem to be able to solve. Maybe it's cause of the fact that this time I'm deploying to a VPS and not cause of optimizations. Still not sure. I'll prolly post a new issue later today. Thank you.
