[praveen2211]

@leandrofars post execution of docker compose command images(mongo,mochi,golang node etc) are up but when we try execute
"go run main.go -u root -P root -mongo "mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017" .

I am facing the below error in my local environement could you please help me on the same.
Seems like application is expecting an properties file .

/oktopus/backend/services/controller/cmd/oktopus$ go run main.go -u root -P root -mongo "mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017"

Controller is trying to login into a mongodb in your localhost, which doesn't seem to exist. Try to use a valid mongo url.

[leandrofars]

You can use this docker compose to start a mongodb instance in your machine:

version: '3.8'  # You can use a different version if required.

services:
  mongodb:
    image: mongo:latest  # You can specify a specific version here if needed.
    container_name: my_mongodb
    ports:
      - "27017:27017"

Run with 'docker-compose up'

@leandrofars images of mongodb,redis,go lang etc are up but while i try to bring up application through main.go it is expecting environment variables
also where should we add this configuration ?

[leandrofars]

You might use a .env.local from the directory you are running the controller. If you go to 'oktopus/backend/services/controller' you'll see there is a .env file, you can copy this file to a .env.local in the same folder and fill the 'SECRET_API_KEY' inside of it, and then from that folder you execute: 'go run cmd/oktopus/main.go -u root -P root -mongo "mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017" '. This SECRET_API_KEY variable is responsable for signed jwts, if you're running a local app you don't need this env variable, but it's nice to have in production.
