A small full stack app to experiment with the deployment process of devspace.

• You need to install devspace.
• You need to have access to a Kubernetes cluster. The easiest would be to install docker for your OS and to enable Kubernetes.

Then, we can use devspace to fire up development containers via the following process.

1. Make sure you are in the right context. If in doubt, use devspace use context and select it again. For instance, if you want to use the Docker Kubernetes context you will need to select docker-desktop.
2. Choose a namespace for the app, for example workcalendar via devspace use namespace workcalendar.
3. Fire up the development container devspace dev which will build a development image containing all necessary dependencies and development extras such as pytest, flake8 and black.
4. If everything goes will, you will be greeted by a new browser window showing both the backend's admin panel and the frontend. Logs from the development containers will be streamed.

Note that both the frontend and the backend support hot reloading. If you make changes to the backend code in backend/, the backend server will restart and apply your changes immediately. The same goes for the frontend.

If you want to open shells to the development containers you may do so by executing

devspace run backend

or

devspace run frontend

respectively. It's also possible to fire one-off commands inside the containers. If you want flake8 to inspect the code quality inside the backend container, you may do so by executing

devspace run backend -- flake8

There are shortcuts for frequent commands (tests & linting) for the backend container. If you stop the logs streaming or open up another terminal window, you may enter

devspace run test

to let the tests run inside the backend container. If you wish to run linting checks (black + flake8), execute

devspace run lint
