A dockerfile for Tidbyt Pixlet

This allows you to develop pixlet apps in any host OS, then render and serve those apps within this container.

Uses official golang base image and installs npm 16 specifically.

docker build --no-cache -t pixlet  .

docker run --rm -it -p 8080:8080 pixlet

By default pixlet serves on 127.0.0.1, to expose this to the host container we must change the host IP to 0.0.0.0.

pixlet serve examples/sunrise.star -i 0.0.0.0

Navigate to localhost:8080 on your host machine.

If you are developing a tidbyt pixlet app in a local folder, you can run this container and serve it automatically to port 8080, automatically refreshing with local changes:

docker run --rm -it -p 8080:8080 -v C:\src\pixlet-docker\examples:/srv pixlet pixlet serve -i 0.0.0.0 -w /srv/sports_scores.star

docker run --rm -it -p 8080:8080 -v /usr/src/pixlet-docker/examples:/srv pixlet pixlet serve -i 0.0.0.0 -w /srv/sports_scores.star
