Mini Project 3

Requirements

In order to run this project, you will need to install the following dependencies:

• Docker
• docker-compose (included with Docker)
• GNU/Make

The GNU/Make tool is used to abstract away the build commands, such that they are shorter and easier to type in the CLI.

Usage

To run the system, run the following command:

make run

Simulate a replica manager crash

We leverage the docker and docker compose tool to simulate a replica manager crash and a subsequent reboot.

make simulate-crash

This kills the second replica manager and restarts it after 5 seconds.

Development

To further develop this on your machine, you need to have Golang binaries installed natively, otherwise you can use the VS Code devcontainer that is provided within this project.

Building the server docker image

make build-server-container

Building the client docker image

make build-client-container

Shorthand: build both images

make build

Cleaning up

You can remove the containers with the built images from your local Docker installation

make clean
