# docker-login is only needed the first time; after this your credentials will be cached
docker login dockerreg.alfresco.com
docker pull dockerreg.alfresco.com/platform-distribution:api-latest
docker-compose up

Note: for complete installation on Windows please review the instructions here: Windows installation

to clean up afterwards

docker-compose rm

If you are using the local build you must also have configured your npm to use our private registry, where the components are published. Currently the registry can only be accessed from Alfresco's London and Maidenhead offices.

npm set registry http://devproducts.alfresco.me:4873

Note this is a global setting which will apply to all your npm projects. You can use npm config delete registry to remove the setting once you no longer need it, or you can temporarily comment out the line in your .npmrc file.

Building and running

Local build

1 Install dependencies

npm install

2 Fast build and watch for dev purposes

npm start

start script also includes live reload and watchers for all the .ts files. TypeScript watchers are also configured for node_modules folder within demo shell and provide live reload for all the component libraries as well.

Docker build

A Dockerfile is provided as part of the demo-shell. This can be used to build a local image using the current code that you have in your development environment. The node_modules folder will not be copied over, instead npm install is executed during the build to bring in the required dependencies from the registry, which ensures that you start from a clean base.

Another advantage is that you do not need to have Node and npm installed locally, since these are already included with the base image.

docker build -t demo-shell --rm .
docker run -it --rm --name demo-shell-ng2 -p 3000 demo-shell

When you are done testing you can remove the image that you created

docker rmi demo-shell

###Multi-language To support a new language you need to create your language file (.json) and add it to i18n/ folder.

{
        "username" : "Username",
        "input-required-message": "Required",
        "input-min-message": "Your username needs to be at least 4 characters.",
        "login-button": "Login"
}

Directory structure:

.
├── i18n/
│   ├── en.json
│   ├── it.json
│   └── fr.json
