Development
For development purposes you can start WendzelNNTPd on your host system. If you are using an unsupported operating system or just not run WenzdelNNTPd on your host system, you can use the provided Dockerfiles to run WendzelNNTPd in a Docker container.
Initial setup
When you are on a UNIX-based system (like macOS) you can use the provided make commands:
$ make docker-dev-build
$ make docker-dev-run
To stop the Docker container, you can use the following command:
$ make docker-dev-stop
If you are not on a UNIX-based system (like Windows) use the following native docker commands:
$ docker build -f ./docker/Dockerfile -t wendzelnntpd-dev:latest .
$ docker run --name wendzelnntpd-dev --rm -it \
-p 118:118 -p 119:119 -p 563:563 -p 564:564 \
-v ${PWD}:/wendzelnntpd \
-v wendzelnntpd_data:/var/spool/news/wendzelnntpd \
wendzelnntpd-dev:latest
To stop the Docker container you can use the following command:
$ docker stop wendzelnntpd-dev
Test new code
The container is built without code included. The code is automatically mounted as volume into the container. After each change of source code, the application is compiled again.
Edit configure or Makefile
This project uses autoconf
to generate the configure script from
configure.ac. The files configure, aclocal.m4, config.guess,
config.sub and install-sh are autogenerated. Do not edit them
directly, but regenerate them with autoreconf -fi
after editing
configure.ac or a macro in the m4 directory.
The Makefile is generated by the configure script from the Makefile.in.
