GitHub Codespaces

This repository is configured to use GitHub Codespaces to provide a complete, cloud-based development environment.

How It Works

The configuration is defined in the .devcontainer/devcontainer.json file. This file instructs GitHub Codespaces to:

1. Use the Docker Environment: It references our docker-compose.yml file to spin up the same development environment that you would use locally.
2. Install VS Code Extensions: It automatically installs a few recommended Visual Studio Code extensions (Docker and GitLens) to enhance the development experience.

Getting Started

To get started with Codespaces:

1. Click the “Code” button at the top of the repository page.
2. Select the “Codespaces” tab.
3. Click “Create codespace on main”.

GitHub will prepare your cloud environment, and you will be taken to a web-based version of VS Code, fully configured and ready to go. The terminal within VS Code will be inside the running development container.

How to Serve the “pong” Page on Port 80 in a New GitHub Codespace

1. Open a Codespace:
   • Go to your repository on GitHub.
   • Click the Code button, select the Codespaces tab, and create a new Codespace.
2. Start NGINX in the Dev Container:
   • Open the integrated terminal in VS Code.
   • Run:

     service nginx start
     

3. Manually Forward Port 80:
   • Open the PORTS tab (bottom panel, tiny icon).
   • Click the Forward a Port button (+ icon).
   • Enter 80 as the port number and confirm.
   • The url to your codespace instance will now appear in the ‘Forwarded Ports’ column
4. Open the “pong” Page:
   • Copy the forwarded URL shown in the PORTS tab (it will look like https://<codespace-name>-80.app.github.dev/).
   • Open it in your browser:

     "$BROWSER" https://<codespace-name>-80.app.github.dev/
     

You should now see the word pong
