Start a Recap.Dev Server

recap.dev server is available as a docker image so it's easy to start it wherever you host your applications. It's also available as an AMI so it's easier to start using recap.dev on AWS.

Using a Docker Image#

Recap.Dev server is available as a docker image at Docker Hub.

There are only two prerequisites to start a recap.dev docker image on your server:

  • docker
  • docker-compose

We recommend starting with the latest docker-compose.yml published in the recap.dev server repository.

To start your recap.dev server just type in two following commands:

curl -o docker-compose.yaml https://raw.githubusercontent.com/infinite-cat/recap.dev-server/master/docker-compose.yml

This command will download recommended docker-compose.yml to your current directory

docker-compose up -d

This command will start a recap.dev server in a detached mode.

Default UI port is 8081 and default tracing port is 8080.

Using AWS AMI#

  1. Go to AWS console

  2. Go to EC2

  3. Click launch and search community AMIs for the latest recap.dev AMI

  4. Default UI port is 8081 and default tracing port is 8080. Make them available through a security group settings to your team and your applications.

Next step is tracing your application
