This page has an intended audience of developer team members or technical team members looking to install Form.io on their local machine. This will allow for an isolated sandbox instance for investigation and research prior to preparing pull request or code commits

Be aware that CHEFS is based on the opensource Form.io platform.

All sections in the pre requisites section must be followed in order to complete the setup of a local intrance. This includes the appropriate account requests for the API and SSO client installs.

Docker compose is the preferred method as it is an automated process for setting up your environment.

Prerequisites

Pathfinder SSO client

Common Services API Access

This service requires an IDIR account. You can open this link https://getok.nrs.gov.bc.ca/app/requestAccount to request an account after logging in with your IDIR. This will provide you with API client id and secret to the CHES and CDOGS service.

It’s not necessary to immediately obtain access to CHES and CDOGS. If you wanted to take advantage of the document generator and email service in the future then this is where you would do it.

Setup

docker-compose

Docker compose is used to quickly set up the local environment, this is not how the production environment is hosted.
