99	Development environment

For setting up the development environment, tailchat provides a very simple and fast way:

Use Docker to quickly build a dependent environment

mongodb

docker run -d --name mongo -p 27017:27017 mongo:4

redis

docker run -d --name redis -p 6379:6379 redis

minio

docker run -d \
  -p 19000:9000 \
  -p 19001:9001 \
  --name minio \
  -e "MINIO_ROOT_USER=tailchat" \
  -e "MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=com.msgbyte.tailchat" \
  minio/minio server /data --console-address ":9001"

Start the development server

pnpm install
pnpm dev

You can edit the configuration of server/.env to your own relevant context

The file can be started from server/.env.example

Now you can preview your server in http://localhost:11011
