Dev Environment on Debian 11

Install Node

Budibase requires a recent version of node (14+):

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_16.x | sudo bash -
apt -y install nodejs
node -v

Install npm requirements

npm install -g yarn jest lerna

Install Docker and Docker Compose

apt install docker.io
pip3 install docker-compose

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/Budibase/budibase.git

Check Versions

This setup process was tested on Debian 11 (bullseye) with version numbers show below. Your mileage may vary using anything else.

  • Docker: 20.10.5
  • Docker-Compose: 1.29.2
  • Node: v16.15.1
  • Yarn: 1.22.19
  • Lerna: 5.1.4

Build

cd budibase
yarn setup

The yarn setup command runs several build steps i.e.

node ./hosting/scripts/setup.js && yarn && yarn bootstrap && yarn build && yarn dev

So this command will actually run the application in dev mode. It creates .env files under ./packages/server and ./packages/worker and runs docker containers for each service via docker-compose.

The dev version will be available on port 10000 i.e.

http://127.0.0.1:10000/builder/admin
