MoodleNet Mock server

Simple containerised mock of a MoodleNet instance for testing purposes. This mock must use HTTPS and supports both localhost TLS (host-to-container TLS) and containerised TLS (container-to-container TLS).

Certs must be generated outside the container and made accessible to the running container via a docker volume. This should support both simple localhost use cases and docker compose environments.

Set up for local development (host-to-container TLS)

  1. Get mkcert. This handles the creation of development certs.
  2. Set up the test host e.g. 'moodlenet.test' in your /etc/hosts file: 
    127.0.0.1 localhost moodlenet.test
  3. Build the container with TLS enabled for that same host (and localhost): 
    ./build.sh localhost moodlenet.test
  4. Run the container (this command is output at the end of the build process) 
    docker run -di -p 443:443 -v "$(pwd)/certs":/opt/ssl/certs moodlenet-mock
  5. Access the mock server at https://moodlenet.test

Manual set up for fully containerised development (container-to-container TLS)

  1. Generate certs in a host directory. Certs can be created using mkcert, openssl, and probably a range of other tools. Certs can be located anywhere (a volume is used at runtime). The following cert files must be present:
    1. 'ca.crt' (the root ca).
      • E.g. certs/ca.crt
    2. 'moodlenet.p12' (the PKCS12 cert store containing the cert and key for the relevant hosts).
      • E.g. certs/moodlenet.p12
  2. Build the container 
    docker build -t moodlenet-mock:latest .
  3. Run the container passing in certs (change the host's certs dir as needed) 
    docker run -p 443:443 -v "$(pwd)/certs":/opt/ssl/certs moodlenet-mock

Running the Symfony app locally (non-docker option)

Running the app locally can be useful for things like debugging, since the container isn't currently set up for xdebug. This uses the build script only to generate the certs. Though the container is built too, it's not needed.

  1. Build with TLS enabled (this ensures we have the certs needed by symfony cli and only needs to be run once to ensure these exist): 
    ./build.sh localhost moodlenet.test
  2. Go to the app dir 
    cd app
  3. Check requirements 
    symfony check:requirements
  4. Install 
    composer install
  5. Run the app 
    symfony server:start --port=8080 --p12=../certs/moodlenet.p12
