Testing InvenioRDM

An InvenioRDM instance that can be run locally for testing pass-docker. Note: This is intended for testing a local instance of pass-docker and is not meant for Production use.

The pass-docker-invenio-rdm directory was created following these instructions: InvenioRDM Installation

Technologies Utilized

• Python v3.8 or greater installed.

• The invenio-cli python tool installed and available in your PATH: InvenioRDM CLI Installation

Running the InvenioRDM Instance

Run the following commands in order to start the InvenioRDM instance:

./build.sh
./start.sh

The above commands starts by building the application docker image, once the docker image has been built the commands will start the application and its related services (database, Elasticsearch, Redis and RabbitMQ). The build and boot process will take time to complete. The first time the commands run the docker images will need to be downloaded, the inital downloading of docker images will result in the commands taking longer to complete.
