Static server that hosts Firefox Account sign up, sign in, email verification, etc. flows.

Follow the instructions on: fxa-local-dev

The above link helps to install the following pre-requisites, and set up a development environment.

• node 0.10.x
• npm
• Grunt
• libgmp
• fxa-local-dev - Please note that this is the preferred way of contributing to Firefox Accounts.

Make sure that fxa-local-dev servers are running. The fxa-content-server will listen on http://127.0.0.1:3030 by default.

Note: If you have issues with npm install please update to npm 2.0+ using npm install -g npm@2 (Issue #1594)

To run the content server via Docker, three steps are required:

$ docker build --rm -t mozilla/fxa_content_server .
$ docker run --rm -v $PWD:/opt/fxa mozilla/fxa_content_server npm install
$ docker run -it --rm -v $PWD:/opt/fxa --net=host mozilla/fxa_content_server

This method shares the codebase into the running container so that you can install npm and various modules required by package.json. It then runs FxA content server in a container, while allowing you to use your IDE of choice from your normal desktop environment to develop code.

Be sure to copy server/config/local.json-dist to server/config/local.json per usual before the final docker invocation to run the service.

Note to boot2docker users: you must edit your server/config/local.json to use the correct IP of your boot2docker VM. Check with the command: boot2docker ip

Then replace the public_url IP address in local.json that reads: "public_url": "http://127.0.0.1:3030" with the IP that you noted above. It should be something like 192.168.59.103.

To stop the container, first try CTRL+C. If that does not work, run docker ps |grep fxa_content_server to get the hexadecimal Container ID (the first column of output). Run docker stop nnnnnnnnnnnn where the nnnn part is the Container ID.

• Java JDK or JRE (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)
• Selenium Server 2.46.0 (Download)

• Run Selenium Server

e.g. in shell form:

java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.46.0.jar 

To run tests locally with Selenium:

npm test

To change the default auth server edit server/config/*.json on your deployed instance.

{
  "fxaccount_url": "http://your.auth.server.here.org"
}

Note that testing with Selenium via Docker does not work at present, so all testing must be carried out via your normal operating system's npm & Java tooling.

Grunt is used to run common tasks to build, test, and run local servers.
