Requirements

• Erlang R17+
• npm

Building

To build the application call: make. This will:

• download the dependencies,
• compile the code,
• copy the dobby_ui_lib nodeJS artefact to the dobby_rest/priv/static/www
• generate an Erlang release,
• generate ssh keys
  • private and public user keys: ida_rsa and id_rsa.pub respectively in the project root directory
  • public and private system keys in the priv/erl_sshd that will be used by the ssh deamon running in the Erlang node
  • authorized_keys file that will already have the previously generated user public key

You may add your own public keys to the authorized_keys file in priv/erl_sshd (remember to rebar generate afterwards).

If you want to connect to the dobby Erlang shell using ssh with a username and password, add or modify the usernames and passwords to the erl_sshd section of rel/files/sys.config.

Running

rel/dobby_allinone/bin/dobby_allinone console

To access the Dobby Visualizer go to http://localhost:8080/static/www/index.html

Connecting via ssh

If you genereated keys in erl_sshd before generating the dobby release, you can connect to the dobby server's Erlang shell using ssh.

ssh 127.0.0.1 -p 11133 -i id_rsa

To exit the Erlang shell obtained via ssh call exit().
