Hi James! It's a good initiative. I agree build instructions need to be refactored and turned into easier to follow. I have always fired Postgres, Cassandra, ActiveMQ and Eureka from Docker as I find it much easier (cd fineract-cn-docker-compose/external-tools followed by docker-compose up) Ideally this option should also be added to the build instructions.
> define what .lite actually means, I think it merely loads the customer micro service on top of the basic microservices. Confirm? Lite mode is documented here: https://github.com/apache/fineract-cn-demo-server#demoserverlite-truefalse After reading this block I remembered that I refactored this part (introduced more modes to make it even more confuzing). I found now that my pull request is still up and has never been merged: https://github.com/apache/fineract-cn-demo-server/pull/33/files I think it would be worth to take this in as it simplifies a bit. > ERROR: relation "khepri_beats" does not exist at character 103 This is normal and the error message will go away once you provision rhythm (step 02.02 in Postman scripts). I once tried to add a better explanation for the error message: https://github.com/apache/fineract-cn-rhythm/pull/15/files Kind regards Juhan Kontakt James Dailey (<[email protected]>) kirjutas kuupäeval T, 19. november 2019 kell 18:32: > Devs > > @Vishwas Babu <[email protected]> > > I'm going through the instructions for building the fineract-CN project > locally. > > https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FINERACT/How+To+Build+Apache+Fineract+CN > > I'd like to get your feedback and then I'll make some changes. > > I think first thing I note is that the versions of pre-requisite software > are not specified, and given that I'm starting with a clean install I'm > using only the latest.
