# Roulette Wheel ## Warning This role isn't actively maintained. Use it with caution in production environments. ## Overview This role deploys and configures the Roulette Wheel application using Docker Compose. It pulls the latest source code from a Git repository, builds a Docker image from a Node.js base, and starts the application on a user-defined local HTTP port. ## Description Roulette Wheel is a Node.js-based front-end application that is containerized using Docker. The role accomplishes the following: - **Repository Integration:** Automatically clones or updates the application repository from GitHub. - **Dockerfile Management:** Uses a custom Dockerfile (built on a Node.js image) to install dependencies, build the application, and define the startup command. - **Container Deployment:** Integrates with Docker Compose for container orchestration, making it easy to manage the application's lifecycle. ## Features - **Dockerized Deployment:** Packages the application in a Docker container for consistent and isolated runtime. - **Automated Builds:** Uses an automated Docker build process with a dedicated Dockerfile. - **Configurable Ports:** Exposes the application through a customizable host port. - **Git Integration:** Ensures that the application source code is up-to-date by pulling from the specified Git repository. ## Other Resources - [Roulette Wheel on GitHub](https://github.com/p-wojt/roulette-wheel) - [Packaging Front-End Projects into Docker Images (Dev.to)](https://dev.to/ms314006/how-to-package-front-end-projects-into-docker-images-and-use-it-with-webpack-go3) - [Stack Overflow: Dockerfile to Run NodeJS Static Content](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53178820/dockerfile-to-run-nodejs-static-content-in-docker-container) - [Stack Overflow: Invalid Host Header Message with Webpack Dev Server](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43619644/i-am-getting-an-invalid-host-header-message-when-connecting-to-webpack-dev-ser) ## Credits Developed and maintained by **Kevin Veen-Birkenbach**.
