Instructions

Creating Codespace

Head over to your codespaces section in GitHub and create a codespace for {you_chatwoot_repo}:{your_branch}
GitHub will open up the codespace in VSCode once the build finishes

Development Workflow

start rails server by running overmind start -f Procfile.dev
load the public URL for port 3000, and your chatwoot instance will be available to test the changes

Notes

You can access the emails using the public URL for Mailhog (port 8025)
if the public URL fails to load. In codespace port mapping, remove the existing mapping for the port. Add the port again. Make it public and retry again
When using a ruby debugger, use overmind connect backend, or overmind connect worker
if you see webpack manifest error, wait a minute for the asset complication to finish
if you face issues with overmind start with webpacker, run export NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider in console
