⁠Caching & Debugging

If you are experiencing build failures or wish to preform repeated build attempts to debug a problem, you may wish to use the --shell, --reference and --tdb options.

# Pre-download TrinityCore Git repository and database archive.
$ git clone --bare https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore.git trinitycore-cache
$ curl -L -o trinitycore-cache/TDB_full_335.63_2017_04_18.7z \
    https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore/releases/download/TDB335.63/TDB_full_335.63_2017_04_18.7z

# Pull and run the Docker build container, using pre-downloaded sources.
$ docker pull nicolaw/trinitycore
$ mkdir artifacts
$ docker run -it -v "$PWD/artifacts":/artifacts \
                 -v "$PWD/trinitycore-cache":/reference \
                 nicolaw/trinitycore \
                 --shell --verbose --reference=/reference \
                 --tdb file:///reference/TDB_full_335.63_2017_04_18.7z \

Here you are pre-downloading both the TrinityCore database archive files, and Git repository. The --shell option will drop you to a Bash shell prompt if the build fails if you interrupt the build script by pressing Control-C.

⁠Running TrinityCore After Compilation

Once you have built TrinityCore, and have a build artifact directory with lots of yummy binaries and SQL files, you will probably want to start up a TrinityCore server!

Try using the docker-compose.yaml profile at https://github.com/neechbear/trinitycore/blob/master/docker/docker-compose.yaml⁠.

Full instructions on what to do next can be found in the README.md at https://github.com/neechbear/trinitycore/blob/master/docker/README.md⁠.
