# Developer env The basic starting enviroment will be created using `docker-compose`. This environment will start up the openstack services listed in the compose directory. To start, setup your environment variables. $ cd kolla $ ./tools/genenv.sh The `genenv.sh` script will create an openstack.env file and an openrc file in your current directory. The openstack.env file contains all of your initialized environment variables, which you can edit for a different setup. Next, run the start script. $ ./start.sh The `start.sh` script is responsible for starting the containers using `docker-compose -f up -d`. If you want to start a container set by hand use this template $ docker-compose -f glance-api-registry.yml up -d # Debug You can follow a container's status by doing $ sudo docker ps -a If any of the containers exited you can check the logs by doing $ sudo docker logs $ docker-compose logs If you want to start a individual service like `glance-api` by hand, then use this template. This is a good method to test and troubleshoot an individual container. $ docker run --name glance-api -d \ --net=host --env-file=openstack.env kollaglue/fedora-rdo-glance-api:latest
