Infrastructure

Local Environment

The local environment helps streamline development and CICD integration testing with Twisp running on your own machine.

Starting the environment

The following shell commands can be used to get up and running:

docker pull public.ecr.aws/twisp/local:latest
docker run -p 3000:3000 -p 8080:8080 -p 8081:8081 public.ecr.aws/twisp/local:latest

You should see the startup logs in your terminal. The console should now be available in the browser at http://localhost:3000.

Work through the Twisp tutorial

After starting up your local environment check out the Twisp tutorial for more information on using Twisp.

Environment details

The local Twisp container image includes a number of services and data persistence options. Container images are available for both amd64 and arm64 architectures.

Available services

  • HTTP console port 3000
  • HTTP API port 8080
  • GRPC API port 8081
  • Health check command /healthcheck

Note: the Twisp Local Instance does not require HTTP Authorization headers for access.

Data persistence

  • Set DB_PATH environment variable to -e DB_PATH=/data
  • Mount a volume: -v volume:/data

Account management

  • Execute multi-tenant API calls by posting with a specific X-Twisp-Account-Id HTTP header
  • If an X-Twisp-Account-Id header is not provided, the system will default to X-Twisp-Account-Id: 000000000000
  • The console invokes the API on behalf of the default account
