Setting up RomM for development

Docker provides a quick and easy way to get started with RomM by encapsulating all dependencies within Docker containers. This guide will walk you through the process of setting up RomM for development using Docker.

Environment setup

Create the mock structure with at least one rom and empty config for manual testing

mkdir -p romm_mock/library/roms/switch
touch romm_mock/library/roms/switch/metroid.xci
mkdir -p romm_mock/resources
mkdir -p romm_mock/assets
mkdir -p romm_mock/config
touch romm_mock/config/config.yml

Copy env.template to .env and fill the variables

cp env.template .env
ROMM_BASE_PATH=/app/romm
DEV_MODE=true

Build the image

docker compose build  # or `docker compose build --no-cache` to rebuild from scratch

Spin up the Docker containers

docker compose up -d

And you're done! You can access the app at http://localhost:3000. Any changes made to the code will be automatically reflected in the app thanks to the volume mounts.
