# Docker Registry Operations  
./chorus.sh login          # Login to Docker registry
./chorus.sh build          # Build and push all images to registry
./chorus.sh pull           # Pull latest images from registry

# Individual Component Builds
./build-and-push.sh website        # Build and push website only
./build-and-push.sh whoosh-backend # Build and push WHOOSH backend only
./build-and-push.sh bzzz           # Build and push BZZZ coordinator only

# Production Deployment
./chorus.sh deploy         # Deploy to Docker Swarm (production)
./chorus.sh undeploy       # Remove from Docker Swarm

# Development & Maintenance
./chorus.sh update         # Update submodules to latest
./chorus.sh logs [service] # View logs
./chorus.sh health         # Check service health
./chorus.sh clean          # Clean up resources

# First-time Setup
./chorus.sh init           # Initialize git submodules

⚙️ Configuration

Environment Variables

Key configuration options in docker-compose.yml:

  • Database: DATABASE_URL, POSTGRES_*
  • Redis: REDIS_URL
  • CORS: CORS_ORIGINS
  • Logging: LOG_LEVEL
  • Environment: ENVIRONMENT (development/production)

Adding New Agents

Edit agent configurations in modules/whoosh/config/whoosh.yaml:

whoosh:
  agents:
    my_agent:
      name: "My Agent"
      endpoint: "http://192.168.1.100:11434"
      model: "llama3.1"
      specialization: "coding"
      capabilities: ["python", "javascript"]

🔧 Development Setup

Prerequisites

  • Docker and Docker Compose
  • Git
  • 8GB+ RAM recommended
  • Access to Ollama agents on network

First-Time Setup

# Clone with submodules
git clone --recursive <repository-url>
cd chorus.services

# Or initialize submodules if already cloned
./chorus.sh init

# Login to Docker registry
./chorus.sh login

# Build and push all images to registry
./chorus.sh build

# Start services
./chorus.sh start

Development Workflow

# Development mode (local builds, live reloading)
./chorus.sh dev

# Update submodules to latest
./chorus.sh update

# Rebuild and push after changes
./chorus.sh build

# Pull latest images from registry
./chorus.sh pull

# View logs during development
./chorus.sh logs

# Check service health
./chorus.sh health

# Restart after changes

🚀 Git Submodules Guide

CHORUS Services uses git submodules to integrate independent components:

Basic Submodule Commands

# Initialize submodules (first time)
git submodule init
git submodule update

# Update to latest commits
git submodule update --remote

# Check submodule status
git submodule status

# Enter a submodule to work on it
cd modules/whoosh
git checkout main
# Make changes, commit, push

# Return to main project and commit submodule updates
cd ../..
git add modules/whoosh
git commit -m "Update whoosh submodule"

Working with Submodules

  • Each submodule is an independent git repository
  • Changes within submodules must be committed in the submodule first
  • Parent project tracks specific commits of each submodule
  • Use ./chorus.sh update to pull latest changes from all submodules

📊 Monitoring & Metrics

  • Agent Performance: Response time, throughput, availability
  • Context Management: Search performance, storage efficiency
  • P2P Network: Peer connectivity, message latency

Grafana Dashboards

  • CHORUS Overview: Platform-wide health and metrics
  • Agent Performance: Individual agent monitoring
  • Context Analytics: SLURP usage and performance
  • Network Health: BZZZ P2P network monitoring
