Step 2: Installing/Updating Magellan Builder

Magellan Builder is the Foster Moore tool for configuring, debugging and testing Verne applications. It is bundled with Docker Desktop and Stratus – both of which are required for Verne configuration.

Note: It is important that you have the latest version of Magellan and stratus-server installed for the testing lessons. For an earlier version of Magellan installed you may need to uninstall and re-install the latest version. You can check for the latest Magellan version here. Similarly if you have an earlier version of stratus installed you will need to update Stratus-Server to the latest version. The link should provided the latest version.

If you have not installed Magellan previously or want to reinstall it, then please read and follow the instructions here.

Set the training path mentioned at the start of this page as the scan path so Magellan loads your new superhero register.

Step 3: Setting Up Your Super Hero Project

In this step you are going to setup Stratus which is your running Verne – Catalyst Cloud Server and Magellan Builder to configure and run the super hero register. See how to set up a new project here

Step 4: Start your Super Hero Register

An application configured using Verne is served using the Stratus server and so to start the superhero register you have to Start the Stratus Server.

Step 5: Test your Application Running

Your new super hero registry should now be running locally.

Step 6: Switch branches using Magellan

Now that Magellan is up and running let’s select the first lesson for testing (Lesson 2, because Lesson 1 there is no service built for testing).
