Open eClass is a free, open-source platform used for online learning and course management. In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Open eClass on your macOS computer.
Before we begin, ensure that your computer meets the following requirements:
Visit the official Open eClass website at https://www.openeclass.org/, click on the "Download" button, and select the macOS Version.
Double-click the Docker Desktop download file you just downloaded, and follow the installation instructions provided.
Once Docker Desktop is installed, open your terminal and create a new Docker machine by running the following command:
docker-machine create --driver virtualbox default
This will create a Docker machine named "default" using the virtualbox driver.
Next, configure Docker by setting the environment variables using the command:
eval $(docker-machine env default)
This command will configure Docker to use the "default" Docker machine.
Run the following command to start Open eClass:
docker run --name openeclass -d -p 80:80 openeclass/openeclass
This command will download the Open eClass image, start a new container named "openeclass", map port 80 of the container to port 80 of the host machine, and run the container in the background.
Open eClass is now installed and running on your macOS computer. To access it, open your web browser and navigate to:
http://localhost/
You should now see the Open eClass login page. From here, you can log in and start using Open eClass.
