Cannot connect to builder

Cannot connect to builder

At a glance

The post describes an error encountered while loading a Prisma schema file, and the comments discuss the issue. Community members suggest using Docker on Windows Server, but note that the recommended approach is to use devcontainers with Visual Studio Code on Linux or macOS. There is a discussion around potential workarounds for Windows, but the community members acknowledge they are not familiar with Docker on Windows.

The community members suggest that if the community member can find a way to make it work on Windows, they should document and share their knowledge, potentially by writing an article on a site like Dev.to. There is also a discussion around accessing the application from outside the server, with the community members indicating it is intended for local usage only.

Towards the end, the community member indicates they have the application fully working and asks about exporting their current projects to work in their local version. The community members provide suggestions, noting that in the future, import/export functionality will be added to allow transferring projects.

But I cant view the site

The recommended way is using devcontainers with vscode

And ideally linux or mac os

Caz non of us is using windows

Is there a workaround for docker?
I cannot install linux

Maybe there is but we are not familiar with windows and how docker works there

Ok, thank you!

If I can find a way to make this work well on windows, what way can I share that knowledge?

You can write and article somewhere, we will repost in socials
Here's a good place https://dev.to/

Thanks,
Enjoy the rest of your day!

one more thing, when I get everything setup,
How do I access the url outside of my server?

This is intended for local usage only 🙂

Oh, I assume the answer is the same even if I have a domain name?

I atleast need the builder ui to be on my main desktop

This is due limited resources we have. We are only 3 devs and cannot invest much time into support. Especially where we don't have an expertise.

Though we guarantee everything related to our cloud

Wait, if its just localhost.
Can't I just forward the port and access it on my local network?

It should just be a basic HTTP connection

I guess you could if you know how

I'll document everything and post the guide when I'm finished (with webstudio ofc)

I can connect on the server itself, but I don't know where the "secret" is to log in

It's fully working!
It there a way to export my current projects to work in my local version?

Nice!

You can copy paste each page content

Or alternatively export with CLI and align .webstudio/data.json with what inside of db though it's not 1:1 at the moment

In the future we will add import/export ability to allow transferring projects

You have been an amazing help tysm!
