Self hosting instructions for cdot_rest

[roysomak4]

@davmlaw Are there instructions for self-hosting cdot_rest?

We use cdot as the HGVS data provider for generating HGVS nomenclature using the JSONDataProvider. It works very well! However, given the significant time it takes to load the JSON file for a single variant, we wanted to use the RESTdataprovider. However, due to technical restrictions of our infrastructure where cdot is deployed, we cannot efficiently use the public cdot REST endpoints. Being able to deploy cdot_rest on our local infrastructure will be very helpful.

Thanks!

Hi, here's how I got the cdot.cc server installed:

Hopefully this works for you

Long term I'd like to make a VM snapshots or docker images etc - or even write up better instructions...

Thanks @davmlaw! I will try to deploy it on our environment and let you know. We use kubernetes to host our infrastructure. Happy to share our docker/kubernetes implementation if I am able to deploy the app.
