Welcome to Crowbar Angular Prototype

Build Status

Setting up a development environment with Docker

This is an optional way to develop on crowbar-ui within a contained environment. The main benefit is to have some reusable and host-independent environment to develop on.

  1. make sure docker is installed and the docker daemon is running.

    for installation details see: https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/

  2. build the image from the Dockerfile:

docker build -t crowbar-ui .
  1. run the container (pwd should be your git clone):
docker run -d --name "crowbar-ui_container" -v $(pwd)/assets:/crowbar-ui/assets -v $(pwd)/routes:/crowbar-ui/routes -p 3000:3000 crowbar-ui
  1. work on the assets folder in your local git clone and the changes will be immediately visible in the browser. also if you are changing the ./routes directory the server inside the container gets restarted by nodemon

Running the test suite inside the container

docker exec -ti crowbar-ui_container npm test

First steps to have the app running locally for PRODUCTION ENV only:

1 - Clone the app from GitHub:

git@github.com:crowbar/crowbar-ui.git

2 - Locate yourself into the recently created folder:

cd crowbar-ui

Make sure you have Node.js installed in your machine with NPM, if not, please proceed to install it before continuing with the following steps. (more info: https://nodejs.org/en/download/)

3 - Let npm install all the needed packages:

npm install

4 - Some packages, like gulp, needs to be installed globally to be available through the console. Let's install them:

sudo npm install -g gulp

5 - You will need to have Bower installed globally in your machine:

npm install -g bower

6 - Let bower fetch all our dependencies:

NODE_ENV=production bower install

7 - Let Gulp build the public folder for your assets (it will keep watching for changes, so yes, after this, you are ready to start making changes in the front-end), note that this will exit with a warning if cloud.config.json is missing (it will continue to run if NODE_ENV is not set to production):

NODE_ENV=production gulp

8 - Update the tested_step variable in routes/api/upgrade.js depending on the scenario you want to test. This is used to properly fill the mocked status API response.

9 - Run the server at http://localhost:3000 with (you will need to restart it every time you make changes in the backend, but not in the layout or front-end in general):

NODE_ENV=production npm start

Need Development ENV? Perform the following replacing the steps 6, 7, and 8:

1 - Everytime you update master from new PR merged into it, make sure you have all the latest libraries from package.json by running

npm install

2 - and then, in a new terminal:

bower install && gulp

to compile all your assets again and leave it watching your changes.

Latest build/run info:

The most up to date source of setup information is .travis.yml in the base folder, as this builds/runs the test suite and must be up to date. Check there first if you encounter any issues with running the build locally

That's it fellas! .. enjoy coding!
