gatsby-pie

Gatsby rework of the pie website.

Setup

After pulling the repo add the environment variables (note these are not here after pulling from the repo because .env files are part of the .gitignore). There are a few that are used for the mail chimp form, but these are not really needed for local development. However, what will be needed will the the Contentful api key. To get it head over to Contentful and click on the settings dropdown tab on the navbar. Under the header Space Settings, click on the one that says API keys. There should be two keys listed, click on the PieWebsite one. Then you want to copy to clipboard the Content Delivery API - access token. Back in your website2 files, make a new file called .env.development inside the pie-website directory. Then put inside the following:

CONTENTFUL_API_KEY=Contentful_API_Key

Replacing Contentful_API_Key with what you grabbed from Contentful.

Note: the commands for setup use npm, so if you do not have it run the command npm install -g npm
More on that here

Next, install the Gatsby CLI globally. cd into the project folder and run the following:

npm install -g gatsby-cli

Then cd into pie-website, install the dependancies and boot up the server:

cd pie-website
npm install
npm start

Note: this will take a long time probably - there are some fat things to install.

The site is now running at http://localhost:8000
