drivent-front

Front-end for Driven.t, an event management solution.

About

Driven.t is a web browser application with which you can manage every single aspect of your event.

How to run for development

1. Clone this repository
2. Install all dependencies

npm i

3. Populate .env file based on .env.example. REACT_APP_API_BASE_URL should point to your API server (driven.t-back)

4. Run the back-end in a development environment:

npm run start

Building and starting for production

npm run build
npm start

Running application locally or inside docker

.env.development and .env.test must be changed if you and to run the application locally or inside docker. You can populate files based on .env.example file, but you need to consider the following:

• Running application locally (postgres and node):

Add your postgres credentials and make sure to create given database before running the application.

• Running application inside docker (postgres and node):

Set POSTGRES_HOST to drivent-postgres-development for .env.development and drivent-postgres-test for .env.test file. It is the name of the postgres container inside docker-compose file. Docker Compose will start the postgres container for you, create the database and host alias for you.

• Running application locally (node) but postgres is running inside docker:

Set POSTGRES_HOST to localhost for .env.development and localhost for .env.test file. Docker compose is configured to expose postgres container to your localhost.

What to do when add new ENV VARIABLES

Please notice that every ENV that should be available on browser should start with REACT_APP_ prefix. There are several things you need to do when you add new ENV VARIABLES:

• Add them to .env.example file
• Add them to your local .env file
• Add them to your docker-compose.yml file (just the name, not the value). Only envs listed in the environment section will be exposed to your docker container.
• Add them (prod version) to your github repo secrets. They will be used to generate the .env file on deploy.
