For an overview of the project structure please refer to the Gatsby documentation - Building with Components.

Requirements

• Docker 17.05 or later

Alternatively you can use a recent version of Node.js and Yarn - however Docker is the preferred environment as it matches CI and production environments.

Install

Clone the git repository:

git clone [email protected]:CivicActions/civicactions.com.git

Go to the top level directory:

cd civicactions.com

Source an activate script. This will make CLI tools (running in Docker) available on your terminal and also download NPM dependencies.

. bin/activate

Fire up the development server:

yarn develop

You should see the site by going to http://localhost:8000/ in your browser. To turn off the server run Ctrl + C

To see gatsby sub-commands available run:

gatsby

To see other scripts useful for development:

yarn run

You can also test a full build which will run with some additional compression steps and serve the site with the Caddy web server, albeit without hot reloading.

fullbuild

You should see the site by going to http://localhost:8000/ in your browser. To turn off the server run Ctrl + C

To stop development and use your local versions of CLI tools run:

deactivate

If you encounter problems you can force a rebuild by deleting the sandbox and/or full images and reactivate:

deactivate
docker rmi -f home-sandbox home-full
. bin/activate
