Documentation

Have a look at the docs/ folder.

Development

The whole website is a Jekyll site with a Gulp-based build pipeline in front of it.

Prerequisites

You need to have the following tools installed on your development machine before moving on:

Get up and running

Run the following command from the repository's root folder to clone this repository, install all dependencies, and spin up local dev server reachable under http://localhost:1337:

git clone git@github.com:bigchaindb/site.git
cd site/
npm i && bundle install

# development build and dev server
gulp

Additionally, you can execute those commands to test the actual build output:

# full production build
gulp build --production

# build preventing search engine indexing & Google Analytics tracking
gulp build --staging

All builds are output into the _dist/ folder. Use a tool like serve to inspect a local build in your browser:

serve -s _dist

Continuous deployment: always be shipping

shipping

The site gets built & deployed automatically via Travis. This is the preferred way of deployment, it makes sure the site is always deployed with fresh dependencies and only after a successful build.

Build & deployment happens under the following conditions on Travis:

  • every push builds the site
  • live deployment: every push to the master branch initiates a live deployment
  • beta deployment: every new pull request and every subsequent push to it initiates a beta deployment

Manual deployment

For emergency live deployments or beta & gamma deployments, the manual method can be used. The site is hosted in an S3 bucket and gets deployed via a gulp task.

Prerequisite: authentication

To deploy the site, you must authenticate yourself against the AWS API with your AWS credentials. Get your AWS access key and secret and add them to ~/.aws/credentials:

[default]
aws_access_key_id = <YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID>
aws_secret_access_key = <YOUR_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY>

This is all that is needed to authenticate with AWS if you've setup your credentials as the default profile.

If you've set them up as another profile, say [bigchaindb] you can grab those credentials by using the AWS_PROFILE variable like so:

AWS_PROFILE=bigchaindb gulp deploy --live

In case that you get authentication errors or need an alternative way to authenticate with AWS, check out the AWS documentation.

Staging build & beta deployment

The staging build is a full production build but prevents search engine indexing & Google Analytics tracking.

# make sure your local npm packages & gems are up to date
npm update && bundle update

# make staging build in /_dist
gulp build --staging

# deploy contents of /_dist to beta
gulp deploy --beta

There's also a second beta deployment target called gamma under http://gamma.bigchaindb.com:

# build preventing search engine indexing & Google Analytics tracking
gulp build --staging

# deploy contents of /_dist to gamma
gulp deploy --gamma

Production build & live deployment

# make sure your local npm packages & gems are up to date
npm update && bundle update

# make production build in /_dist
gulp build --production

# deploy contents of /_dist to live
gulp deploy --live

Coding conventions

(S)CSS

Follows stylelint-config-bigchaindb which itself extends stylelint-config-standard.

Lint with stylelint in your editor or run:

npm test

JavaScript

It's a wild mess right now between old school vanilla js, jQuery and some ES2015 features. Don't bother with the old stuff unless dependency updates break it.

New js should follow eslint-config-ascribe. Linting in this repo is not setup for it yet.
