Development

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

node.js & npm
Ruby (for sanity, install with rvm)
Bundler

Install dependencies

Run the following command from the repository's root folder to install all dependencies.

npm i && bundle install

Development build

Spin up local dev server and livereloading watch task, reachable under https://localhost:1337:

gulp

Deployment

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 [bigchain] you can grab those credentials by using the AWS_PROFILE variable like so:

AWS_PROFILE=bigchain gulp deploy:live

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