Development
You need to have the following tools installed on your development machine before moving on:
- node.js & npm
- (optional) use Yarn instead of npm for faster dependency installations
- 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
or
yarn && bundle install
Development build
Spin up local dev server and livereloading watch task, reachable under https://localhost:1337:
gulp
Continuous Delivery
The site gets built & deployed automatically via Travis under the following conditions:
- every push builds the site
- every push to the master branch initiates a live deployment
- every pull request initiates a beta deployment
Manual 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.
Staging build & beta deployment
The staging build is essentially a full production build but it 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
