[DEPRECATED] Clamshell

Blip's companion mobile web app, used for messaging.

Install

Requirements:

• Node.js
• Reactjs

Clone this repo then install dependencies:

$ npm install

Quick start

Start the development server (in "mock mode") with:

$ source config/mock.sh
$ npm start

Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:3001/.

Config object

The config.app.js file will have some magic constants that look like __FOO__ statements replaced by the value of the corresponding environment variable when the build or development server is run. If you need to add new environment variables, you should also update webpack.config.js with definitions for them, as well as .jshintrc.

Build and deployment

The app is built as a static site in the dist/ directory.

We use Shio to deploy, so we separate the build in two.

Shio's build.sh script will take care of building the app itself with:

$ npm run build-app

Shio's start.sh script then builds the config from environment variables as a separate file with:

$ source config/env.sh
$ npm run build-config

After that, the app is ready to be served using the static web included in this repo:

$ npm run server

You can also build everything at once locally by simply running:

$ source config/mock.sh
$ npm run build
$ npm run server
