relaxed-react-webapp-poc

Simple React web application, designed to synchronise and display content from Drupal via PouchDB and RELAXed.

Usage

Installation

1. Install Drupal 8 PoC and CouchDB.
2. Create some content and replicate it into CouchDB.
3. Customise src/config.js with the access details for your CouchDB server.
4. Install Node.js, version 5.x or 4.2.x. If you're using Homebrew on OS X, this can be accomplished with a simple brew install node
5. Run npm install to install required dependencies. This will take a while.
6. Run npm install -g nodemon to install Nodemon.
7. Run npm run start to compile the app and host it on a bundled server. This server supports hot reloading, so any code changes should be reflected automatically without having to reload the entire application.
8. Open http://localhost:1849 in a browser to view the app.

Testing

1. Do installation steps 1-6, if you did not do so already.
2. Run npm run test to run the test suite.

Development

While developing, you can use npm run dev in place of npm run start to configure the app in development mode.

You can also run npm run test:dev in a separate shell to automatically run the tests whenever the code changes.

React Developer Tools

The React Developer Tools is a browser plugin for Firefox or Chrome that will let you peek into React component state, very helpful while debugging.
