The following assumptions are made for local development:
- the project is checked out into
$GOPATH/src/github.com/jippi/hashi-ui
go
in a recent version (I use1.7.3
but older 7.x might also work)node
in a recent version (I use7.2.1
but older versions should work too)yarn
is installed (brew install yarn
on OS X)
I use environment like this for Go development
export GOPATH=$HOME/src/go-lang
export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
mkdir -p ~/src/go-lang/src/github.com/jippi
cd ~/src/go-lang/src/github.com/jippi
git clone git@github.com:jippi/hashi-ui.git
cd hashi-ui
The option to use Vagrant is also an available. Vagrant must be previously installed. See the Vagrant docs for how to get started.
From the root folder, run vagrant up
to create the guest machine with go and the go environment pre-configured.
Once Vagrant has provisioned the virtual machine, run vagrant ssh
to access the ssh session.
Both the frontend/
and the backend/
directory got their own specialized Makefile
.
They share some common commands like install
, build
, clean
and dist-clean
.
The root /Makefile
mirror these commands, and simply run them for you in both directories.
To build the project simply run make -j build
in the root of the project, and both frontend and backend will be
installed and setup for you, including any dependencies needed for a successful build.
make build
will build both the frontend and backend projects. Running the command a 2nd time will not compile anything,
since all binaries will exist in the build output directories.
For continuous workflow, use make -j rebuild
which will remove any build artifact (make clean
) before running make build
.
make rebuild
will also delete the frontend build artifacts, which will cause webpack
to run again to crate the static
HTML, JS and CSS bundles needed to be embedded in the Go binary at compile time. This process can take a while, so if you
don't need to re-bundle new frontend assets in the Go binary, use KEEP_BINDATA_ASSETFS=1 make -j rebuild
which will prevent
the deletion of the binary frontend bundle, and just recompile the Go code.
Run make -j build
in the root directory to get all dependencies and binaries setup and built.
If the work you plan to do only involve the frontend, run a command similar to this to get the Go server API available:
NOMAD_LOG_LEVEL=debug NOMAD_ADDR=http://localhost:4646 ./backend/build/hashi-ui-darwin-amd64
Once the hashi-ui server is running, go to the frontend/
directory and run yarn start
.
Once its running you can access http://0.0.0.0:3333 for the hot-reloading reactjs frontend, which will automatically
update your browser with any JS changes you do in your editor on file save.
If your code involve Go changes as well, a workflow like the following is fairly efficient (from the backend/
) directory
KEEP_BINDATA_ASSETFS=1 make -j rebuild && NOMAD_LOG_LEVEL=debug NOMAD_ADDR=http://localhost:4646 ./build/hashi-ui-darwin-amd64
Project is built using make:
make
The resulting files will be stored in build/
folder:
build/webpack - frontend webapp that can be served by any webserver
build/hashi-ui-<os>-<arch> - hashi-ui binary containing both the backend server and frontend webapp
By default it builds binary for host system. You can cross-compile and build binaries for different systems and architectures as well:
GOBUILD='linux-amd64 windows-386 <GOOS>-<GOARCH>' make
See docs for the whole list of available GOOS
and GOARCH
values.
