Deployed app

View the deployed app at chrisvaillancourt.io

Local development

Running locally requires node v18.17.x and pnpm. You can use pnpm to control your node version by running pnpm env use --global lts.

Create environment variables by copying the .env-example file.

Development without docker

It's possible to run this app without Docker. Run all commands from the root of the project, from a terminal:

Command Action
pnpm install Installs dependencies
pnpm dev Starts local dev server at localhost:4321
pnpm build Build your production site to ./dist/
pnpm preview Preview your build locally, before deploying
pnpm astro ... Run CLI commands like astro add, astro preview
pnpm astro --help Get help using the Astro CLI
pnpm tsc Run the TypeScript compiler with any compiler option

Testing

This project uses playwright for e2e testing. To start playwright's codegen tool, run: pnpm playwright codegen http://localhost:4321/

Specifying e2e tests

To run a specific test, pass the path to the test file: pnpm playwright test <path_to_test>. For example, pnpm playwright test e2e/components/ThemeToggle.spec.ts

Running tests against deployed site

By default, playwright sets the base URL for tests using the environment variable APP_URL. We set this from the .env file but we can override variables by passing them in at runtime with VARIABLE_NAME=VALUE syntax. To run e2e tests against the production site, we can run APP_URL=https://chrisvaillancourt.io/ pnpm test:e2e.

Downloading playwright browsers

Playwright doesn't automatically download browsers for running tests. To download browsers:

  1. install project dependencies: pnpm i
  2. install playwright browsers: pnpm dlx playwright install --with-deps

Deployment

First, build the site and preview it so we can run e2e tests against the production build. To do this:

  1. Install dependencies by running pnpm i
  2. Build the site by running pnpm build
  3. Start the preview server by running pnpm preview
  4. Run the e2e test suite with pnpm test:e2e

If all tests pass, stop the preview server and deploy the built site by running pnpm run deploy. Follow the CLI instructions to finish the deployment.

Development with docker

Misc. docker commands

To build the container, run docker build . -t website:latest. To run the image and expose port: docker run -p 4321:4321 website Run the built container with: docker run website:latest pnpm build To run and build the compose project: docker compose up --build. To run a production build, run: docker build -t website . && docker run website pnpm run build. To run a production build and deploy the build: docker build -t website . && docker run website pnpm run build && pnpm run deploy

VS Code dev container

To use a dev container, open the project root in VS Code and open the command pallet and select Dev Containers: Reopen in container. VS Code will build the container and configure the dev environment.

Note: the container automatically installs dependencies after it's created but may run into an error copying files from the PNPM store. If the initial install throws an error, re-run the install with pnpm i. Rerunning the install command typically resolves the issue.

After the dev container starts and installs dependencies, run the local dev server by running pnpm dev from the dev container.
