React (react-router, redux) universal hot boilerplate

High customizable production-ready React (react-router, redux) environment with live-editing. Live editing (webpack-dev-server and react-hot-loader) are included only when running in dev-server mode.

Installation

npm i

Usage

npm run dev-server
open http://localhost:8081
edit src/routes/main/main.js

All the changes will appear without reloading the browser. build.js automatically adds hot-module to all entry points when running in dev-server mode.

Paths

• src/routes/ Routes
• src/routes/index.js Routes config
• src/actions/ Redux actions
• src/reducers/ Redux reducers
• src/reducers/index.js Redux reducers config
• src/components/app-wrapper/app-wrapper.jsx Wrapper to all the routes

Redux DevTool

Also you may want to install useful extension Redux DevTool – live-editing time travel environment for Redux. Boilerplate has everything ready, so you only need to install the extension.

Building

npm run build
bundle files will appear in ./public/assets/

Linting

This boilerplate includes React-friendly ESLint configuration with Airbnb style guideline. Eslint runs automatically on each build.

Profiling

npm --silent run profiler > profile
upload file to http://webpack.github.io/analyse/

Configuration

You can change build configuration in build.js

• WEBPACK_ENTRY webpack entry point
• PUBLIC_PATH public path for assets
• CONTENT_BASE content base
• SOURCE_PATH sources path
• OUTPUT_JS output js name
• OUTPUT_CSS output css name
• OUTPUT_FONTS output fonts name
• OUTPUT_MEDIA output media name
• EXTRACT_CSS if true, css will be extracted into OUTPUT_CSS. if false - included into OUTPUT_JS

For example you want to change fonts public path from /assets/ to /assets/fonts/:

mkdir ./public/assets/fonts/
change OUTPUT_FONTS to ./fonts/[hash].[ext]

Proxying

To enable proxying requests (api, backend, etc) in dev-server mode you can change DEV_SERVER_PROXY_PORT and DEV_SERVER_PROXY_HOST in build.js.

Using 0.0.0.0 as Host

You may want to change the host DEV_SERVER_HOST in build.js from localhost to 0.0.0.0 to allow access from same WiFi network.
