Developing

Setting up Stripe

You need to create a Stripe developer account (no need to give any bank info). This will give you the necessary tokens to run the app. The Publishable key is the REACT_APP_PUBLIC_STRIPE_KEY environment variable. The Secret key is the SECRET_STRIPE_KEY environment variable.

Forking

Work off of a fork. When you are ready, make a pull request.

If you have conflicts that cannot be resolved in the github UI, manually resolve them by setting a new remote. Here, upstream is the name of the remote, but you can call it whatever you'd like.

git remote add upstream git@github.com:insightorchards/cha-ching.git

Run git remote and you should see upstream in the output list.

git fetch upstream

Now you will have the latest changes from the upstream.

Proceed with resolving conflicts with a rebase or merge, whichever you prefer.

Deploying the App

We deploy the app with heroku. The front and back end are deployed separately.

Add heroku remotes

git remote add heroku https://git.heroku.com/io-cha-ching.git
git remote add heroku-client https://git.heroku.com/io-cha-ching-client.git

Time to deploy

Make sure to deploy from the upstream main, rather than your forked main. After merging your PR, fetch the upstream and checkout to it: git fetch upstream && git checkout upstream/main. Then run your deploy commands from this detached head state.

Deploy the client

git subtree push --prefix client heroku-client main

If the branch tip is behind the remote, you may have to force push.

git push heroku-client `git subtree split --prefix client main`:main --force

Deploy the server

git push heroku main
