trackr-frontend

This is the trackr-page frontend. Though named trackr it's actually an app containing trackr. But trackr is most of it, code and featurewise.

Building

You need node, npm installed. From npm you need grunt-cli, bower and karma.

In the main directory run

grunt test
grunt dist
grunt karma:cover

Test will run all tests. dist will create the production package. karma:cover will run some coverage. The coverage report will be placed in reports/coverage.

Running

The best way to run the frontend against a backend locally is to have a HTTP server like nginx running that serves the static files and proxies the requests to the backend. Here is my nginx config:

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  localhost;

    location /api/ {
      proxy_pass http://localhost:8080/;
    }

    location / {
      alias /Users/moritz/workspace/techdev/trackr-frontend/dist/;
      try_files $uri $uri/ index.html =404;
    }

}

Of course you have to change the root path to your location. If you want to test the dist/ just add it to the root path. Put this in /etc/nginx/sites-available/trackr.conf, then make a symbolic link

ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-avialable/trackr.conf /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/

And be sure that the sites-enabled are loaded in the nginx.conf. If you start nginx you can find trackr under http://localhost:9090/.
