Development
-
Start the Postgres Database in Docker:
npm run docker
-
Initial setup:
npm run setup
-
Start dev server:
npm run dev
This starts your app in development mode, rebuilding assets on file changes.
The database seed script creates a new user with some data you can use to get started:
- Email:
rachel@remix.run
- Password:
rachelrox
Relevant code:
This is a pretty simple note-taking app, but it's a good example of how you can build a full stack app with Prisma and Remix. The main functionality is creating users, logging in and out, and creating and deleting notes.
- creating users, and logging in and out ./app/models/user.server.ts
- user sessions, and verifying them ./app/session.server.ts
- creating, and deleting notes ./app/models/note.server.ts
Deployment - TODO
This Remix Stack comes with two GitHub Actions that handle automatically deploying your app to production and staging environments.
Prior to your first deployment, you'll need to do a few things:
TODO: Create example k8s instructions
-
Create a new GitHub Repository
-
Add a
SESSION_SECRET
to your fly app secrets, to do this you can run the following commands:# TODO: Generate k8s secrets
If you don't have openssl installed, you can also use 1password to generate a random secret, just replace
$(openssl rand -hex 32)
with the generated secret.
GitHub Actions
We use GitHub Actions for continuous integration and deployment. Anything that gets into the main
branch will be deployed to production after running tests/build/etc. Anything in the dev
branch will be deployed to staging.
Testing
Cypress
We use Cypress for our End-to-End tests in this project. You'll find those in the cypress
directory. As you make changes, add to an existing file or create a new file in the cypress/e2e
directory to test your changes.
We use @testing-library/cypress
for selecting elements on the page semantically.
To run these tests in development, run npm run test:e2e:dev
which will start the dev server for the app as well as the Cypress client. Make sure the database is running in docker as described above.
We have a utility for testing authenticated features without having to go through the login flow:
cy.login();
// you are now logged in as a new user
We also have a utility to auto-delete the user at the end of your test. Just make sure to add this in each test file:
afterEach(() => {
cy.cleanupUser();
});
That way, we can keep your local db clean and keep your tests isolated from one another.
Vitest
For lower level tests of utilities and individual components, we use vitest
. We have DOM-specific assertion helpers via @testing-library/jest-dom
.
Type Checking
This project uses TypeScript. It's recommended to get TypeScript set up for your editor to get a really great in-editor experience with type checking and auto-complete. To run type checking across the whole project, run npm run typecheck
.
Linting
This project uses ESLint for linting. That is configured in .eslintrc.js
.
Formatting
We use Prettier for auto-formatting in this project. It's recommended to install an editor plugin (like the VSCode Prettier plugin) to get auto-formatting on save. There's also a npm run format
script you can run to format all files in the project.
