Web application for Planetary Computer Land Cover Mapping platform. For the API and infrastructure, see pearl-backend.

Installation and Usage

The steps below will walk you through setting up your own instance of the project.

Install Project Dependencies

To set up the development environment for this website, you'll need to install the following on your system:

• Node (see .nvmrc) (To manage multiple node versions we recommend nvm)
• Yarn package manager

Install Application Dependencies

If you use nvm, activate the desired Node version:

nvm install

Install Node modules:

yarn install

Usage

Config files

All the config files can be found in app/assets/scripts/config. After installing the following files will be available:

• base.js: default configuration for all environments
• cypress.js: configuration used when running Cypress specs
• production.js, testing.js, staging.js: deployment environments
• local.js: Used only for local development, will override any of previous files. On production this file should not exist or be empty

The following options must be set: (The used file will depend on the context):

• value - Description

Example:

module.exports = {
  value: 'some-value',
};

Dependencies

This project uses components from the DevSeed UI Library. Library collecticons are included and can be used in both library and local components. The gulp file still runs a task to compile compile local icons. To add a custom icon, add to icons/collecticons and import collecticon from ./app/scripts/styles/collecticons/index.js.

Starting the app

yarn serve

Compiles the javascript and launches the server making the site available at http://localhost:9000/ The system will watch files and execute tasks whenever one of them changes. The site will automatically refresh since it is bundled with livereload.

Local Testing with Cypress

The app is using Cypress to perform end-to-end testing. New tests should be added to cypress/integrations/*.spec.js.

Start the front-end for Cypress testing:

yarn serve:cypress

Run tests:

yarn cy:run

This the method used in CI for PR/merge checks.

Develop with Cypress Dashboard and auto-reload

This should be the easiest method for developing locally. Start the app with auto-reload:

yarn serve

Open Cypress dashboard: yarn cy:open.

To use a different API, please add REST and Websocket URLs to config/local.js.

Stress test an live API

By default, Cypress will use mocked API endpoints for testing. Please do the follow steps to run automate testing using a live API:

1. Start the app using testing API with yarn serve:testing
2. Visit http://localhost:9000
3. Login to the website, following Auth0 workflow
4. Open developer tools, visit a protected route and collect your API Token by inspecting request headers to the API
5. Add apiToken property to config/local.json with value collected
6. Start Cypress Dashboard in "stress" mode: yarn cy:open:stress

Please refer to instructions in cypress/integration/stress-live-api.spec.js file for more details on this testing approach.

To run test against an API other than testing, replace the first step with:

• Update config/local.json with target API URLs (REST and Websocket)
• Start front-end server: yarn serve

Deployment

To prepare the app for deployment run:

yarn build

or

yarn stage

This will package the app and place all the contents in the dist directory. The app can then be run by any web server.
