Geting started 🌟

If you are new to programming and/or the repository, we recommend you take a look at our Beginners Guide

Running

1. Run yarn dev
2. Visit http://localhost:3000 in your browser

You can now edit the project files, and the browser will reload the page automatically.

You can run yarn lint [--fix] to lint and fix files.

By default, you won't be able to test out payments via Square until you add the sandbox Square access token to the env file at .devcontainer/.env and rebuild the docker container (F1 > Rebuild Container). You will need to get these details from the webmaster.

Hints and Tips

• If you use the supplied Dev Containers, the API is automatically put up with the dev container on port 9000. In this way, you can access the GraphQLi interface and the Django admin panel. This project is setup to automatically expect the API to be running at localhost:9000. If it is not (or you want to use a different instance), add API_BASE={API_URL} into your .env file.

Compiling and Deploying 🔨

This application targets a "static" site (frequently known as a SPA). It does not use the SSR or Universal app mode that is available with Nuxt.

To build on a standalone system:

1. Create the .env file from the example. Edit this as required.
2. Run yarn generate
3. Deploy the files from /dist

Checkout the .env.example file to see the environment variables to set/override

Testing 👨‍💻

Unit Tests

yarn test:unit

Add --watch to automatically re-run tests as you change files

End-to-end tests

Start the server with yarn beforetest:e2e:local (for testing with the local docker live api).

Then run:

yarn test:e2e:silent
