This is a small React project to make it easy to visualize possible upcoming staffing scenarios and plan for multiple possible futures at once.
It does not have a database (maybe a future enhancement?) and uses Airtable for quick and dirty data storage. This means you'll need to make sure that your Airtable set up has the same tables and coluumns that the code expects.
This is a monorepo with a React app in the root and a Node Express server in the server directory.
We are using a single package.json to manage package dependencies for both applications. React dependences are in devDependencies since the React app is built and served by the Express app. Regular dependencies are for buildtime and the Node server.
nvm use
yarn installPlease check the corresponding .env.sample to make sure you have all values defined. Examples can be found in 1Password Tandem General vault. If you need to add env vars for the React app, be sure to prefix with REACT_APP_.
The secret keys kept in your .env variables can be any string you want. The longer you make them, the more secure they are.
To test your Forecast variables, you can run the following cUrl request
curl -i \
-H 'Forecast-Account-Id: ACCOUNT-ID'\
-H 'Authorization: Bearer ACCESS-TOKEN'\
-H 'User-Agent: https://www.npmjs.com/package/forecast-promise' \

yarn startTo start the server and the client separately (for finer control and troubleshooting), you can run the following commands in separate terminal windows.
To start the client,
yarn start-clientTo start the server,
yarn start-serverCurrently being deployed to the tandem-staffing Heroku application manually.
