How to properly install Web #66

Closed ghost closed 5 years ago

ghost commented 5 years ago

I got the app backend running fine, but the web UI is not there at all. Currently all HTML.

So far I have tried to cd assets/ and npm install

How do I install the UI?

redrabbit commented 5 years ago

What do you mean by Currently all HTML? Does the server render the page? Is the stylesheet missing/not loading? Any error/warning logs at compile time?

Normally, npm install in apps/gitgud_web/assets should be sufficient to setup the NPM dependencies. Running mix phx.server should compile them correctly.

@tiotolstoy, I've fixed a few things related to the asset pipeline. Maybe you could pull from master and see if your issue is fixed.

skwerlman commented 5 years ago

running mix phx.server without first running npm install results in an error message rather than doing that for you:

[error] Could not start node watcher because script "/mnt/code/gitgud/apps/gitgud_web/assets/node_modules/webpack/bin/webpack.js" does not exist. Your Phoenix application is still running, however assets won't be compiled. You may fix this by running "cd assets && npm install".

after running npm install manually it works fine

I've enhanced the installation procedure in README.md. Fixing a few things and adding an extra step for installing NPM dependencies.
