Discover the open source projects your organization is using that need financial support.
Our goal with BackYourStack is to make it easier for companies to identify the open source projects that they depend on that also need funding.
While we started with just node modules (as defined in package.json files) and with open source projects that are on Open Collective, we know that the open source community is much larger than that. That's why we would love to support more languages and platforms but for that, we need you!
Take a look at our public repository & Contributing Guidelines create or pick up issues and help us make open source more sustainable for everyone! 🙌
The official BackYourStack service is available from https://backyourstack.com/
Make sure you have Node.js version >= 10. We recommend using nvm: nvm install.
git clone https://github.com/opencollective/backyourstack.git
cd backyourstack
npm install
npm run dev
In development environment, we use dotenv to set environment keys. To use it, create an .env file at the root of the repository and add environment keys in there.
To allow authentication with GitHub, you'll need to set GITHUB_CLIENT_ID and GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET.
You can get these keys by registering a new oAuth application at GitHub. By default, the callback URL should be http://localhost:3000/auth/github/callback.
BackYourStack is currently deployed with Now. You will need to install Now Desktop or Now CLI.
Authenticate with:
now login
Switch to the Open Collective team account:
now switch opencollective
Make sure that the following secrets are set (uses now secret):
| name | description |
|---|---|
github_client_id |
Client id for the GitHub oAuth app |
github_client_secret |
Client secret for the GitHub oAuth app |
github_guest_token |
GitHub access token used to process unauthenticated requests |
Eg: now secret add github_client_id {value}
First:
now
If everything is ok, finalize with:
now alias
