About The Project

This project provides an intuitive way for new to explore some preconfigured FLINT modules, including the Generic Budget Carbon Model (GCBM), in order to better understand how the FLINT system works. Our client is written as a Web application and can be used in a local or remote environment. Please contact us if you'd like help deploying your cloud instance or customizing the client.

Getting started

Prerequisites

In order to use and work on this project you need to install Docker for running the Docker image and Yarn to run the Vue app locally.

You can install Docker following the download's instructions.

In order to install Yarn, open a terminal and type:

npm install -g yarn

Installation

To set up this project locally follow the below procedure:

Pull the below docker image to run flint.example:

docker pull shubhamkarande13/flint.example:bionic

Clone FLINT.UI repository:

When using submodules the installation code needs to be:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/moja-global/flint-ui

Or if you've already initialized the repository without the submodule

git submodule update --init --recursive

Now get inside the repository directory and build the docker-compose.yml file by following the below command:

docker-compose up

This will build all the docker images inside the docker-compose.yml file. It will take some time and after that, you can see all images list in the Docker app.

docker-compose.yml file is composed of three services i.e. flint.example.api, flint.gcbm.api, flint.ui.

Now you can start all the containers by clicking on the START button or using the command docker-compose up. You can also use the command docker start {name of the container} to start the only specific container.

All containers list will look like this in the Docker app:

If you want to shut down a specific container click on the STOP button of that specific container in the Docker app. You can also use the command line to stop a specific container by using the command docker stop {name of the container you want to stop}.

To shut down, the whole docker-compose.yml file and all services inside it then use the command docker-compose down.

You can also run docker-compose.yml in Detached mode. Detached mode, shown by the option --detach or -d, means that a Docker container runs in the background of your terminal. It does not receive input or display output. So the command for running docker-compose up in Detached mode is docker-compose up -d.

To view the UI please navigate to 127.0.0.1:8000. UI will look something like this:

Commit Convention

Before you create a Pull Request, please check whether your commits comply with the commit conventions used in this repository.

When you create a commit we kindly ask you to follow the convention category(scope or module): message in your commit message while using one of the following categories:

feat / feature: all changes that introduce completely new code or new features
fix: changes that fix a bug (ideally you will additionally reference an issue if present)
refactor: any code related change that is not a fix nor a feature
docs: changing existing or creating new documentation (i.e. README, docs for usage of a lib or cli usage)
build: all changes regarding the build of the software, changes to dependencies or the addition of new dependencies
test: all changes regarding tests (adding new tests or changing existing ones)
ci: all changes regarding the configuration of continuous integration (i.e. github actions, ci system)
chore: all changes to the repository that do not fit into any of the above categories

If you are interested in the detailed specification you can visit https://www.conventionalcommits.org/

The project is configured with husky git-hook which on every successive commits checks for linting errors in the codebase and commit convention.

To ease writing conventional commit messages, this repository contains commitizen that assists with that. To commit your changes, run yarn commit in the root of the repository.

Branch-name Convention

We follow the convention [type/scope]. For example fix/lint-error or docs/component-api. type can be either docs, fix, feat, build, or any other conventional commit type. scope is just a short id that describes the scope of work.
