Evora React webapp

Primary LanguageJavaScript

Evora client

The React webapp to interface with the Evora camera.

Getting Started with Create React App

This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.

Available Scripts

In the project directory, you can run:

npm start

Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in your browser.

The page will reload when you make changes.
You may also see any lint errors in the console.

npm test

Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.

npm run build

Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!

See the section about deployment for more information.

npm run eject

Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can't go back!

If you aren't satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.

Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you're on your own.

You don't have to ever use eject. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn't feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn't be useful if you couldn't customize it when you are ready for it.

Deploying for production

To deploy the web application in production, first build it using npm build. This will create a series of minified files in build/.

Now we need to create a route in our reverse proxy to point to the webapp. We assume that nginx has already been installed and configured as described in the server.

Edit the configuration file /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/evora.conf and add the following routes, replacing the path to the Evora client build files.

location / {
    root <path-to-evora-client>/build;
    index index.html index.php;
}

location /data {
    alias /data;
    autoindex on;
    index index.html index.php;
}

Note that we have also added a static alias to /data where the images will be saved. After this, restart nginx with

sudo systemctl restart nginx

and try accessing the webapp from http://localhost:9900.
