-
Node ⇐16.17.1
-
Either a global installation of
yarn >=1.17.0
, orvolta >=1.1.0
-
With such a version of
yarn
globally installed, allyarn
commands executed in this repo will be delegated to the "pinned"yarn@3.3.1
installation included in.yarn/releases
. -
With such a version of volta installed, the required version of
yarn
will automatically be installed.

From the root package.json
:
yarn nx run <workspaceName>:<scriptName>
For example, you can start the MultiBLAST dev server by running
yarn nx run @veupathdb/multi-blast:start
When running a development server (such as yarn nx start @veupathdb/eda
or yarn nx start @veupathdb/clinepi-site
),
use the following command to rebuild changes made to dependencies, and to have the dev site reload with the changes:
cd packages/libs/<package>
yarn build-npm-modules
Note: You may need to manually reload your website to see the changes the first time.
Using the equivalent nx
command (yarn nx build-npm-modules @veupathdb/<package>
) has proven inadequate in this scenario.
Directory: packages/libs/eda
You will need to configure the server with a packages/libs/eda/.env.local
file that sets various environment variables.
For more documentation see the package README and this sample file.
Directory: packages/sites/{site name}-site
Copy the packages/sites/{site name}-site/.env.sample
file to packages/sites/{site name}-site/.env
and configure the new file with passwords and the desired backend for the site.
Run yarn
to update dependencies if necessary.
Run the command yarn nx start @veupathdb/{site name}-site
. For example, to run the ortho site use yarn nx start @veupathdb/ortho-site
.
The Client Bundle Server is a Docker image based on NGINX that is used to serve VEuPathDB client code over HTTP.
As the client code comes in 2 flavors (bundles), legacy and modern, this NGINX server has an internal path rewrite based on the requesting browser’s user agent string to the appropriate client bundle component on request.
This means using a modern browser, requesting the file
genomics/site-client.bundle.js
will cause the server to actually return
modern/genomics/site-client.bundle.js
whereas requesting that same file from
an older or unsupported browser (such as CURL or Postman) the server will return
legacy/genomics/site-client.bundle.js
.
Whether a browser is considered modern or legacy is dependent on the version of the browser compared to a RegEx constructed by the browserslist-useragent-regexp library using the input query constructed in the browserslist-config package of this repo. (See index.js for the raw queries)
The docker image is based on NGINX-Perl and includes NodeJS for executing a script based on browserslist-useragent-regexp that determines which path a specified file should be served from.
The image build is multi-staged with the first stage compiling primary contents of this repository, and the second stage setting up NGINX and the secondary JS script included in the docker directory (makeSupportedBrowsersScript.js).
Content is served from the following paths from the root path used to reach a running instance of the built Docker image:
{URL}/clinepi/{target-file}
{URL}/genomics/{target-file}
{URL}/mbio/{target-file}
{URL}/ortho/{target-file}
These paths correspond to the following container internal paths:
/var/www/legacy/clinepi/{target-file}
/var/www/modern/clinepi/{target-file}
/var/www/legacy/genomics/{target-file}
/var/www/modern/genomics/{target-file}
/var/www/legacy/mbio/{target-file}
/var/www/modern/mbio/{target-file}
/var/www/legacy/ortho/{target-file}
/var/www/modern/ortho/{target-file}
The Docker image may be tested locally by performing the following steps from the docker/ subdirectory:
-
Build and Start the image:
make docker-build make docker-run
-
Using your favorite HTTP request making tool such as Postman, CURL, or a web browser, make a request to http://localhost/genomics/site-client.bundle.js.LICENSE.txt . If the service is working you should receive a LICENSE text file’s contents as the response with a 200 status code. If it is not working you will receive a 403 or 404 error.
