LatCraft website sources

This repository contains Gulp project that builds LatCraft website.

Requisites

• The project local setup and dependencies are being handled by Docker.
• The web site build uses node.js and gulp.js.
• The project team owns and maintains latcraft/website docker image ready to use.

How to use docker image

The Docker image provides access to a preconfigured Gulp and Npm environment. Particularly, run.sh could be thought of as a convenience command-line prefix (analogous to sudo or env). Because of the way Docker service works, it might need to use sudo (and ask for your user credentials).

You don't need to build Docker image yourself. You are welcome to use LatCraft team's crafted and maintained version. You could obtain it by running docker pull latcraft/website.

How to build site

• If it is the first time you run the web site build, then install all the node modules by executing:

    ./run.sh npm install
  

• To build or to rebuild web site, fire the following command:

    ./run.sh gulp build
  

• Or just run ./run.sh gulp to start local web server on port 9009 and go to http://localhost:9009 in your browser. There is also a short-cut to start gulp if you are on Windows.

• By default website is built for local development environment. Adding --environment stage or --environment live arguments builds the website for staging or production accordingly.

You also fuck Docker and run commands directly on your machine. That is – npm install, gulp etc.

How to deploy to production

• Run ./run.sh gulp clean, to perform clean build.
• Run ./run.sh gulp build --environment live, to build the website for production.
• Run ./run.sh gulp deploy --environment live, to deploy.
• Visit http://latcraft.lv and have fun!

Deployment to production is performed automatically by Travis CI upon push to master.
