Welder Web

The web interface for Welder!

Getting Started

Step 1. Make sure that you have Node.js v6.9.1 or newer installed on your machine. For example:

nvm install 6.9.1

Or if it's installed, make sure you're using it:

nvm use 6.9.1

Step 2. Clone this repository and install its dependencies:

$ git clone -o upstream -b master --single-branch https://github.com/weldr/welder-web
$ cd welder-web/
$ npm install                   # Install project dependencies listed in package.json

Step 3. Compile and launch your app by running:

$ node run build
$ node run                      # Same as `npm start` or `node run start`

You can also test your app in release (production) mode by running node run start --release or with HMR and React Hot Loader disabled by running node run start --no-hmr. The app should become available at http://localhost:3000/.

You can also enable code instrumentation with istanbul by specifying node run build --with-coverage or node run --with-coverage. This is needed if you want to collect code coverage from end-to-end tests. Don't use --with-coverage when running the unit tests. jest provides its own instrumentation and it will break if we do double instrumentation. Disabled by default!

How to Test

Unit Test

The unit tests are powered by Jest and Enzyme

$ npm run lint                  # Check JavaScript and CSS code for potential issues
$ npm run test                  # Run unit tests. Or, `npm run test:watch`

End-to-End Test

End-to-End Test Running Guide.

NOTE: all tests are executed in Travis CI on every commit and every pull request!

How to Deploy

Update publish script in the run.js file with your full Firebase project name as found in your Firebase console. Note that this may have an additional identifier suffix than the shorter name you've provided. Then run:

$ node run publish              # Build and publish the website to Firebase, same as `npm run publish`

The first time you publish, you will be prompted to authenticate with Google and generate an authentication token in order for the publish script to continue.

If you need just to build the project without publishing it, run:

$ node run build                # Or, `node run build --release` for production build

Cockpit Package

This project can also be used through cockpit as a cockpit package.

npm install && node run build
mkdir -p ~/.local/share/cockpit
ln -s /path/to/welder-web/public ~/.local/share/cockpit/welder

Then you if you log into cockpit as the user that owns ~, you can use the app from cockpit.

To keep this working all code should follow the following rules.

• All urls in the html and javascript need to use relative paths.
• All requests to the API should be made using utils.apiFetch. Any non API fetch requests must use credentials: 'same-origin' so that cookies are included with those ajax requests.
• Use hashes for navigation within the SPA so that cockpit can keep the top level location display up to date.

Package as an RPM/SRPM

This project can be packaged as either a noarch rpm or an srpm.

$ make rpm                # Or, `make srpm`

For a general guide on how to write translatable strings, see weldr.io

All npm run targets that start with translate: need zanata-js to be installed. Install it with the usual npm install zanata-js.

There are a lot of parts involved in translating a string. Here's an overview of the process, from start to finish:

Step 1. During development, the developer adds a translatable string. See weldr.io for details on how to indicate that the string is translatable, and what the string may contain. In general, the string is added using react-intl MessageDescriptors, but without explicit id attributes.

Step 2. The developer runs npm run translations:push. As part of this process, babel-plugin-react-intl-auto will add id attributes to all of the messages, and babel-plugin-react-intl will extract all of the messages to JSON files, written to ./build/messages. react-intl-po is used to collect the JSON files into a gettext-style POT file, and the POT file is uploaded to Zanata.

Step 3. Translators provide translations on Zanata.

Step 4. The developer runs npm run translations:pull and npm run po2json. This downloads the translations from Zanata as gettext-style .po files and converts the .po files back to JSON.

Step 5. The user runs welder-web. Based on the user's browser configuration, welder-web determines the user's preferred language, and if translations are available, these translations are provided to react-intl's <IntlProvider>. react-intl then displays translated strings where possible.

To test translations, npm run translations:test will generate Pig Latin translations of all translatable strings and save them as the Volapük (vo) translation. Volapük is used because it's a constructed language that has locale support in react-intl and an estimated 20 speakers worldwide. To switch to the test translations, add "Volapük" to the top of your browser's preferred language list. In Firefox, this can be configured in the Language section of about:preferences.
