Local Development

Because this app is made of two npm projects, there are two places to run npm commands:

1. Node API server at the root ./
2. React client in client/ directory.

1. Run the API server

In a terminal:

# Initial setup
npm install

# Start the server
npm start

Install new npm packages for Node

npm install package-name --save

2. Run the React client

The React app is configured to proxy backend requests to the local Node server.

In a separate terminal from the API server, start the client:

# Always change directory, first
cd client/

# Initial setup
npm install

# Start the server
npm start

Install new npm packages for React client

# Always change directory, first
cd client/

npm install package-name --save

Deploy to Heroku

git clone https://github.com/chingu-voyage7/Bears-Team-03.git
cd Bears-Team-03/
heroku create
git push heroku master

This deployment will automatically:

• detect Node buildpack
• build the app with
  • npm install for the Node server
  • heroku-postbuild for create-react-app
• launch the web process with npm start
  • serves ../client/build/ as static files
  • customize by adding API, proxy, or route handlers/redirectors
