How to run this boilerplate

A tutorial on how to create mongodb and cloudinary > accounts, install dependencies and run the project.

1. Install dependencies

Run yarn install or npm install on both client and server folders, this command will install the project's dependencies.

2. Create MongoDB cluster and get the url

1. If you don't have one, create a mongodb account, then create the cluster for this project.

2. On the cluster's screen, go to Database Access > Database Users > Add New Database User, then create the user (remember the username and password, we're going to need them later).

3. Now go to Network Access > Ip Whitelist > Add IP Adress > Current Ip Adress, to add your current ip address to the cluster's whitelist, you will need to do this with every source that will access your database.

4. The mongo url will be:

   mongodb://[USER]:[PASSWORD]@[SHARD_URL]/[DB_NAME]?ssl=true&replicaSet=[SHARD_NAME]&authSource=admin&retryWrites=true&w=majority

3. Create cloudinary account

1. Go to cloudinary images website and create an account.

2. Under the Account Details section is a url named API environment variable this is your cloudinary url.

4. Create a env file

Create a file named .env and, inside of it, place this:

PORT=[PORT]
MONGO_URI=[MONGO_URI]
COOKIE_SECRET=[COOKIE_SECRET]
CLOUDINARY_URL=[CLOUDINARY_URL]

Where:

• [PORT] is which port you want the server to run on (usually 3001)
• [MONGO_URI] is the uri you got from step 2.3
• [COOKIE_SECRET] is a random string used for authentication on the admin.
• [CLOUDINARY_URL] is the url you got from step 3.2

5. Running in development

To run this project in development mode, we will need to run two servers, the react one on /client and keystone on /server.

The command to run react is yarn start or npm start depending on which tool was used on installation, the react server will run on port 3000 by default.

Before running the keystone server, go to /server/updates/0.0.1-admin.js and change the admin user as you want, this user will be the first created, but you will be able to create others and delete this one later.

To run keystoneJS server, use the command node index.js, the server will run on whatever port is in the variale in the env file, you will find the admin interface in http://localhost:[PORT]/admin

6. Running in production

To run the server in production, go to /client and run the command yarn server, this command will create a react production optimized build and move it to /server.

Then go to /server and run node index.js, you will find the project on http://localhost:[PORT]
