Development

Vite is used for development and building the front-end application. It provides fast development with features like hot module replacement (HMR) and efficient production builds. Vite is configured using vite.config.js in the project root. All requests with the /api prefix are forwarded to the back-end Express server during development, using the vite server-proxy configuration

PRE: You need to have docker to run the image at /redis folder

  • Rename .env.example to .env & update the values
  • Run npm run dev

Troubleshooting

  • Read redis/README.md

Deployment

  • Replace "name" & "app" strings with your new app name at package.json at fly.toml (respectively)
  • Run npm i
  • Rename .env.example to .env
  • Run flyctl launch
  • When prompted for a builder, select builtin Nodejs.
  • Run npm run fly:deploy (for future deployments only this command will be needed)

Stopping / Starting app

  • npm run fly:stop
  • npm run fly:start

Read app secrets

  • npm run fly:ssh
  • type env

Set app secrets

Add them to .env file. Alternatively use fly.io built command but note those take precedence over the ones at .env

  • flyctl secrets set SECRET="myvalue" -a <app-name>

Read server logs

From terminal

  • npm run fly:logs

Redis

Upstash Redis can be created with flyctl redis create
