Setup and install

Fork this repo from inside GitHub so you can commit directly to your account, or simply download the .zip bundle with the contents inside.

Dependency installation

During the time building this project, you'll need development dependencies of which run on Node.js, follow the steps below for setting everything up (if you have some of these already, skip to the next step where appropriate):

1. Download and install Node.js here for Windows or for Mac.
2. Install Firebase CLI on the command-line with npm install -g firebase-tools
3. Install Gulp CLI on the command-line with npm install -g gulp

That's about it for tooling you'll need to run the project, let's move onto the project install.

Project installation and server

Now you've pulled down the repo and have everything setup, you'll need to cd into the directory that you cloned the repo into and run some quick tasks:

cd <master-seed-app-folder>
npm install

This will then setup all the development and production dependencies we need.

Now simply run this to boot up the server:

npm start

Everything you do will be inside of /src, and everything is compiled and outputted inside /dist, this is the same for both local development and deployment.

Tasks

A quick reminder of all tasks available:

Running the local server

npm start

Running the tests

npm test

Deploying to Firebase

You'll need to ensure you're logged into Firebase first (if you are prompted, otherwise skip to next step):

firebase login

To deploy:

npm run deploy

This will then use the gulpfile.babel.js tasks to build the project and deploy it all fully minified to your Firebase account. You'll then be shown the full URL of your project in the terminal for viewing your live app!

Firebase rules

You can copy and paste this into your database.rules.json file generated by Firebase:

{
  "rules": {
    ".read": true,
    "contacts": {
      "$uid": {
        ".read": "$uid === auth.uid",
        ".write": "$uid === auth.uid"
      }
    }
  }
}
