pyt-vanilla-html

The master branch is available at http://myfeed.rocks/b/

Setup

You may want to edit domains.json for information about supported back ends.

Use tools/deploy.sh to collect all the necessary stuff in a desired deployment directory

You can do it manually, with the following steps:

1. Install necessary npm modules: $ npm install
2. Run webpack $ webpack --config config.js to make a bundle file
3. Copy the files listed in release.lst to a deployment directory
4. Optionally you can edit index.html and update md5 hash values of vanilla.js and config.json to prevent caching outdated files

Then put there and edit config.josn:

• the path on your server as "front"
• the path to the files as "static"
• the list of back ends you want to serve in "domains"

Then set up the web server to rewrite all the requests to index.html, accept those which go to static

To have server-side rendering install necessary npm modules: $ npm install

Create server-side rendering script $ webpack --config config_srv.js

Use the function exported by vanilla_srv.js module to handle http requests with http.createServer. First parameter is the request, second is the response.

Example

You put everything in /var/pyt-vanilla-html web directory and you want to access it form /vanilla

$ tools/deploy.sh -d /var/pyt-vanilla-html

Then you add the following to your web server config:

...
location ~ /vanilla/ {
  add_header Cache-Control no-cache;
  rewrite ^/vanilla/s(/.*) /pyt-vanilla-html$1 break;
  rewrite ^.* /pyt-vanilla-html/index.htm break;
}
...

And config.json

var gConfig = {
  "front":"https://{mydomain}/vainlla/"
  , "static":"https://{mydomain}/vainlla/s/"
  , "leadDomain": "FreeFeed"
  , domains: ["FreeFeed", "MyOtherFF"]
...
