# Support Dotcom Components | ||
# support-dotcom-components | ||
|
||
A Node.js server for serving marketing messages to theguardian.com ([dotcom-rendering](https://github.com/guardian/dotcom-rendering/)). | ||
Consists of: | ||
|
||
Configuration of the marketing messages is primarily done from the [RRCP](https://github.com/guardian/support-admin-console). | ||
|
||
See [architecture](docs/architecture.md) for details. | ||
|
||
## Development | ||
|
||
This project uses [nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm). You should run `nvm use` in your terminal before running any of the following commands. To set up, first run | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
pnpm install | ||
``` | ||
|
||
This will install all the project dependencies. | ||
|
||
|
||
### Server | ||
|
||
To start the server run | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
pnpm start | ||
``` | ||
|
||
This will start `webpack` in `watch` mode to recompile on file changes and `nodemon` to run the resulting javascript and restart after recompilation. | ||
|
||
The server runs on port 8082 locally. | ||
|
||
|
||
#### DCR | ||
|
||
A local instance of DCR will use the `SDC_URL` environment variable to get the url for requests to SDC. To point DCR at a local instance of SDC we can therefore run DCR like | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
SDC_URL=http://localhost:8082 make dev | ||
``` | ||
|
||
|
||
#### Browserstack Local: | ||
If you need to test against local instances of SDC + DCR through Browserstack Local then it's necessary to use the `thegulocal.com` domain. | ||
To do this, in SDC: | ||
1. setup nginx with `packages/server/scripts/nginx/setup.sh` | ||
2. run `base_url=https://contributions.thegulocal.com pnpm server start` | ||
|
||
Then in DCR: | ||
1. setup nginx with `scripts/nginx/setup.sh` | ||
2. run `SDC_URL=https://contributions.thegulocal.com make dev` | ||
3. use https://r.thegulocal.com, rather than localhost | ||
|
||
### Run the tests | ||
|
||
To run the tests run | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
pnpm test | ||
``` | ||
|
||
To run specific tests specify the path, e.g. | ||
```bash | ||
pnpm test src/server/tests/banners/bannerDeploySchedule.test.ts | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Project structure | ||
|
||
The `/src` directory contains 3 subdirectories: | ||
|
||
- `/server` - a Node.js express server. | ||
- `/dotcom` - exports selected code/types for publishing to an npm package, for use by dotcom-rendering. | ||
- `/shared` - shared code between `/server` and `/dotcom`. | ||
|
||
## Publishing to npm | ||
|
||
`@guardian/support-dotcom-components` is a library for sharing logic and types with dotcom-rendering. | ||
|
||
Releasing to NPM is handled with [changesets] and is performed by CI. | ||
|
||
On your feature branch, before merging, run `pnpm changeset` from the root of the project. This will | ||
interactively ask you what kind of change this is (major, minor, patch) and | ||
allow you to describe the change. Commit the generated changeset file to git and | ||
push to your branch. | ||
|
||
When you merge the branch, a version release PR will be automatically opened. | ||
|
||
When this PR is merged, a new release will be pushed to NPM. The version change | ||
will be based on the information in your changeset file. If the version release | ||
PR isn't merged straight away, that's fine. Any other PRs with changesets merged | ||
in the meantime will cause the release PR to be updated. | ||
|
||
Not all PRs require releasing and therefore don't need a changeset. For example | ||
a change to the README. | ||
|
||
[changesets]: https://github.com/changesets/changesets | ||
|
||
### Updating in DCR | ||
|
||
You can manually bump the version of SDC in `package.json` and run `pnpm i`, or run | ||
|
||
`pnpm --filter=@guardian/dotcom-rendering i @guardian/support-dotcom-components@latest` | ||
|
||
from the root of the project. | ||
|
||
|
||
## SSH access | ||
|
||
To ssh onto an instance use: | ||
`ssm ssh --profile <aws profile> -x --ssm-tunnel -i <instance ID>` | ||
|
||
## Logging | ||
|
||
When running locally a simple `console.log` is all you need. However, if you want to produce logs that can be viewed in kibana the simplest way to go is to use the `logInfo`/`logWarn`/`logError` functions exported from `logging.ts`. These take a `message` string that you can search for under the `message` field in kibana. If you want additional flexibility, you can use the `logger.info`/`logger.warn`/`logger.error` methods on the exported `logger` object instead. These methods take an object with any key/values that will appear as top level keys in kibana. However, getting the types wrong (e.g if you did `logger.info({ message: ["foo", "bar"]}))` would result in kibana silently rejecting the log and it therefore not being searchable (as `message` must be a string). | ||
1. A Node.js server for serving marketing messages to theguardian.com ([dotcom-rendering](https://github.com/guardian/dotcom-rendering/)). See [server.md](./docs/server.md) for details | ||
2. An npm package with types and logic for use by dotcom-rendering. |
