Development Instructions

If you are interested in contributing to this project, do the following.

1. Clone this repository in the usual fashion.
   git clone https://github.com/mpoegel/SemNExT-Visualizations.git
2. Install the dependencies.
   npm install
   In addition, the TypeScript Compiler, Definitely Typed, and Gulp are required as global dependencies.
   npm install -g typescript tsd gulp
3. Install the type definitions.
   gulp tsd
4. Bundle the JavaScript. This will also compile the TypeScript.
   gulp bundle-js
5. Bundle the CSS.
   gulp bundle-css
6. Set the app configuration.

// src/config.json
{
  "port": #port_number
}

Now you can run the project by just running gulp. Gulp will automatically recompile and rebundle the TypeScript when any .ts file is changed.

Deployment Instructions

deploy [hostname] [password] ['dev', 'production'] [branch] [config file]

There are two deployment strategies defined by default: production, which deploys to /var/www/chem, and dev, which deploys to /var/www/chem-dev.
