This application implements a user interface (built with Vue) specifically for Orgbook BC, an extension of Aries VCR, for registered organizations within the Province of British Columbia.
Note: The following sections on Running and Development assume that you already have a locally running instance of Aries-VCR. Please see the instructions here for running Aries-VCR locally with docker.
Running the web application is easiest with docker. Navigate to the docker/ folder run the following in a terminal:
./manage build
followed by
./manage start
The Orgbook BC project sits on top of verifiable credential technology facilitated by Aries VCR. A locally running instance of Aries VCR is not required to run the Orgbook BC web application on your own machine. By default Orgbook BC forwards API calls to the publicly running instance of the Orgbook API here. The Orgbook API is simply an Aries VCR instance containing credential information about BC Business entities. You can change your local instance of Orgbook to point to any running instance of an Aries VCR agent by editing the vue.config.js file outlined in this section here. If you would like to setup a locally running instance of Aries VCR to test with Orgbook, then follow the instructions here. To run Orgbook in development mode look at the project setup section here
The vite.config.js file contains configuration information for the Orgbook BC project, including the URL of the Aries VCR API that Orgbook will send requests to.
configureWebpack: {
devtool: "source-map",
devServer: {
proxy: {
"/api": {
target: "https://orgbook.gov.bc.ca",
// target: "http://localhost:8080",
},
},
},
},Simply change the target to the URL of the Aries VCR instance that you wish to use. Some examples are https://dev.orgbook.gov.bc.ca, https://test.orgbook.gov.bc.ca, or http://localhost:8080 if you are running Aries VCR locally on port 8080
Orgbook relies on npm and the Vue.js framework. Please make sure npm is up to date and installed on your system. After you've verified npm is installed, run the following command in the base folder of the application to install the project dependencies.
npm install
Once all the dependencies have been installed successfully, you can start the project locally. Run the following command in the base folder of the application to start Orgbook BC on your local machine. Orgbook will use port 8080 by default. Go to http://localhost:8080 to see your locally running instance of Orgbook
npm run serve
