The front page / home page for IOOS National Glider DAC

Installation

  1. Download and install nodeJS (should come with npm)

  2. Install yarn using your package manager. Instructions can be found here.

  3. Use yarn to build the project dependencies

    yarn
    
  4. Run the project

    node bin/www
    
  5. Accessing via localhost in browser:

  http://localhost:3000

Docker build

The Docker build is far simpler:

$ docker build -t <tag> -f Dockerfile .

NOTE: ensure that public/lib is removed before building. If it exists, yarn will attempt to use the existing one in the Docker build, breaking the symlink in the container and lead to ugly CSS.
