This repository hosts the Definity blog. It's made in TypeScript/JavaScript using Express and EJS, to make hosting it yourself easier. (You will still have to deal with SQL, though. Sorry.)
By default, it runs on port 8080, but you can modify it on the first line of index.ts
/ index.js
. However, if you use production, then please make sure ports 80 and 443 are available, as the specified port is ignored in production.
No guarantees any of this will work yet. Apologies.
Open a terminal, and setup if you haven't done git clone
yet:
$ > git clone https://github.com/DefinityTeam/blog
$ > cd website
$ > npm ci --only=production
Starting in development: npm run start
Starting in production: npm run start -- --prod
$ > npm ci
$ > npm run build
(Yes, it's that easy.)
When contributing to the main/parent repository, it is recommended to use npm run watch
. When you make changes to the directory, or any .ts
/.json
file, nodemon
will automatically restart the server.
Once you've finished your changes, ^C and npm run build
. After that, you're good to go.
