Lab: Light Pollution Simulator

This is a lab that teaches students the effect of light pollution on the night sky.

Environment Variables

To start developing locally, you should create a .env.local file in your root folder with the following content:

REACT_APP_GRAASP_DEVELOPER_ID=
REACT_APP_GRAASP_APP_ID=
REACT_APP_GRAASP_DOMAIN=localhost
REACT_APP_HOST=
REACT_APP_VERSION=
REACT_APP_BASE=

Once you are ready to deploy your application to our development server, you will need to create a .env.dev file in your root folder following the patter below. Replace the value between <> with those that you received from our developers. Please make sure you do not commit or share the values between <> with anyone, as they are confidential.

REACT_APP_GRAASP_DEVELOPER_ID=<REACT_APP_GRAASP_DEVELOPER_ID>
REACT_APP_GRAASP_APP_ID=<REACT_APP_GRAASP_APP_ID>
REACT_APP_GRAASP_DOMAIN=graasp.eu
REACT_APP_HOST=apps.dev.graasp.eu
REACT_APP_VERSION=latest
REACT_APP_BASE=//$REACT_APP_HOST/$REACT_APP_GRAASP_DEVELOPER_ID/$REACT_APP_GRAASP_APP_ID/$REACT_APP_VERSION/
NODE_ENV=production
BUCKET=graasp-apps-dev
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID>
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY>

Once you are ready to deploy your application to our production server, you will need to create a .env.prod file in your root folder following the patter below. Replace the value between <> with those that you received from our developers. Please make sure you do not commit or share the values between <> with anyone, as they are confidential.

REACT_APP_GRAASP_DEVELOPER_ID=<REACT_APP_GRAASP_DEVELOPER_ID>
