In this document

Site URLs

Production

Live:

Staging

Development

Used to test new functionality / changes. Access to development is restricted by IP address.

Local

Deployment

The project uses Deployer to perform deployment.

Please note this project uses a local instance of Deployer (installed via Composer), as opposed to a global version of Deployer.

To run deployments please use:

vendor/bin/dep deploy <environment>

To deploy a specific branch use

vendor/bin/dep deploy <environment> --branch=<branch_name>

E.g.

vendor/bin/dep deploy development --branch=feature/my-branch-name

SSH access

To connect to the server directly at the correct path for an environments current release, run the following from the root of the project

vendor/bin/dep ssh <environment>

Updating HTML templates

The HTML templates are stored in w3c-website-templates-bundle

These can be updated by deploying changes to the design system and running composer update in this project.

You can also test changes either by deploying a branch to the staging environment for the design system, or by testing a development branch on the frontend website.

Installation

w These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

More on the Git workflow for this project.

Requirements

Clone the repository

git clone [email protected]:w3c/website-frontend.git

Install Composer dependencies

composer install

Note: If you already have this project installed locally and you're having trouble seeing any changes, make sure you have cleared your Symfony cache using the bin/console cache:clear command.

Configuration

Create a local env file:

touch .env.local

And set:

  • APP_ENV (dev, staging, prod)
  • APP_URL
  • CRAFTCMS_API_URL
  • CRAFTCMS_API_READ_TOKEN
  • CRAFTCMS_API_PUBLISH_TOKEN

You can find your API Read and Publish tokens by going to the Craft CMS dashboard (see the Craft repo).

You can check what env files are being loaded in your environment by running php bin/console debug:dotenv

Running application locally

Before running the below command, please ensure you have the Symfony CLI installed

Once you have the Symfony CLI installed (or you have ensured you already have it installed), you can run the frontend application locally at http://localhost:8000/ by running

symfony server:start

In your terminal

Note: A good way to test if something will break if you deploy it to live is to switch your local env’s CraftCMS API URL and Read and Publish tokens to the production CMS (Please be careful about any changes you make in the Production CMS as they will be visible on the live site)
