Branches

• main - The main branch is the production source of truth.

  Changes to main will automatically build, but will not auto-deploy to production. You'll have to promote changes to production using the Netlify control panel.

  Merge your code to main frequently. If you have to have a long-lived set of changes, ask yourself whether it might be better to feature flag your code off and land it to main rather than fight rebasing against the whole team.

• studio-staging - The staging auto-deploy branch.

  You do not ever need to interact with this branch. Changes to main will automatically be pushed to studio-staging and auto-deployed to https://studio-staging.studio.storyteller.ai . You can test changes that have landed in main here before promoting them to production.

• studio-testing - The testing branch.

Anyone can push their changes to this branch for testing in a production-like environment. Since it is built and hosted on https://studio-testing.studio.storyteller.ai , you won't face CORS issues, same-site cookie issues, or have to use a local development proxy. (This doesn't obviate the need for a development proxy for fast development iteration, but is a fantastic way to test your changes in a "production-like" environment.)

Force push to this branch by using git push -f origin studio-testing

Local Testing & Development

Set up .env and the Proxy Server

Copy & paste the env settings from .env-local-proxy to .env, (if the file .env do not exist, simply create one at the root of this project's folder beside the other env settings files).

The settings from .env-local-proxy directs all requests to localhost:3000, this will relieve us from having to deal with CORS between various services.

Then, start the proxy server in the folder /proxy. Before running the proxy for the first time, run:

npm i

To start the proxy run:

npm run dev

If the proxy fails, make sure your node version is 18.18. If you need to change the node version run npm rebuild once before re-running npm run dev

Run the Code Locally

To setup and run this project's code locally:

npm install
npm run dev
