What is this?

It's the code that powers coderintros.com. View it, fork it, learn from it, help make it better, or do none of those at all.

Look, I just want a profile on coderintros.com

No problem! Head on over to our suggestion page. No shame in suggesting yourself, I promise.

How to run locally

• Get the code: git clone [email protected]:e10jc/coderintros.git
• Start Docker: ./local
• Route a local domain: Add 127.0.0.1 coderintros.dev to /etc/hosts
• Visit the site @ http://coderintros.dev/
• Visit the backend @ http://coderintros.dev/wp-admin
  • Login with admin password
• Also:
  • Download gcloud-service-account.json to the wordpress folder
  • Install the MobX Dev Tools Chrome extension
  • Install the Google Analytics Debugger Chrome extension

How to deploy

Sign up for an AWS account, then do the following:

• Create an RDS instance.
• Create an Elastic Beanstalk application and environment, specifying all the environment variables from docker-compose.yml.
  • Use the AWS console, or eb create prod --elb-type application --sample -i t2.micro -k coderintros --platform "multi-container-docker-1.12.6-(generic)" -pr --vpc.id REPLACE_ME --vpc.ec2subnets REPLACE_ME,REPLACE_ME --vpc.elbpublic --vpc.publicip --vpc.elbsubnets REPLACE_ME,REPLACE_ME
• In ECS, create repositories named react, wordpress, and varnish.
• Create an Elastic IP and assign it to your Elastic Beanstalk instance.
  • Add the AmazonEC2FullAccess role to aws-elasticbeanstalk-ec2-role so that you can assign the Elastic IP address to your instance.
• Create a Code Pipeline project, pulling from Github, running CodeBuild, deploying to Elastic Beanstalk.
  • Define AWS_REGION, AWS_ACCOUNT_ID, BUILD_BUCKET, PURGERS_ACL, and anything in react/env-config.js environment variables in CodeBuild.
  • Upload gcloud-service-account.json to the BUILD_BUCKET S3 folder
  • Add the AmazonEC2ContainerRegistryFullAccess and AmazonS3ReadOnlyAccess policies to IAM role code-build-coderintros-service-role.
• Push to Github and watch the magic happen!
