@stellar-apps/create-react-app

This is an inst template for launching Lambda-hosted React SSR apps with API Gateway + CloudFront with custom domains.

Installation

This assumes you've already created an inst workspace with inst init [workspace]

cd my-workspace
yarn inst @stellar-apps/create-react-app

Installation options

  • Name
    • The name of the package you're creating
  • AWS profile
    • The name of the AWS profile in your ~/.aws/credentials file that you'd like to use to deploy this application
  • Domain name [production]
    • The domain name to launch the production version of your app on
  • S3 bucket [production]
    • default [Name]-public
    • The name of the bucket to deploy your client JS, images, etc. into. These are resources that are external to your application.
  • Domain name [staging]
    • default staging-[Domain name] if [Domain name] is a subdomain, otherwise staging.[Domain name]
    • The domain name to launch the staging version of your app on
  • S3 bucket [staging]
    • default [value of staging Domain name]
    • See production above for description
  • Inherits code from
    • Use the spacebar and arrow keys to select libraries already part of your Workspace to inherit code from, e.g. a core or shared directory. You will then be able to import these libraries into your application via the alias ~[library name] e.g. import {Header} from '~core'

Configuring CloudFormation

You should pay special attention to these values in serverless.yml EVERY TIME you create a new app from this template. This should be the FIRST THING you do after you create an app.

  1. The default template assumes you're using a unique bucket for the public client assets of this application. If you're using a shared bucket that already exists, be sure to delete the resources.Resources.ClientS3Bucket section of the serverless.yml that gets generated.

  2. The default behavior for client buckets is to retain them on teardown so as not to accidentally empty a bucket that is in use by other applications. To change this behavior, assuming your bucket is unique, you can change the option for retain to false in custom.syncBundle['webpack/client.config.js'].bucket and comment out resources.Resources.ClientS3Bucket.DeletionPolicy.

  3. The default behavior for managing ACM certificates is to retain them on teardown. This is to prevent encountering errors when you try to remove certificates that are still in use by other applications, e.g. wildcard certificates. To change this behavior, set retain to false in custom.certificateManager.retain

  4. Pay special attention to the custom.certificateManager.domains listed to be sure they are exactly the domains you need a certificate for and that they will use the exact same certificate.

  5. You will want to glance at the .env.[stage] files to ensure the proper PUBLIC_PATH is defined if you're using a CloudFront distribution in front of your S3 bucket.

Managing the application

Starting the app in the development stage and development NODE_ENV on a local server

cd my-workspace
yarn my-app start

Starting the app in the development stage and production NODE_ENV on a local server

cd my-workspace
yarn my-app start production

Deploying the CloudFormation stack to staging stage

Note: You have to use this command before using deploy without a --stack flag

cd my-workspace
yarn my-app deploy --stack

Deploying the CloudFormation stack to production stage

Note: You have to use this command before using deploy production without a --stack flag

cd my-workspace
yarn my-app deploy production --stack

Deploying the application without changing the CloudFormation stack to staging stage

cd my-workspace
yarn my-app deploy

Deploying the application without changing the CloudFormation stack to production stage

cd my-workspace
yarn my-app deploy production

Bundling the application without uploading the staging stage to S3

cd my-workspace
yarn my-app bundle

Bundling the application without uploading the production stage to S3

cd my-workspace
yarn my-app bundle production

Tearing down the staging CloudFormation stack

This removes your CloudFormation stack and all the resources defined within it. Use with extreme caution.

cd my-workspace
yarn my-app teardown

Tearing down the production CloudFormation stack

This removes your CloudFormation stack and all the resources defined within it. Use with extreme caution.

cd my-workspace
yarn my-app teardown production
