This project allows you to make and manage melon tasting reservations. 🍉

Prerequisites

The following pieces of software are necessary before installing project dependencies and running the application. If you already have these installed, you can skip to the Setup section

Homebrew

/usr/bin/ruby -e "\$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Python3

brew install python3

Node

brew install node

Yarn

npm install --global yarn

Setup

Javascript

Run yarn install to install Javascript dependencies.

Python

The first time you run this project, create a Python virtual environment using python3 -m venv env.

Each time you want to run the server, activate the virtual environment with source env/bin/activate. Then install dependencies using pip3 install requirements.txt.

Local development

In separate terminal tabs, run:

yarn js-start
yarn py-start

Open http://localhost:3000 to view the application in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits.

You will also see any lint errors in the console.

Available Scripts

In the project directory, you can run:

yarn js-start

Runs the frontend in development mode.

yarn py-start

Runs the Python server. Make sure you follow the setup instructions to install the backend dependencies before running this.

yarn build

Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!

Deployment

The application is deployed using Heroku. For production, the Flask server serves the pre-compiled and optimized frontend build.

If new frontend changes need to be deployed, run yarn build before deploying. To deploy, run git push heroku main (you will need to set up Heroku access first).

The deployed application can be found at https://melon-reservations.herokuapp.com/.
