A customizable survey.
Live demo here.
- Client: React
- Server: Lightweight PHP script
- Storage: A single text file
npm
andnode
installed locally- A web server with
- PHP
- A public-facing URL
- A writeable folder for your survey code
-
Clone repo and run
npm install
. -
Edit
/src/survey-data.js
file and create your survey. A sample survey is given at/src/survey-data.example.js
; you can copy/paste from there for some example questions. -
Edit the
/package.json
file and change thehomepage
property to be the full path to where you will deploy your survey (no trailing slash - e.g. http://my.web.site/my/survey). -
Run
npm start
to see an example of the survey. Note that submitting the survey will send a request to a PHP script inhomepage
. This script won't be there until you deploy, and even if it is there they will likely fail due to CORS (see/CORS.md
if you want to get around this). -
If your web server is not serving over SSL (i.e.
https
vs.http
), delete/public/.htaccess
, as it forces all traffic to be redirected over SSL. -
Run
npm run build
to prepare your survey for deployment. Copy the contents of/build
tohomepage
on your server to deploy. Make sure that PHP has write access tosubmissions.txt
, as it will write the results of your survey responses to the same location. -
View survey responses in the
submissions.txt
file in thehomepage
folder.
In the project directory, you can run:
Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.
The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.
Builds the app for production to the build
folder.
It correctly 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!
See the section about deployment for more information.
Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject
, you can’t go back!
If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject
at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.
Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject
will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.
You don’t have to ever use eject
. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.
