Static Web App for Sunrise Standup

Sunrise Standup

Sunrise Standup is a status update application built as a demo for Build 2020. It allows users to submit a 15 second status update video clip and displays those clips in order by date in a feed. The user's location is recorded and displayed on an interactive map.

Setup Azure Resources

Before you can run the application, you'll need to setup Azure Storage (for uploading videos) and Azure Maps for the interactive map. You'll need to setup both of those resources and copy the correct keys into the app settings files.

1. Rename the "api/local.settings.json.rename" to "api/local.settings.json".

2. Rename the ".env.rename" to ".env"

Setup Azure Storage

1. Create a new Azure Storage account.

2. Create two containers - "raw" and "thumbnails". The "raw" folder holds the videos, and the "thumbnails" folder will hold the video thubnails.

3. From the "Access keys" section, copy the following values into the "local.settings.json" file.

   Access key setting	local.settings.json setting
   Storage account name	STORAGE_ACCOUNT
   Key	STORAGE_KEY
   Connection string	STORAGE_CONNECTION_STRING

4. Set the value of "STORAGE_ACCOUNT" in the ".env" file.

Setup Azure Maps

1. Create a new Azure Map

2. Copy the "Primary key" to the "MAP_KEY" setting of the ".env" file.
