Development Environment Installation

Create a (GitHub)[http://github.com] account if you do not already have one.
Log in to your GitHub account
Go to https://github.com/atogov/RAM
Select the Fork button from the top right
- If you have not yet created a fork, you will be given that option now
  - Read https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo/ for instructions. This will give you a repository in your own account that synchronises from the ATO RAM repository. As you make changes, use pull requests to update the main repository. Don't forget to merge from ATO before creating a pull request back.

Windows

Download the Github downloader/installer
- Click on https://github-windows.s3.amazonaws.com/GitHubSetup.exe
- and accept the download to save it
- Once downloaded, run the exe
The GitHub GUI should open once install is complete
- Change shell to Bash
  - Select the tool icon on the top right
  - Selection Options... from the menu
  - In the Default shell section, choose Git Bash
While there configure your GitHub account, clone path, etc
- Close the options
- To use SourceTree for reviewing / merging pull requests, you need to modify .git/config file as described here. In short, add the following: [remote "atogov"] fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/*
Run a git bash shell
- from the GitHub GUI client
  - Select the tool icon on the top right
  - Selection Open in Git Shell from the menu
- curl -SLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/atogov/RAM/develop/install/ram-dev-win.sh
- ./ram-dev-win.sh your-github-name
  - Clones a local copy of your FORK of RAM
  - Uses npm/tsd/jspm to install dependencies
  - Installs MongoDB
  - Installs Node 6.x.x
  - Installs Visual Studio Code

Windows Manual installation - Windows 7

Download and install latest version of MongoDB
Install python 2.7 and make sure it is also on the PATH
Install NodeJs 6.x.x
npm config set python python2.7 --global
npm config set msvs_version 2015 --global
Install VC++ Build Tools Technical Preview from http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=691132, choose Custom Install, and select both Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 SDKs.
npm install typescript tslint eslint gulp-cli jasmine jspm -g
cd backend; npm install
cd frontend; npm install; jspm install

Some further notes - getting it running on Windows 10

Rather than running the ram-dev-win.sh file above, I did things manually

Installed git as per usual and cloned project
Installed MongoDB
- from https://www.mongodb.com/download-center?jmp=nav#community
- downloaded Windows Server 2008 R2 64-bit and later, with SSL support
- created c:\data\db
- opened up a command line to C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.2\bin and ran mongod
- Installed RoboMongo to check it was working
Installed NodeJs latest 6.x.x from https://nodejs.org/en/ (not the recommended 4.x.x)
Installed Python 2.7 (not 3.x)
Ran npm install --global --production windows-build-tools
- note bash shell has to be running as administrator
Set RAM_CONF as a user environment variable
- Win-Break > Change settings > Advanced > Environment variables > New
- Variable name: RAM_CONF
- Variable value: Q:\<path to code>\RAM\backend\conf\conf-localhost.js
- (and make sure to restart your shell)
Ran ./ram deps:backend, ./ram deps:frontend, ./ram db:seed etc as per usual

AWS Install

Each server requires its own configuration file. Template configuration file at conf/conf.js. You must set an environment variable called RAM_CONF pointing to the absolute path of your configuration file. Once you set your RAM_CONF environment variable you can run the server by calling gulp serve.
SSH to the server
- curl -SLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/atogov/RAM/develop/install/aws.sh
- sudo bash aws-init.sh
  - creates /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
  - installs NGINX
  - installs Nodejs
  - installs MongoDB
  - creates /ram/update.sh
  - runs /ram/update.sh
    - downloads and unpacks latest copy of RAM from GitHub
    - npm update to update dependencies
    - restart RAM server

From the Server

SSH to the server and run /ram/update.sh hhhhhh where hhhhhh is the hash of the commit you want to run. It can also be a tag or branch name. If not supplied, develop is used.

From the UI (Dev env only)

From a browser run http://ramvm01.expoctest.com/dev. Enter a branch/tag/hash and press the appropriate button.

The Development Process

Fork and clone https://github.com/atogov/RAM if you haven't already. This need only be done once per developer.
Open Git Shell
Run ./ram.sh backend server&
Run ./ram.sh frontend server&
Wait patentially. Eventually a browser page will open
For each task:
- Refresh your clone from RAM or another fork if that is the base you need.
- Repeat...
  - Enable tests you want to work on.
  - Run Jasmine for a service called nnnnn. If the optional describe text is provided, only the describe() that matches the text will run. Otherwise all tests in the file execute.
  - If it fails, add code to one of the service actions

The `ram` script

At the root of the project, there is a ram script which provides a self documenting list of useful commands from setting up the environment to running the frontend/backend and executing tests. You can see the list of commands simply by executing:

./ram

Here is a list of support commands:


       ram <command>

   Commands:

       setup                                      Setups local workstation
       deps                                       Downloads all dependencies

       start:backend                              Starts local backend server
       start:frontend-no-lint                     Starts local frontend server without linting

       merge:upstream <branch>                    Merges from upstream, <value> is branch name (eg develop)

For the test, you can limit the test by a pattern. For example:

./ram test:backend --test relationshipType.model

Jasmine from the Client

You may prefer to test your service from a browser. You can then select individual tests as needed. The browser will need to include

RAM/microservices/node_modules/ram/service/request.js
RAM/microservices/nnnnn/spec.js

PM2 - Production Process Manager

Full use has yet to be explored. For development the watch can be set to restart on file changes. To do this we need to set up environments so that it only does so on development. This is a matter of setting and using environent variable within ecosystem.json.

JSPM & Travis

While using jspm, specifically jspm install you can run into the error GitHub rate limit reached.. This is due to github rate limiting by IP address, which happens quite often while using Travis.

This is the recommended solution from jspm:

login to github
create a personal access key with the public_repo scope
run on your computer jspm registry config github and enter your github login and access key
export the auth key defined after jspm config registries.github.auth
login to travis to your fork and create the environment variable JSPM_GITHUB_AUTH_TOKEN and set this jspm auth key

Travis

While working on the travis configuration file you can validate it using the following commands

rvm install 2.1.5
rvm gemset create ram
rvm use 2.1.5@ato-ram
gem install travis
travis lint
