SiB App

SiB App is the magic tool that allows the Freelance Network to thrive in a decentralized way.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

To install SiB App, you'll need:

• A SIB server (djangoldp>=0.6.41) with the appropriate modules
• A Prosody Server (with appropriate modules
• A SMTP Server (optional)
• NodeJS on your machine

Before diving in you have to check your SIB server supports the following LDP packages:

• djangoldp_account
• djangoldp_circle
• djangoldp_dashboard
• djangoldp_joboffer
• djangoldp_conversation
• djangoldp_notification
• djangoldp_profile
• djangoldp_project
• djangoldp_skill
• oidc_provider: 'git+https://github.com/jblemee/django-oidc-provider.git@develop'

Those packages are given with the last stable version tested.

Refer to the documentation to install a SIB server with this configuration.

Build the application

In order to find your server(s) the client application needs to be assembled with the proper configuration.

Get the code of the SIB app on your machine:

git clone ...

Then create a config.json based on your needs, see Mandatory and Optional Modules on this page. For convienence a config.sample.json exists in the source.

Federated Sib App needs to use config.sample.federated.json example.

You can quickly update your API URI from the samples:

$ sed 's/http:\/\/localhost:8000/https:\/\/api.test2.startinblox.com/' config.sample.json  > config.json

Then build your new SIB App:

npm run build

The application bundle is in the dist folder, ready to be deployed everywhere as a static file.

Developpers

Serve, watch files & rebuild on change with this command:

npm run watch
