Making Do Recipes

An Elasticsearch and React App to find and share recipes for people with allergies.

Run

1. Clone this repo and cd into it.
2. Make sure Elasticsearch is setup. You will need to PUT /recipe the contents of mappings/mapping.json. Do the same with mappings/mapping.json into /subscription.
3. Set environment variables. (Important to do this before 3, because the following step will build the React app which looks at environment variables)
4. npm install
5. npm start or heroku local web

Environment Variables

• ELASTICSEARCH_HOST - The Elasticsearch connection string
• ADMIN_USERNAME - The admin username
• ADMIN_PASSWORD - MD5 hex of the admin password
• TOKEN_KEY - Key to create token cookie for login
• REACT_APP_TINY_KEY - API key for Tiny Cloud
• REACT_APP_GA_TRACKER - Google Analytics tracking code
• NODE_ENV - Set to to development to avoid the HTTPS redirect
• PORT - Completely optional - sets the port of the Express server
• MAILER_EMAIL - The email address to send emails from
• MAILER_PASSWORD - The password of the email to send emails from
• MAILER_HOST - The SMTP host to send emails from
• MAILER_PORT - The port to send emails from

Admin Login

Visit /login.html and login. A cookie will be set appropriately. You will then be allowed to search for unapproved recipes, edit recipes, delete recipes, and approve recipes. To approve a recipe, simply edit and submit it while logged in.

Development

When you run npm install it will build the react app present in /assets. You may want to run the react server, so you get nice features such as auto-refresh. To do this, simply cd to /assets and run npm start while the main server is also running. You will want to set the NODE_ENV environment variable. You may need to change the proxy line in /assets/package.json to point to the correct port of the Express server.

Running tests

Set the ELASTICSEARCH_HOST,TEST_USERNAME, and TEST_PASSWORD environment variables to the Elasticsearch host string, admin username, and admin password (not MD5'd) respectively. Then run: node tests/test.js. The output should not throw any errors or display anything in red. In addition, it should tell you when bad documents are blocked.

Updating Elasticsearch Index

1. PUT the mapping.json file contents to /recipe_test
2. Run:

POST _reindex
{
  "source": {
    "index": "recipe"
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "recipe_test"
  }
}

3. Do a test search to make sure all the documents copied to recipe_test
4. DELETE /recipe
5. PUT the mapping.json file contents to /recipe
6. Run

POST _reindex
{
  "source": {
    "index": "recipe_test"
  },
  "dest": {
    "index": "recipe"
  }
}

6. Make sure all the results are now available on Making Do Recipes and run DELETE /recipe_test
