SimWrapper project website

This repo contains the interactive visualization website for SimWrapper, available at https://vsp.berlin/simwrapper

This README details build instructions for the website itself.

Project pre-requisites

The site uses npm and yarn, and was developed using VS Code.

  • You should install VS Code, npm, and yarn first.
  • All code is TypeScript and shall remain so.

The following VS Code plugins are used:

  • Prettier to force code style consistencey
  • Vetur, for Vuejs support. This site is a Vue SPA.
  • Shader languages support

Foundational technologies

You will need to know this tech in order to hack on this website:

  • TypeScript - typesafe JavaScript
  • Vue - the glue that connects UI elements to code. Similar to React but lightweight and awesome
  • ThreeJS - WebGL library for the fancy animations.
  • Pug - the template language used in Vue files. Pug uses Python-style indentation instead of open/close XML tags, which makes it far easier to read than bare HTML.

First time install

One line fetches everything from the npm database:

npm ci

Development Commands

Compiling and hot-reloads during development

This command runs a local server with hot reload for testing, usually listens on http://localhost:8080

npm run serve

Compiles and minifies for production

npm run build

Run your unit tests

Well... I have not written tests but the infrastructure is there to use jest.

npm run test:unit

Pushing to the live site

Travis-CI is configured to automatically build the site with every push to master, so don't push to master until you are ready for your code to go live.

  • Travis config is in .travis.yml

Project Layout

  • /src: all TypeScript and Vue files go here
  • /src/svnConfig.ts: this file defines the file storage locations available on the front page. The svn parameter must be a valid URL pointing to an http fileserver, running either Apache, subversion, or SimpleFileServer. Other file storage could be written and placed in /src/util.
  • /src/assets: images, .csvs, etc that get packaged by webpack
  • /src/components: shared Vue components go here
  • /src/layers: shared deck.gl layer files go here
  • /src/plugins: Each plugin gets its own folder here. To create your own plugin, copy one of these, rename its folder and main .vue file, and register it in pluginRegistry.ts. Read the plugin developer guide for details.
  • /src/util: some typscript utility classes, notably including the HTTPFileServer
  • /src/views: The Vue pages that render various site pages such as the home page. Vue pages are registered in /src/router.ts
    • HomeIndex.vue: the front page. Add new thumbnails for pages or other content here.
    • FolderBrowser.vue: Project pages are rendered by this page
  • /public: large .zip files, project notes, etc go in public. These files are pushed as-is by webpack; i.e. they are not packaged in any way
  • /scripts: Python scripts go here. Most of these are used for postprocessing model results

Thank you!

Good luck and thanks for the help! -- Billy

Version 2!

Lots of recent changes including some config file breaking-changes, so it's time to bump the major version number!
