TIL is a simple software that aim to enable article and reflexion-sharing across all Zenika agencies in the world. It acts as an aggregator (as daily.dev can do), but on-premises and with filters on content to avoid being spammed with news that don't interest us.
If you want to develop TiL, the best way is to install NodeJS 18> on your computer, then run npm install ; npm run dev. The client will start on
port 5173.
If you simply want to run the application, Docker is the best way to do. Simply run docker build -t til-front:latest ., and
run it! Full configuration reference below.
All the configuration is done through environment variables. There is only one variable to set:
- (Mandatory)
PUBLIC_TIL_SERVER_URL: The base URL (without the leading /) to the backend. In development, you can set it in.env.developmentfile. The.envfile must stay at/api, because we are using a Nginx reverse proxy on production. You have to specify the port, otherwise nginx will mess up. A correct example is:https://til-backend.35.190.222.151.sslip.io:443.
