Overview

Boilerplate code for a bare bones React frontend that can be used to build UI demos and examples on the Cloud Elements APIs. Keep in mind that Cloud Elements is a server-side API library, production applications should not store keys or make API calls directly from client-side code. This project is meerly a source of sample code intended as a tool for gaining familiarity with the Cloud Elements APIs in a user-facing example.

The goal for this code base is to be as beginner friendly as possible. The app has a crude routing implementation and does not utilize any 3rd party state management tools. In addition, it does not include a connected backend, it utilizes browser based local storage for occasions where a backend database would be useful. If you're interested in a version of this app that contains additional functionality, please file an issue.

Installation

If you don't have node and npm installed, do that first.

PROTIP: node version must be >= 7.5.0 and npm version must be >= 4.1.2

Navigate into the project directory and install package dependencies.

# Make sure you are in the correct directory
$ cd cloud-elements-boilerplate

# Install all necessary npm packages:
$ npm install
# or
$ yarn install

Create an environment file to store keys and tokens

 $ touch .env
 # or 
 touch .env.local

Add your Cloud Elements keys to the .env file:

## Cloud Elements keys
REACT_APP_CE_USER={your-cloud-elements-user-token}
REACT_APP_CE_ORG={your-cloud-elements-org-token}
REACT_APP_CE_ENV=[optional for using staging or snapshot, app defaults to production]

Add your vendor OAuth app keys to the .env file. Only one is needed for the app to function, but total number is unlimited. These keys are utilized in the LoginCardList component.

## Vendor App keys
REACT_APP_HUBSPOT_KEY={your-hubspot-oauth-app-key}
REACT_APP_HUBSPOT_SECRET={your-hubspot-oauth-app-secret}

Add the https url where your app is available so that vendor OAuth flows know where to return to after a user signs in.

## Misc
REACT_APP_URL=https://c720e32b.ngrok.io
