About

Passalong is an alternative UI for donorschoose.org. It's primary purpose, however, is to be a learning experience for myself so that I can increase my exposure to serverless computing.

There are three top-level directories, each with a different purpose:

  • passalong-back is a Django based REST API deployed in a Lambda via Zappa
  • passalong-front is a React based front end hosted in S3
  • infra is a GeoEngineer/Terraform setup for building out the ancillary AWS infrastructure for the project

Demo

Until I get a domain, http://passalong-front.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com/ is the place to go.

Usage

Install:

  • Ruby
  • Python 3 and Pipenv
  • Node
  • Terraform

Run bundle from the top-level directory in order to download GeoEngineer and Rake.

Configure ~/.aws/credentials.

Setting up project dependencies

I'm using Node, Ruby, and Python for this project. For convenience's sake, I wrote a rake task to help with installing dependencies using the package manager for each language.

  • rake project:dependencies

Setting up the infrastructure:

  • Check to see if the plan is to your liking with rake infra:plan
  • Deploy your infrastructure with rake infra:deploy

Deploying the frontend:

A rake task to package and deploy the frontend assets to S3.

  • rake frontend:deploy

Deploying the backend:

A rake task to deploy the Django app to a Lambda via Zappa.

  • rake backend:deploy
