Components and Technology

This is a front-end for Susper running on Yacy server. The retrieval of search results is done using YaCy search API.

  • Solr and Javascript(JSON)

Search results are displayed using Solr server which is embedded into YaCy. All search results must be provided by a YaCy search server which includes a Solr with a specialized JSON result writer. When a search request is made in one of the search templates, a http request is made to YaCy. The response is done in JSON because that can much better be parsed than XML in JavaScript. To overcome the same orgin policy in JavaScript, the result is capsuled into a JSONP response.

Technology Stack

  • HTML - Structure of the web page generated.
  • CSS - Styling options and details ofthe web page.
  • Javascript(JSON) - Used to store information for deploying the application such as dependencies.
  • Angular-4 - Structure for deployment of the web page.

Requirements

Installation

First we will need to install angular-cli by using the following command:

$ npm install -g @angular/cli@latest

After installing angular-cli we need to install our required node modules, so we will do that by using the following command:

$ npm install

How to deploy?

Running on localhost:

  • Step 1: Fork susper repository and clone it to your desktop
  • Step 2: Then cd into that cloned folder
  • Step 3: Deploy locally by running this :$ ng serve
  • Step 4: Go to localhost:4200 where the application will be running locally.

For deploying with Github Pages:

With these very simple steps you can have susper deployed:

  • Step 1: Fork susper repository and clone it to your desktop.
  • Step 2: Then checkout to your master branch $ git checkout master
  • Step 3: Deploy running this : ng build and then npm run deploy
  • Step 4: Visit https://yourusername.github.io/susper and you should see the Susper search running.
  • Step 5: As you search you might see that that it cant find anything, to resolve this, on search you will see there is a red shield on search bar, click on it and allow to load unsafe scripts.
  • Step 6: Reload and you will have a fully functioning Susper search deployed on github pages.

For deploying with Surge:

Surge will automatically generate deployment link whenever a pull request passes Travis CI.

Suppose pull request number is 200 and it passes Travis CI. The deployment link can be found here: https://pr-200-fossasia-susper.surge.sh

Contributions, Bug Reports, Feature Requests

This is an Open Source project and we would be happy to see contributors who report bugs and file feature requests submitting pull requests as well. Please report issues here https://github.com/fossasia/susper.com/issues

Issue and Branch Policy

Before making a pull request, please file an issue. So, other developers have the chance to give feedback or discuss details. Match every pull request with an issue please and add the issue number in description e.g. like "Fixes #123".

We have the following branches:

  • gh-pages This contains shipped code. After significant features/bugfixes are accumulated on development, we make a version update, and make a release.
  • master This contains the code that is related to Angular-4 version of Susper. If you're making a contribution related to Angular issues, you are supposed to make a pull request to master. PRs must pass a build check and unit-tests check on Travis.
