Description: This is the web interface for the garðr validator project.

The main purpose is to find possible errors or regressions in display ads. Its intended to grow over time to a set of rules based on best practices for performance ( although displayads not necessarily can avoid document.write atm ).

The validator takes input as a scripturl or zipfile, html,css and javascript, and produces in 3 steps harvested data and a report.

It uses phantomJS as a browser, loads in a shim on top of the PhantomJS api, runs for a 10 seconds after all hooks have been innjected and data colelcted. After phantomjs run, the preoprocessors and validators/rules runs in a series to generate a report(info, warn, debug, error...).

Install depedencies and package validator with package gardr(abit funky)

$ npm install

Run tests

$ npm test

Run server:

$ PORT=8000 npm start

Local development:

( if editing gardr-validator, run ´npm link´ in gardr-validator folder, and then link gardr-validator inside gardr-validator-web with ´npm link gardr-validator´)

$ npm run start-dev

If you need to debug output from phantomjs, add env variable TMP_DIR=/TMP_DIR.
Screenshots and json output from phantom will be outputted in a folder with id as name.

You can configure port, logfile location, etc using the config module or by specifying environment variables when starting.

$ HTTP_PORT=1337 LOG_FILE_NAME=~/mylogs/pvw npm start

Create a github issue.

YES, pull requests with tests. Be sure to create a issue and let us know you are working on it - maybe we can help out with insights etc.

(please let us know of alternatives to this project)

! Prerequisite: Get your ssh-key added to our server at [email protected].

As the setup is Ubuntu with Dokku, you can SSH into git.gardr.org and use the dokku CLI, ref https://github.com/progrium/dokku. Added a couple of Dokku-plugins for rebuild and supervisord, but they are not needed.

• Add dokku as remote to validator-web git-repo on your computer:

   git remote add [email protected]:validator
  

• Push to dokku:

   git push dokku master
  

Redeploy via dokku / (throw away logs, files and database):

    dokku rebuild:all

Run command via dokku, e.g:

    dokku run validator ls -lha

To access the docker instance via ssh, first access gardr.org, then:

    docker ps

Get containerId and insert in next command where "my_container_id":

    PID=$(docker inspect --format '{{.State.Pid}}' my_container_id)

nsenter will give you direct shell access to the running docker container:

    nsenter --target $PID --mount --uts --ipc --net --pid

• Application code will then be located in /app folder.
• Application specific logs in /app/logs.
• Leveldb are in same folder prefixed with result-db-$(version)-$(enviroment).
  • If database needs to be deleted, just remove this folder or bump the application version in package.json.
• PhantomJS files wil output in tempoary directory, names if local in app directory phantom_output_files_$(version)_$(enviroment).
  • Phantom output directory might contain debug-input-$(timestamp).json, and output-$(timestamp).json as well as screenshots named $(width)x$(height)_$(timestamp).png.
