Architecture

This project is build with BlitzJS a toolkit build upon ReactJS. Data is stored in a PostgreSQL database using Docker.

Development

For starting developing, the following steps could be helpful for getting started:

• Use or nvm to install Node.js: nvm use
• Install dependenices: npm install
• Start develop environment: npm run dev (start docker, start blitz)
• Run all checks: npm run check (check migrations, check typescript run linter, run prettier, run tests)
• Use npm run build && npx serve dist to test the build
• Husky: We run our checks on push. Use git push --no-verify to force-skip them.

There is a .env.local and a .env.production file, which provide the keys to some services.

Blitz vs. NextJS

• Blitz provides the basic file structure and conventions (Docs)
• BLitz provides the Blitz CLI (Docs), especially the generators (Docs)
• Blitz handles Authentication with Blitz Auth (Docs)
• Blitz handels the communication between server and client with Blitz RPC (Docs)
• Blitz enhances NextJS with type save routes (Docs)
• Everything else is part of Next JS and documented in the Next JS Docs.

  Note This project usees Next 12 (for now).

Getting Started

1. Setup .env.local:
   This will setup up the Environment Variables for PostgreSQL.

   cp .env.local.example .env.local
   

2. Install Docker and open it once to finish the setup:

   brew install --cask docker
   

3. Start the PostgreSQL Server
   This is done automatically with npm run dev.

   docker compose up -d
   

4. Seed your database:
   Which will also apply migrations.

   npm run seed
   

5. Run your app in the development mode:

   npm run dev
   

6. Open http://localhost:3000.

Tests

Runs your tests using Jest.

npm run test

Blitz comes with a test setup using Vitest and react-testing-library.

Working with data, database

Follow this steps to add a model with forms and pages:

1. Use blitz g all calendarEntries title:string startAt:dateTime "locationName:string?" "locationUrl:string?" "description:string?" --dry-run for scaffolding.

   • Run --dry-run first to check the folder names and file names.

2. Check db/schema.prisma if all was "translated".

3. Use npm run migrate:create (blitz prisma migrate dev --create-only) to create the migration but not run it direclty.

4. Double check the migration. For example, column renames are handled by deleting the column and adding a new one which we do not always want.

5. Use npm run migrate (blitz prisma migrate dev) to apply the migration.

6. Schema:

   • Follow the steps in src/core/templates/page/__modelIdParam__/edit.tsx to create a shared Zod schema (Docs) and add it to the form for client side validations.
   • Update the zod schema to match the Prisma schema.
     • You can use type UserType = z.infer<typeof UserSchema> to create a TS schema from zod that can be compared to the prima schema (which are located in node_modules/.prisma/client/index.d.ts)
     • You can use https://github.com/CarterGrimmeisen/zod-prisma to generate a starting point for this based on the prisma schema. However, this package should only be used in a separate branch since it collides with blitz in some way.

7. Add seed data in db/seeds.ts – all models should have good seed data.
