Intercom Frontend

User interface for web based intercom solution.

Frontend application for Intercom Manager.

Get Started

Pre-requisites: Node v20, yarn

yarn to install packages

cp .env.local.sample .env.local to set up local environment (do not skip!)

To use a local manager instance, set VITE_BACKEND_URL=http://0.0.0.0:8000/

yarn dev to start a dev server

Manager in Open Source Cloud

To develop against a manager in Open Source Cloud you need to provide a bearer token (service access token) in the Authorization header.

% export VITE_BACKEND_URL=https://<instance>.eyevinn-intercom-manager.auto.prod.osaas.io/
% export OSC_ACCESS_TOKEN=<personal-access-token>

To obtain the service access token you need your Open Source Cloud personal access token. You find that one in the settings menu in the user interface. Get the service access token with the following HTTP request using curl.

% curl -X 'POST' \
  'https://token.svc.prod.osaas.io/servicetoken' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H "x-pat-jwt: Bearer $OSC_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
  "serviceId": "eyevinn-intercom-manager"
}'
{"serviceId":"eyevinn-intercom-manager","token":"<service-access-token>","expiry":1718315617}

Then you start the dev server with the VITE_BACKEND_API_KEY environment variable set. Either on the comand line or stored in the shell with export VITE_BACKEND_API_KEY=<service-access-token>. The token expires after a while so you might need to refresh the token using the same curl command line above.

% VITE_BACKEND_API_KEY=<service-access-token> yarn dev

As the Open Source Cloud platform apply same-origin principle you need to disable that check in your browser when developing locally. Example below on how to start Chrome on MacOS with this check disabled.

% open -a Google\ Chrome --args --disable-web-security --user-data-dir="/tmp"

Docker Container

Build local Docker image

docker build -t intercom-frontend:dev

Run container on port 8080 and with intercom manager on https://intercom-manager.dev.eyevinn.technology/

docker run --rm -d -p 8080:8080 \
  -e PORT=8080 \
  -e MANAGER_URL=https://intercom-manager.dev.eyevinn.technology/ \
  --name=frontend \
  intercom-frontend:dev

Then the app is available at http://localhost:8080/

Stop container

docker stop frontend

Git Ways of Working

The project uses feature branches, and a rebase merge strategy.

Make sure you have git pull set to rebase mode:

git config pull.rebase true

Optionally, you can add the --global flag to the above command.

To start working on a new feature: git checkout -b <feature branch name>.

This project uses conventional commits.

Read Using Git with Discipline.

Read How to Write a Commit Message.

A commit should:

  • contain a single change set (smaller commits are better)
  • pass tests, linting, and typescript checks
  • not be broken

Along with enabling time saving automation, it enables extremely powerful debug workflows via git bisect, making bug hunting a matter of minutes. There are a number of articles out there on the magic of bisecting.

Basic structure of a commit message:

<type>[optional scope]: <title starting with verb in infinitive>

[optional body]

[optional footer]

Try to describe what was added or changed, instead of describing what the code does. Example:

fix(seek): rewrite calculation in seek module // bad, the consumer does not know what issue this fixes

fix(seek): stop player from freezing after seek // good, the consumer understands what is now working again
