Quick start

  1. Clone project

    git clone https://github.com/flotiq/scully-blog-starter
  2. Setup "Blog Post" Content Type in Flotiq

    Create your Flotiq.com account. Next, create the Blog Post Content Type:

    Blog Post content type in flotiq

    Note: You can also create Blog Post using Flotiq REST API.

  3. Configure application

    The next step is to configure our application to know from where it has to fetch the data.

    In src/environments/environment.prod.ts, in src/environments/environment.ts and in src/environments/environment.js change YOUR_FLOTIQ_API_KEY to Read only Flotiq API key.

    Remember to change them back to YOUR_FLOTIQ_API_KEY before committing code to repository.

  4. Start developing

        cd scully-blog-starter/
        npm install

    If you wish to import example projects to your account install flotiq-cli, and run in project directory:

        flotiq import . [flotiqApiKey]

    It will add 1 image and 2 blog posts to your Flotiq account.

    Note: You need to put your Read and write API key as the flotiqApiKey for import to work. You don't need the Blog Post content type in your account. If you already have posts with ids blogpost-1 and blogpost-2 they will be overwritten.

    Run npm run start for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

    If you wish to add new elements to the project run npm run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive|pipe|service|class|guard|interface|enum|module.

    Run npm run build:prod to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the --prod flag for a production build.

    To build the static version with Scully run:

    npm run build --prod
    npm run scully -- --scanRoutes
    npm run scully serve

    This will start the Scully static server on http://localhost:1668/
