Contest Application (with React & Apollo)

An appliction for creating and managing contests created by several organizations.

⚠️ Graphcool will be sunsetted July 1, 2020, so I need to change the backend code 😑

Getting Started

1. Download the example

git clone git@github.com:kiranlm/contest.git
cd server

2. Create your Graphcool service

# Install latest version of the Graphcool CLI
npm install -g graphcool

# Install dependencies and deploy service
yarn install
graphcool deploy

When prompted which cluster you want to deploy to, choose any of the Shared Clusters options (shared-eu-west-1, shared-ap-northeast-1 or shared-us-west-2).

Note: The service's schema is created based on the type definitions in ./server/types.graphql.

3. Connect the app with your GraphQL API

Paste the Simple API endpoint from the previous step to ./src/index.js as the uri argument in the createHttpLink call:

// replace `__SIMPLE_API_ENDPOINT__` with the endpoint from the previous step
const httpLink = new createHttpLinkHttpLink({ uri: '__SIMPLE_API_ENDPOINT__' });

Note: You can get access to your endpoint using the graphcool info command.

4. Install dependencies & run locally

Navigate back into the root directory of the project, install the dependencies and run the app:

cd ..
yarn install
yarn start

You can now use the app at http://localhost:3000.
