Prototype for passport journeys.

This is version 2 of the prototype; version 1 can be found at https://github.com/UKHomeOffice/passports-prototype.

git clone https://github.com/UKHomeOffice/passports-prototype-v2.git

cd to the directory where the project is, then run:

npm install

npm start

This will build sources, and serve pages.

Gulp is used to compile and watch assets.

Browsersync watches HTML files for changes and reloads automatically on port 3001.

Visit https://hmpo-prototypes.herokuapp.com in your browser.

It may take a few seconds to load.

Get yourself a Heroku account and added to the prototype app.

Add the Heroku remote (that you will push to, to deploy):

heroku git:remote -a hmpo-prototypes

To deploy the master branch:

git push heroku master

Once your prototype is ready for testing, it’s time to create an archived version.

Below is a step-by-step process on how to do this.

git tag YYMMDD-feature-name

Alternatively, you can add a message with your tag, similar to commits. This is known as an annotated tag:

git tag -a YYMMDD-feature-name -m "First iteration of feature-name for lab 1"

git push --tags origin master

You should be able to see that git has pushed your tag to the remote:

To https://github.com/UKHomeOffice/passports-prototype-v2.git
* [new tag]           YYMMDD-feature-name -> YYMMDD-feature-name

Tags can be checked out similar to branches.

If you're not already at the specific commit you want to archive:

git checkout YYMMDD-feature-name

Create a new branch from that specific commit/tag:

git checkout -b archive/feature-branch-name-v1

Make relevant changes, such as removing links from the startpage, the navigation bar, etc.

git commit -m “Update start page to archive feature-name lab session 1”

git push origin +archive/feature-branch-name-v1

Each prototype archive will be hosted on a separate Heroku app.

heroku apps:create --region eu hmpo-YYMMDD-feature-name -r heroku-feature-name-v1

hmpo-YYMMDD-feature-name becomes the subdomain in the URL of the Heroku app.

heroku-feature-name-v1 is the remote added to your repository.

To deploy from another branch, where archive/feature-branch-name-v1 is the branch you want to push:

git push heroku-feature-name-v1 archive/feature-branch-name-v1:master
