Kick off your project with this default boilerplate. This starter ships with the main Gatsby configuration files the blazing fast app generator for React. Integrating with Typescript for type checking as well as Jest for unit testing. Provide smooth development experience and CI/CD pipeline with CircleCI and Netlify built in.

🚀 Quick start

Clone this Repo

# clone this repo via github link
git clone https://github.com/tripheo0412/React-Gatsby-Contentful-Typescript-CircleCI-Netlify-Boilerplate.git

Install all packages

Using either yarn/npm install

cd React-Gatsby-Typescript-CircleCI-Netlify-Boilerplate
yarn

cd React-Gatsby-Typescript-CircleCI-Netlify-Boilerplate
npm install

Add Contentful
Sign up account on Contentful.
Create new space.
Go to Space's setting -> Api keys -> Generate new Personal Access Tokens -> Add token to .env file.

```bash
CONTENTFUL_SPACE_ID <your generated Contentful personal access token>
CONTENTFUL_ACCESS_TOKEN <your Space ID>
```

Go to Space's setting -> Add Space's ID to .env file.


```bash
CONTENTFUL_SPACE_ID <your generated Contentful personal access token>
CONTENTFUL_ACCESS_TOKEN <your Space ID>
```

Go to gatsby-config.js remove comment on contentful plugin.

Add Gatsby-Contentful-Plugin

```bash
yarn add gatsby-source-contentful
```

Voila! You are ready to go!

Setting up CI/CD
Registered your account on CircleCI and Netlify.
Get Netlify Site ID + generate Netlify personal access token.
Connect project github repo to CircleCI, go to project settings, click on environment variables and add 2 variables.
```
NETLIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN <your generated Netlify personal access token>
NETLIFY_SITE_ID <your Netlify Site ID>
```
After setting this up, everytime you push, CircleCI will check for lint + testing error, if passed you can click details in CircleCI check and see the Web URL deployed on Netlify.
Note that for master branch, CircleCI will build the App and release to Netlify with tag --prod for Production deployment.
Open the source code and start editing!
```
yarn start
```
or
```
npm run start
```
Your site is now running at http://localhost:8000!
Note: You'll also see a second link: http://localhost:8000/___graphql. This is a tool you can use to experiment with querying your data. Learn more about using this tool in the Gatsby tutorial.
Open the React-Gatsby-Typescript-CircleCI-Netlify-Boilerplate directory in your code editor of choice and edit src/pages/index.js. Save your changes and the browser will update in real time!

/circleci: This directory contains CircleCI configuration file. Note that there are 2 types of job: build (for every push to any branch beside master) and release (for master branch - production deployment).
.storybook/: This directory contains all the configuration files for Storybook.
/config: This directory contains all the configuration files for Jest testing.
/node_modules: This directory contains all of the modules of code that your project depends on (npm packages) are automatically installed.
/src: This directory will contain all of the code related to what you will see on the front-end of your site (what you see in the browser) such as your site header or a page template. src is a convention for “source code”.
.gitignore: This file tells git which files it should not track / not maintain a version history for.
.prettierrc: This is a configuration file for Prettier. Prettier is a tool to help keep the formatting of your code consistent.
gatsby-browser.js: This file is where Gatsby expects to find any usage of the Gatsby browser APIs (if any). These allow customization/extension of default Gatsby settings affecting the browser.
gatsby-config.js: This is the main configuration file for a Gatsby site. This is where you can specify information about your site (metadata) like the site title and description, which Gatsby plugins you’d like to include, etc. (Check out the config docs for more detail).
gatsby-node.js: This file is where Gatsby expects to find any usage of the Gatsby Node APIs (if any). These allow customization/extension of default Gatsby settings affecting pieces of the site build process.
gatsby-ssr.js: This file is where Gatsby expects to find any usage of the Gatsby server-side rendering APIs (if any). These allow customization of default Gatsby settings affecting server-side rendering.
jest-preprocess.js: This file contains babel options to build gatsby project for Jest testing
jest.config.js: This file contains all of Jest configurations.
LICENSE: This boilerplate is licensed under the MIT license.
loadershim.js: This files contains loader setting for Jest.
package.json: A manifest file for Node.js projects, which includes things like metadata (the project’s name, author, etc). This manifest is how npm knows which packages to install for your project.
README.md: A text file containing useful reference information about your project.
tsconfig.json: This file contains all of typescript configurations for type checking.
tslint.json: This file contains all of typescript linting configurations, integrating with prettier.
yarn.lock/package-lock.json (See package.json below, first). This is an automatically generated file based on the exact versions of your npm dependencies that were installed for your project. (You won’t change this file directly).
