Development

1. Ensure you have Node, NPM, and Grunt installed.
2. Run "npm install" to install necessary dependencies.
3. Install Apache 2.4 and configure it such that it can find src/index.html
4. Run "grunt less" and then "grunt watch" to compile LESS to CSS and monitor for changes.
5. Navigate to src.streamus.com in your browser.
6. To build a release, run "grunt build". Versioning is not yet supported.

Apache Configuration for Windows: In order to develop Streamus' website properly you'll need to configure Apache. A few things are needed:

• You'll want to navigate to your hosts file and add entries for: "127.0.0.1 src.streamus.com" and "127.0.0.1 dist.streamus.com". This will allow for named websites instead of just localhost which helps satisfy CORS.
• You then need to modify your VHosts to expect these websites. My config looks like:

<VirtualHost src.streamus.com:80=''>
  DocumentRoot "${WEBSITEROOT}/src"
  ServerName src.streamus.com
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost dist.streamus.com:80=''>
  DocumentRoot "${WEBSITEROOT}/dist"
  ServerName dist.streamus.com
</VirtualHost>

where WEBSITEROOT points to my src directory such as:

Define WEBSITEROOT "/Users/Meo/Documents/GitHub/StreamusWebsite"

Server settings: Be sure to set localDebug to false in application.js unless you have a local instance of Streamus' server running.
