Redox Destination Sample

This is an example of how to use the @ingenious-redox/destination-middleware package.

Instructions

To build a Redox Engine destination you should follow the "Create Destination" guide from the Redox documentation, once you have that setup, you can then configure this project.

Install

$ git clone https://github.com/ingenious-agency/destination-middleware-sample
$ cd destination-middleware-sample
$ npm install
$ touch .env

Create an .env file

At this point you should have an empty .env file that should have two declared variables:

PORT=3000
VERIFICATION_TOKEN=something-from-redox

The VERIFICATION_TOKEN key should be the same that's configured on the redox site.

Set up a tunnel

Because the Redox engine will call your app over the internet it's convenient to develop using a tunnel, this app uses the localtunnel package that lets you choose a subdomain of the localtunnel.me domain that you can configure as your API endpoint on Redox.

Go to the package.json and change the tunnel task with a subdomain name that makes sense to you like redox-dev-app, go ahead and turn on your local tunnel with npm run tunnel something similar to this should appear on the console:

$ npm run tunnel

$ redox-integration@1.0.0 tunnel /Users/cherta/workspace/ingsw/redox-integration
$ lt --port 3000 --subdomain redox-dev-app

your url is: https://redox-dev-app.localtunnel.me

After the tunnel is up you can go to the Redox portal and configure your destination API Endpoint to the tunnel url.

Start the server

Start the server by executing the two provided tasks in two different sessions:

$ npm run dev

$ npm run tunnel

This should start your server with live reload and also the tunnel to make your dev environment accessible from the internet.
