Spinning Up StaticCMS

Spinning Up StaticCMS

 2024-01-13 -  ~15 Minutes

Today is Saturday, January 13, 2024, and I won’t be able to watch the KC Chief’s wildcard playoff game vs. the Miami Dolphins tonight because it is streaming ONLY on Peacock, and I refuse to pay them for the “privilege” to watch it live.  So, I’m going to do something productive instead.  Let’s see if I can spin up an instance of StaticCMS   to provide an OPEN CMS for the content editor(s) behind the Wieting Theatre website   .  

The Plan

So, the plan here involves establishing a “local-only” CMS for the Wieting Theatre website   and running it on the new Ubuntu server in the Wieting’s projection booth. Editors should will be given login credentials to that server where they can run a local copy of the website (it’s a Hugo static site) AND a local copy of the CMS editor, make changes, preview them, and commit the changes to the project’s GitHub repo. The website, hosted with AWS Amplify is then automatically updated based on the updated content.

Along the Way

It’s worth noting that while looking at StaticCMS   I also stumbled upon tabcms - A CMS that runs in your browser tab   which might be of interest if “The Plan” doesn’t work.

First Steps - Start with a Template

I choose the guidance at Start with a Template   to get started. My aim is to clone that repo and build it locally “as-is”, then see if I can drop my existing wieting-ss   repo into the site directory and continue to make it work locally.

If that works, I’ll repeat the same on the Wieting’s Ubuntu server and keep pushing forward. Wish me luck?

Getting Started

Following the Local Development   guidance found me cloning this template   then…

The demo site is indeed working at http://localhost:3000/ and a vist to http://localhost:3000/admin does indeed open a StaticCMS login that’s prompting me with the following image.

Screenshot-2024-01-13-at-11.00.45

Let’s Go Local!

Next, I’m going to try and switch what we have above to “go local” using this guidance   provided in the StaticCMS documenation. Fingers crossed for good luck…

Eureka! It Works!

So, I made the local_backend config changes as prescribed in site/static/admin/config.yml and that file now looks like this:

local_backend: 
  # when using a custom proxy server port
  url: http://localhost:8082/api/v1
  # when accessing the local site from a host other than 'localhost' or '127.0.0.1'
  allowed_hosts: ['192.168.0.1']

I also added a new .env file in the project root directory with a single line reading PORT=8082, matching the port number specified in the url: value from config.yml.

Now, with npx @staticcms/proxy-server running in a local terminal I’m able to run npm start (in my VSCode terminal) to launch the site at localhost:3000. Having done that I’m able to visit http://localhost:3000/admin where I get a new StaticCMS splash screen with a simple Login button, not a Netlify button. Yay!

Even Better News?

StaticCMS was built from NetlifyCMS so the site/static/admin/config.yml. I think I’ll be able to use the collections: portion of my old admin/config.yml file from wieting-one-click-hugo-cms   to get a headstart on setting that up!

Next step… let’s see if I can drop the site directory from wieting-ss   into this local project and still have a functioning local site. Again, fingers crossed for luck.

Fresh Restart

In order to start fresh I went back to the StaticJsCMS/static-cms-hugo-netlify-template   repo and created a new fork (not a clone) in my Summitt-Services team space at https://github.com/Summitt-Services/static-cms-hugo-local-template   . In the new fork I changed the -netlify- portion of the name to -local- as this new project is intended to have no Netlify association, only a “local” CMS will be supported.

Next, I cloned the new fork to my workstation and got it working locally again using the same steps I had taken above.

Copying wieting-ss to static-cms-hugo-local-template

For safe-keeping I created a new branch named wieting in ~/GitHub/static-cms-hugo-local-template where I did this:

╭─mark@Marks-Mac-Mini ~/GitHub/static-cms-hugo-local-template ‹wieting*› 
╰─$ rsync -aruvi ../wieting-ss/. site/.
...

total size is 470,527,158  speedup is 1.66

Will it work? Let’s see… NOPE. It does produce a site but the old “Kaldi” content is still all I see. I even changed the backend.branch: value from main to wieting, but that did nothing. So, I’ve captured the output here so that I can have a look at what’s happening.

Corrections Needed

So, the first thing I see here is that the new site directory contains the template’s content/_index.md file which naturally becomes the site’s home page. It contains only “Kaldi” content. So I tried removing that _index.md file and that changed the home page “title”, but very little else.

I think returing to the main branch of this project and starting over again but using only the content of wieting-ss in the new site/ directory might be wise. I did it like this:

Again, it works. Only this time the Wieting website appears at http://localhost:3000   and http://localhost:3000/admin   works too, but with the wrong configuration. Still, that’s a WIN!

Time To Save My Progress

I really don’t want to dump 4000+ new files, many of them specific to the Wieting website, into my pristine (and working) https://github.com/Summitt-Services/static-cms-hugo-local-template   GitHub repository. So, I’m going to clean up my local project by removing that which is no longer needed, and then I’m going to remove the .git directory and create/populate a new wieting-staticCMS   private repository. After creating that empty repository the process looked like this:
