docs: describe the system that exists, not the one we started with
The README still opened on "Primary School Compass", a KS2 tool for Wandsworth and Merton served by FastAPI and vanilla JavaScript with Chart.js. Every layer of that sentence is now wrong: coverage is England-wide across KS2, KS4, all-through and post-16, Next.js owns the public UI, and school data comes from dbt-built `marts.*` rather than CSVs loaded at startup. The setup instructions walked a reader into a virtualenv and a CSV import that cannot build the current schema, so following the docs produced an empty database and a wrong mental model at the same time. Replace the narrative docs with two reference documents that were checked against the code: docs/ARCHITECTURE.md for request flow, data ownership, the backend/frontend module boundaries and the real publication sequence, and docs/DEVELOPMENT.md for the checks that actually run, including the container and CI version skew that makes "just run pytest" misleading. The env examples drifted the same way. ALLOWED_ORIGINS is a JSON array, not a comma-separated list; the frontend needs FASTAPI_URL, DATABASE_URL and PAYLOAD_SECRET, none of which were documented; and RATE_LIMIT_BURST, DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE and MAX_PAGE_SIZE were presented as tuning controls the routes do not consult. Each is now stated as it behaves. MIGRATION_SUMMARY.md keeps its content but gains a banner, because it reads like setup instructions and is not.

# Docker deployment
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Quick Start
|
The maintained deployment runbook is [docs/DEPLOY.md](docs/DEPLOY.md).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Deploy the complete SchoolCompare stack (PostgreSQL + FastAPI + Next.js) with one command:
|
- Production: `docker-compose.portainer.yml`, using `:prod` images.
|
||||||
|
- Staging: `docker-compose.portainer.staging.yml`, using `:staging` images.
|
||||||
|
- Builds and deployment: `.gitea/workflows/deploy.yml`.
|
||||||
|
- Human-approved production promotion: `.gitea/workflows/promote.yml`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
The generic `docker-compose.yml` is not a supported one-command onboarding path:
|
||||||
docker-compose up -d
|
it still uses `:latest` tags that the release workflow no longer publishes and
|
||||||
```
|
lacks the full current CMS setup. Review the [legacy inventory](docs/LEGACY_CODE.md)
|
||||||
|
before using old compose examples. Starting an empty database does not populate
|
||||||
|
school marts.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This will start:
|
For architecture, configuration and test commands, see

```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Initial Database Setup
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
After first start, you may need to initialize the database:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Enter the backend container
|
|
||||||
docker exec -it schoolcompare_backend bash
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Run migrations or data loading
|
|
||||||
python -m backend.data_loader
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Accessing Services
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Once running:
|
|
||||||
- **Frontend**: http://localhost:3000
|
|
||||||
- **Backend API**: http://localhost:8000/api
|
|
||||||
- **API Docs**: http://localhost:8000/docs (Swagger UI)
|
|
||||||
- **Database**: localhost:5432 (use any PostgreSQL client)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Environment Variables
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Create a `.env` file in the root directory to customize:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```env
|
|
||||||
# Database
|
|
||||||
POSTGRES_USER=schoolcompare
|
|
||||||
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=your_secure_password
|
|
||||||
POSTGRES_DB=schoolcompare
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Backend
|
|
||||||
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://schoolcompare:your_secure_password@db:5432/schoolcompare
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Frontend (for client-side access)
|
|
||||||
NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL=http://localhost:8000/api
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Then run:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
docker-compose up -d
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Troubleshooting
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Backend not connecting to database
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Check database health
|
|
||||||
docker-compose ps
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# View backend logs
|
|
||||||
docker-compose logs backend
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Restart backend
|
|
||||||
docker-compose restart backend
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Frontend not connecting to backend
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Check backend health
|
|
||||||
curl http://localhost:8000/api/data-info
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Check Next.js environment variables
|
|
||||||
docker exec schoolcompare_nextjs env | grep API
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Port already in use
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Change ports in docker-compose.yml
|
|
||||||
# For example, change "3000:3000" to "3001:3000"
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Rebuild from scratch
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
docker-compose down -v
|
|
||||||
docker system prune -a
|
|
||||||
docker-compose up -d --build
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Production Deployment
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For production, update the following:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. **Use secure passwords** in `.env` file
|
|
||||||
2. **Configure reverse proxy** (Nginx) in front of Next.js
|
|
||||||
3. **Enable HTTPS** with SSL certificates
|
|
||||||
4. **Set production environment variables**:
|
|
||||||
```env
|
|
||||||
NODE_ENV=production
|
|
||||||
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=<strong-password>
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
5. **Backup database** regularly:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
docker exec schoolcompare_db pg_dump -U schoolcompare schoolcompare > backup.sql
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||

# Primary School Compass 🧒📚
|
# SchoolCompare
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A modern web application for comparing **primary school (KS2)** performance data in **Wandsworth and Merton** over the last 5 years. Built with FastAPI and vanilla JavaScript with Chart.js visualizations.
|
SchoolCompare compares schools across England: primary (KS2), secondary (KS4),
|
||||||
|
all-through and post-16 provision, with coverage depending on the source dataset.
|
||||||
|
It provides school search, postcode maps, comparisons, rankings, place pages,
|
||||||
|
Ofsted information, admissions and destination measures. Editorial content lives
|
||||||
|
in a Payload CMS blog.

|
|
||||||
| **Reading, Writing & Maths Combined %** | Percentage meeting expected standard in all three subjects |
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Quick Start
|
PostgreSQL/PostGIS stores school data. Meltano/Singer extracts source data;
|
||||||
|
dbt builds `marts.*`; FastAPI reads those tables. Typesense serves text search
|
||||||
|
and autocomplete. Payload runs inside Next.js and owns a separate `payload`
|
||||||
|
database schema and uploaded media.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 1. Clone and Setup
|
There is **no automatic CSV import or sample dataset on startup**. A working
|
||||||
|
school-data environment needs populated marts from the pipeline or an approved
|
||||||
|
database snapshot. See [development](docs/DEVELOPMENT.md) before choosing a setup.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
## Validation
|
||||||
cd school_results
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Create virtual environment
|
```sh
|
||||||
python -m venv venv
|
cd nextjs-app
|
||||||
source venv/bin/activate # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
|
npm ci
|
||||||
|
npm run typecheck
|
||||||
# Install dependencies
|
npm test -- --runInBand
|
||||||
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 2. Run the Application
|
Backend checks, pipeline validation, runtime versions and E2E requirements are
|
||||||
|
listed in [DEVELOPMENT.md](docs/DEVELOPMENT.md). No `npm run lint` script is
|
||||||
|
currently defined.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
## Deployment
|
||||||
# Start the server
|
|
||||||
python -m uvicorn backend.app:app --reload --port 8000
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Then open http://localhost:8000 in your browser.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The app will run with **sample data** by default, showing **110 primary schools** (66 in Wandsworth, 44 in Merton) with 5 years of KS2 performance data.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### 3. (Optional) Use Real Data
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To use real UK school performance data:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Visit [Compare School Performance - Download Data](https://www.compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk/download-data)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. Download **Key Stage 2** data for the years you want (2019-2024)
|
|
||||||
- Select "Key Stage 2" as the data type
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. Place the CSV files in the `data/` folder
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
4. Restart the server - it will automatically load and filter to Wandsworth & Merton schools
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Note:** The app only displays schools in Wandsworth and Merton. Data from other areas will be filtered out.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
See the helper script for more details:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
python scripts/download_data.py
|
|
||||||
```

## Data Format
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If using your own CSV data, ensure it includes these columns (or similar):
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
| Column | Type | Description |
|
|
||||||
|--------|------|-------------|
|
|
||||||
| URN | Integer | Unique Reference Number |
|
|
||||||
| SCHNAME | String | School name |
|
|
||||||
| LA | String | Local Authority (must be Wandsworth or Merton) |
|
|
||||||
| READPROG | Float | Reading progress score |
|
|
||||||
| WRITPROG | Float | Writing progress score |
|
|
||||||
| MATPROG | Float | Maths progress score |
|
|
||||||
| PTRWM_EXP | Float | % meeting expected standard in reading, writing & maths |
|
|
||||||
| PTREAD_EXP | Float | % meeting expected standard in reading |
|
|
||||||
| PTWRIT_EXP | Float | % meeting expected standard in writing |
|
|
||||||
| PTMAT_EXP | Float | % meeting expected standard in maths |
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The application normalizes column names automatically and filters to only show Wandsworth and Merton schools.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Technology Stack
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Backend**: FastAPI (Python) - High-performance async API framework
|
|
||||||
- **Frontend**: Vanilla JavaScript with Chart.js
|
|
||||||
- **Styling**: Custom CSS with CSS variables for theming
|
|
||||||
- **Data**: Pandas for CSV processing
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Design Philosophy
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The UI features a warm, editorial design inspired by quality publications:
|
|
||||||
- **Typography**: DM Sans for body text, Playfair Display for headings
|
|
||||||
- **Color Palette**: Warm cream background with coral and teal accents
|
|
||||||
- **Interactions**: Smooth animations and hover effects
|
|
||||||
- **Charts**: Clean, readable data visualizations
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Development
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Run with auto-reload
|
|
||||||
python -m uvicorn backend.app:app --reload --port 8000
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Or run directly
|
|
||||||
python backend/app.py
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Coverage
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This application is specifically designed for:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **School Phase**: Primary schools only (Key Stage 2)
|
|
||||||
- **Geographic Area**: Wandsworth and Merton (London boroughs)
|
|
||||||
- **Time Period**: Last 5 years of data (2020-2024)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Note: 2021 data shows as unavailable because SATs were cancelled due to COVID-19.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Data Source
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Data is sourced from the UK Government's [Compare School Performance](https://www.compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk/) service, which provides official school performance data for England.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Important**: When using real data, please comply with the [terms of use](https://www.compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk/download-data) and data protection regulations.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Scheduled Jobs
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Geocoding Schools (Cron Job)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
School postcodes are geocoded by a scheduled job, not on-demand. This improves performance and reduces API calls.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Setup the cron job** (runs weekly on Sunday at 2am):
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Edit crontab
|
|
||||||
crontab -e
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Add this line (adjust paths as needed):
|
|
||||||
0 2 * * 0 cd /path/to/school_compare && /path/to/venv/bin/python scripts/geocode_schools.py >> /var/log/geocode_schools.log 2>&1
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**Manual run:**
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Geocode only schools missing coordinates
|
|
||||||
python scripts/geocode_schools.py
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Force re-geocode all schools
|
|
||||||
python scripts/geocode_schools.py --force
|
|
||||||
```

|
||||||
## Overview
|
## Maintained documentation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
SchoolCompare is a web application for comparing UK primary school (KS2) performance data. It allows users to:
|
Read [README.md](README.md), [docs/ARCHITECTURE.md](docs/ARCHITECTURE.md) and
|
||||||
- Search and browse schools by name, location (postcode), or local authority
|
[docs/DEVELOPMENT.md](docs/DEVELOPMENT.md) for the current implementation.
|
||||||
- Compare multiple schools side-by-side with charts and tables
|
[docs/LEGACY_CODE.md](docs/LEGACY_CODE.md) records obsolete paths and deliberate
|
||||||
- View school rankings by various KS2 metrics
|
compatibility code. Historical design documents are not current setup instructions.
|
||||||
- See historical performance trends across years
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Architecture
|
## Architecture constraints
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Backend (Python/FastAPI)
|
- Next.js serves the public UI. FastAPI serves school data from dbt-built `marts.*`.
|
||||||
- **Framework**: FastAPI with uvicorn
|
The backend does not create school tables or import CSVs at startup.
|
||||||
- **Database**: PostgreSQL with SQLAlchemy ORM
|
- School coverage spans England and multiple phases, not only primary schools in
|
||||||
- **Data Source**: UK Government "Compare School Performance" CSV downloads
|
Wandsworth and Merton.
|
||||||
|
- `/api/*` belongs to the FastAPI proxy. Payload uses `/cms-api` and `/admin`.
|
||||||
Key files:
|
- Payload runs inside Next.js, with its own `payload` schema and persistent media.
|
||||||
- `backend/app.py` - Main FastAPI application, API routes
|
Keep CMS migrations independent of school-data transformations.
|
||||||
- `backend/config.py` - Configuration via pydantic-settings (env vars, .env file)
|
- Public and Payload route groups have separate root layouts. Do not introduce
|
||||||
- `backend/database.py` - SQLAlchemy engine, session management
|
`app/layout.tsx`. Keep site-wide metadata files at the `app/` root.
|
||||||
- `backend/models.py` - Database models (School, SchoolResult)
|
- Builds must succeed with `DATABASE_URL` unset. Do not call `getCachedPayload()`
|
||||||
- `backend/data_loader.py` - Data queries, geocoding, legacy DataFrame compatibility
|
at module scope or add DB-backed `generateStaticParams`.
|
||||||
- `backend/schemas.py` - Column mappings, metric definitions, LA code mappings
|
- After changing CMS fields/editors, run `npm run generate:importmap` and commit
|
||||||
|
the generated import map. See `nextjs-app/docs/PUBLISHING.md`.
|
||||||
### Content / CMS (Payload)
|
- The backend and pipeline GIAS dictionary copies are generated together; preserve
|
||||||
|
their parity. Tests enforce it.
|
||||||
Payload CMS runs **inside** the Next.js app — one image, one container, no
|
|
||||||
separate service. It powers `/blog`; `/about` is a plain coded page.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Admin panel:** `/admin`. The only authenticated surface on the site.
|
|
||||||
`noindex` via both `robots.txt` and `X-Robots-Tag`.
|
|
||||||
- **CMS API:** `/cms-api`, **not** `/api`. `/api/*` is a catch-all proxy to
|
|
||||||
FastAPI (`app/(frontend)/api/[...path]`) which would silently swallow every
|
|
||||||
admin call and forward it to the backend. Mount points are defined once in
|
|
||||||
`lib/payloadRoutes.ts`.
|
|
||||||
- **Database:** the existing Postgres, in its own `payload` schema, so no
|
|
||||||
pipeline operation on `public` — including
|
|
||||||
`scripts/migrate_csv_to_db.py --drop` — can reach blog content.
|
|
||||||
- **Uploads:** the `payload_media` Docker volume at `/app/media`. Not
|
|
||||||
reproducible from the pipeline; must be backed up.
|
|
||||||
- **New env vars:** `DATABASE_URL` and `PAYLOAD_SECRET` on the frontend service.
|
|
||||||
Staging must use a different `PAYLOAD_SECRET` from production.
|
|
||||||
- Publishing workflow and house style: `nextjs-app/docs/PUBLISHING.md`.
|
|
||||||
- **Admin field components resolve through a generated import map**
|
|
||||||
(`app/(payload)/admin/importMap.js`). Payload hands the client a *path* per
|
|
||||||
field and looks it up there; a missing entry renders no field and reports no
|
|
||||||
error, while `required` still blocks the save. After adding or changing any
|
|
||||||
field, editor or lexical feature, run `npm run generate:importmap` in
|
|
||||||
`nextjs-app/` and commit the result.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Two route groups
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`nextjs-app/app/` has no root `layout.tsx`. It cannot: Payload's admin panel
|
|
||||||
ships its own root layout rendering `<html>`/`<body>`, and Next permits
|
|
||||||
multiple root layouts only when no `app/layout.tsx` exists.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- `app/(frontend)/` — the site. Its `layout.tsx` is the site's root layout.
|
|
||||||
- `app/(payload)/` — the admin panel and `/cms-api`.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Route groups are invisible to routing, so every public URL is unchanged.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
**The metadata file conventions stay at the `app/` root** — `robots.ts`,
|
|
||||||
`opengraph-image.tsx`, `icon.png`, `apple-icon.png`. Inside a route group Next
|
|
||||||
treats them as segment-scoped: it renames `/icon.png` to `/icon-<hash>.png` and
|
|
||||||
drops `/robots.txt` entirely. Route handlers are unaffected.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The build must succeed with `DATABASE_URL` unset, because CI builds it that
|
|
||||||
way. Never call `getCachedPayload()` at module scope, and never add
|
|
||||||
`generateStaticParams` to a DB-backed route.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Frontend (Vanilla JS)
|
|
||||||
- Single-page application with hash-based routing
|
|
||||||
- Chart.js for data visualization
|
|
||||||
- No build step required
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Key files:
|
|
||||||
- `frontend/index.html` - Main HTML structure
|
|
||||||
- `frontend/app.js` - All application logic, API calls, rendering
|
|
||||||
- `frontend/styles.css` - Styling (CSS variables, responsive design)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Database Schema

||||||
|
|
||||||

|
|

└── results → SchoolResult[]
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Configuration
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Environment variables (or `.env` file):
|
|
||||||
- `DATABASE_URL` - PostgreSQL connection string (default: `postgresql://schoolcompare:schoolcompare@localhost:5432/schoolcompare`)
|
|
||||||
- `HOST`, `PORT` - Server binding (default: `0.0.0.0:80`)
|
|
||||||
- `ALLOWED_ORIGINS` - CORS origins
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Running Locally
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Start PostgreSQL:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
docker compose up -d db
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. Run migration to import CSV data:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
python scripts/migrate_csv_to_db.py --drop
|
|
||||||
# Add --geocode to geocode postcodes (slower, adds lat/long)
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. Start the app:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
uvicorn backend.app:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Docker Deployment
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
docker compose up -d
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This starts:
|
|
||||||
- `db` - PostgreSQL 16 with persistent volume
|
|
||||||
- `app` - FastAPI application on port 80
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Data
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Source: UK Government Compare School Performance downloads
|
|
||||||
- Location: `data/` directory with year folders (e.g., `2023-2024/england_ks2final.csv`)
|
|
||||||
- The `scripts/download_data.py` can fetch data from the government website
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Key Features
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Location Search**: Enter postcode to find nearby schools (uses postcodes.io API)
|
|
||||||
- **Multi-school Comparison**: Select multiple schools, view metrics across years
|
|
||||||
- **Rankings**: Top schools by any KS2 metric, filterable by local authority
|
|
||||||
- **Variability Analysis**: Shows standard deviation of scores across years
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## API Endpoints
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- `GET /api/schools` - List/search schools (supports pagination, location search)
|
|
||||||
- `GET /api/schools/{urn}` - School details with all yearly data
|
|
||||||
- `GET /api/compare?urns=123,456` - Compare multiple schools
|
|
||||||

`nextjs-app/lib/api.ts` contains typed fetch wrappers and revalidation defaults.
|

|
The proxy is `nextjs-app/app/(frontend)/api/[...path]/route.ts`. Payload uses
|
||||||
|
`/cms-api` so its routes do not collide with the FastAPI proxy. The proxy denies
|
||||||
|
`/api/flags`; server-side rendering reads flags directly from FastAPI.
|

|
|
||||||
|
## Data ownership
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Layer | Owner and role |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| Source data | GIAS, DfE EES, Ofsted, finance, deprivation and council admission-distance sources |
|
||||||
|
| `raw` | Singer taps and the PostgreSQL target configured in `pipeline/meltano.yml` |
|
||||||
|
| Staging/intermediate/marts | dbt models in `pipeline/transform`; marts are materialized tables |
|
||||||
|
| `marts.dim_school`, `marts.dim_location` | School identity and location, filtered to supported England establishments |
|
||||||
|
| `marts.fact_*` | Performance and supplementary datasets; coverage and years vary |
|
||||||
|
| Typesense `schools` alias | Search documents built by `pipeline/scripts/sync_typesense.py` |
|
||||||
|
| `payload` | CMS collections and migrations in `nextjs-app/`; independent of dbt |
|
||||||
|
| Media volume | Uploaded blog media; requires backup and cannot be regenerated from school datasets |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`backend/models.py` maps existing marts for reading. It does not create the school
|
||||||
|
schema. There is no startup schema-version migration or CSV reimport. Payload's
|
||||||
|
`nextjs-app/migrations/` is active and must not be confused with the removed
|
||||||
|
legacy backend migration code.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Coordinates normally come from GIAS British National Grid coordinates transformed
|
||||||
|
by PostGIS in `dim_location.sql`. `pipeline/scripts/geocode_postcodes.py` is a
|
||||||
|
manual fallback utility, not a task wired into the current school-data DAG.
|
||||||
|
Backend postcode searches also use postcodes.io; that lookup does not populate
|
||||||
|
school coordinates in the database.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Backend boundaries
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `app.py`: routes, middleware, search filtering, sitemap/place publication and response assembly.
|
||||||
|
- `data_loader.py`: SQL loading, process-local DataFrame caches, Typesense calls,
|
||||||
|
postcode lookups, supplementary queries and benchmark calculation.
|
||||||
|
- `database.py`: synchronous SQLAlchemy engine and sessions.
|
||||||
|
- `schemas.py`: metric definitions, column mappings and display metadata; despite
|
||||||
|
its name this is not a collection of Pydantic API response models.
|
||||||
|
- `places.py` and `localities.py`: place registry and curated locality information.
|
||||||
|
- `flags.py`: Unleash-backed feature flags, disabled when no server is configured.
|
||||||
|
- `gias_codes.py` / `ofsted_codes.py`: source-code translation and display rules.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Search starts from a cached latest-row-per-school snapshot. Detail pages read
|
||||||
|
history from the full DataFrame and supplementary data from marts. Comparisons
|
||||||
|
batch supplementary queries across selected URNs. Async routes still contain
|
||||||
|
synchronous dependency calls; a fully asynchronous database layer is not present.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Frontend boundaries
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`app/(frontend)` owns the public root layout and pages. `app/(payload)` owns the
|
||||||
|
CMS root layout. Do not add a shared `app/layout.tsx`: these groups deliberately
|
||||||
|
have separate root layouts. Root metadata files remain in `app/`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Server pages fetch initial data and pass it to client views. Client state uses
|
||||||
|
React hooks, URL search parameters and the comparison context/localStorage.
|
||||||
|
There is no SWR dependency. Leaflet maps are loaded through dynamic wrappers;
|
||||||
|
Chart.js renders performance and comparison charts.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`components/school/` contains detail sections, with section decisions and data
|
||||||
|
preparation in `lib/schoolSections.ts`. `lib/types.ts` contains manually maintained
|
||||||
|
API types. `payload-types.ts` and the Payload import map are generated artifacts.

||||||

||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Airflow DAGs extract and validate source data, then run selected dbt builds.
|
||||||
|
2. Relevant DAGs rebuild Typesense and swap the `schools` alias.
|
||||||
|
3. They call `POST /api/admin/reload` with `X-API-Key` to refresh school DataFrames.
|
||||||
|
4. A separate weekly sitemap DAG calls `POST /api/admin/regenerate-sitemap`,
|
||||||
|
rebuilding places and sitemaps.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
GIAS is scheduled daily, Ofsted monthly, and annual datasets are manually
|
||||||
|
triggered. The DAG definitions are authoritative for selectors and dependencies.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Caches exist in several independent layers: backend DataFrames and registries,
|
||||||
|
backend HTTP Cache-Control/ETags, Next.js fetch/page revalidation, and browser or
|
||||||
|
shared HTTP caches where configured. Place fetches request a one-week revalidation
|
||||||
|
interval. HTTP ETags are computed after route execution, not before database work.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Known limitations: reload clears the old DataFrames before verifying replacement
|
||||||
|
data; places/sitemaps refresh separately; Next.js caches are not explicitly purged
|
||||||
|
by the pipeline; Typesense import results are not validated before alias publication.
|
||||||
|
Do not describe this sequence as an atomic dataset release. These are follow-up
|
||||||
|
reliability tasks, not changes implemented by the documentation cleanup.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Deployment references
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
See [DEPLOY.md](DEPLOY.md). PR checks include frontend typechecking/tests, backend
|
||||||
|
unit tests, image builds and AI review. Staging journeys run after merging.
|
||||||
|
Production promotion retags a selected commit's images. Current health polling
|
||||||
|
checks HTTP success, not the deployed commit identity; overlapping staging runs
|
||||||
|
remain a release-verification concern.

# Development and validation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Prerequisites and environment boundaries
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Use a feature branch. The deployed stack is the integration environment; do not
|
||||||
|
assume a local server can run from a fresh checkout. This cleanup did not start
|
||||||
|
local servers or provision databases. Unit tests use fixtures and mocks.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The current versions are not yet aligned:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Component | Container | PR checks |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| Backend | Python 3.11 | Python 3.12 |
|
||||||
|
| Frontend | Node 24 | Node 22 |
|
||||||
|
| Pipeline | Python 3.13 | Pipeline image build |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Use the component's container version when reproducing deployment behaviour.
|
||||||
|
The backend dependency pins predate Python 3.14; do not assume the system Python
|
||||||
|
can install or run them. Version alignment is a separate maintenance task.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Frontend checks
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
cd nextjs-app
|
||||||
|
npm ci
|
||||||
|
npm run typecheck
|
||||||
|
npm test -- --runInBand
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
`npm run build` is the production build check. There is no `lint` script.
|
||||||
|
Tests live in `__tests__/` and use Jest/React Testing Library. These checks do not
|
||||||
|
prove that live PostgreSQL queries, Typesense or a deployed proxy work.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The frontend `.env.example` documents runtime variables. Browser traffic normally
|
||||||
|
uses `/api`; `FASTAPI_URL` is an absolute server-side URL ending in `/api`.
|
||||||
|
Payload additionally needs `DATABASE_URL` and `PAYLOAD_SECRET` when used at runtime.
|
||||||
|
Never commit credentials or real `.env` files.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Backend checks
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
From the repository root, using an available Python 3.11 or 3.12 interpreter:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
python3.11 -m venv /tmp/schoolcompare-backend-venv
|
||||||
|
/tmp/schoolcompare-backend-venv/bin/python -m pip install -r requirements.txt pytest 'httpx<0.28'
|
||||||
|
/tmp/schoolcompare-backend-venv/bin/python -m pytest backend/tests -q
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Substitute `python3.12` if matching PR CI. The test dependencies above match the
|
||||||
|
current workflow; they are not yet captured in a dedicated development lockfile.
|
||||||
|
Backend configuration is defined in `backend/config.py`; `.env.example` documents
|
||||||
|
commonly used values. `ALLOWED_ORIGINS` uses a JSON array, not a comma-separated string.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Data and pipeline work
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The app needs populated `marts.*` tables. A new Postgres instance alone is not a
|
||||||
|
working school-data environment. Use the existing managed pipeline or an approved
|
||||||
|
snapshot; the removed CSV importer cannot build the current schema.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The pipeline container includes Meltano, dbt/Postgres, Airflow and the custom taps.
|
||||||
|
Airflow commands/selectors live in `pipeline/dags/`. Schema tests live in
|
||||||
|
`pipeline/transform/tests/` and model YAML files. Run the relevant `dbt build`
|
||||||
|
selector in an isolated data environment for model changes; it writes tables and
|
||||||
|
is not a read-only smoke test. Prefer `python -m dbt.cli.main` as the DAGs do.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
GIAS dictionaries are generated together by
|
||||||
|
`pipeline/scripts/generate_gias_codes.py`. The backend and pipeline copies are
|
||||||
|
intentional; `backend/tests/test_gias_codes.py` checks that they stay identical.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For Payload collection/editor changes, run `npm run generate:importmap` in
|
||||||
|
`nextjs-app/` and include the generated map. Preserve CMS migrations and the
|
||||||
|
separate `payload` schema. See [publishing](../nextjs-app/docs/PUBLISHING.md).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## End-to-end checks
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Against an existing, authorised test environment:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
cd e2e
|
||||||
|
npm ci
|
||||||
|
npx playwright install chromium
|
||||||
|
BASE_URL=https://your-test-environment.example npx playwright test
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The suite does not start a web server. CI installs Chromium with system dependencies
|
||||||
|
and runs against staging. Use the configured staging target: `docs/DEPLOY.md`
|
||||||
|
records the public staging proxy limitation. User-visible behaviour changes should
|
||||||
|
update the corresponding journeys.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Before requesting review
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Run checks relevant to the change, inspect `git diff --check`, and report checks
|
||||||
|
that could not run. Do not publish or promote as part of local validation.
|
||||||
|
[DEPLOY.md](DEPLOY.md) documents the PR and human promotion gates.

# Deployment Guide
|
# Frontend deployment
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This guide covers deployment options for the SchoolCompare Next.js application.
|
Next.js and Payload run in the same frontend container. The maintained deployment
|
||||||
|
procedure is [docs/DEPLOY.md](../docs/DEPLOY.md), with the production and staging
|
||||||
|
Portainer compose files at the repository root.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Deployment Options
|
The frontend Dockerfile builds a standalone Next.js image. Runtime configuration
|
||||||
|
supplies `FASTAPI_URL`, `DATABASE_URL` and `PAYLOAD_SECRET`; uploaded CMS media is
|
||||||
|
persisted in a volume. Promote the built image through the repository's Gitea
|
||||||
|
workflow after human staging approval.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Option 1: Vercel (Recommended for Next.js)
|
Earlier Vercel and standalone deployment recipes have been retired from this file
|
||||||
|
because they do not describe the current CMS, persistence and promotion setup.
|
||||||
Vercel is the easiest and most optimized platform for Next.js applications.
|
See [development](../docs/DEVELOPMENT.md) for checks and
|
||||||
|
[publishing](docs/PUBLISHING.md) for CMS operations.
|
||||||
#### Steps:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. **Install Vercel CLI**:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
npm install -g vercel
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. **Login to Vercel**:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
vercel login
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. **Deploy**:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
vercel --prod
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
4. **Configure Environment Variables** in Vercel dashboard:
|
|
||||||
- `NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL`: Your FastAPI endpoint (e.g., `https://api.schoolcompare.co.uk/api`)
|
|
||||||
- `FASTAPI_URL`: Same as above for server-side requests
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Benefits:
|
|
||||||
- Automatic HTTPS
|
|
||||||
- Global CDN
|
|
||||||
- Zero-config deployment
|
|
||||||
- Automatic preview deployments
|
|
||||||
- Built-in analytics
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
---
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Option 2: Docker (Self-hosted)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Deploy using Docker containers for full control.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Prerequisites:
|
|
||||||
- Docker 20+
|
|
||||||
- Docker Compose 2+
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Steps:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. **Build Docker Image**:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
docker build -t schoolcompare-nextjs:latest .
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. **Run with Docker Compose**:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Create .env file with production variables
|
|
||||||
echo "NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL=https://api.schoolcompare.co.uk/api" > .env
|
|
||||||
echo "FASTAPI_URL=http://backend:8000/api" >> .env
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Start services
|
|
||||||
docker-compose up -d
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. **Verify Deployment**:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
curl http://localhost:3000
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Environment Variables:
|
|
||||||
- `NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL`: Public API endpoint (client-side)
|
|
||||||
- `FASTAPI_URL`: Internal API endpoint (server-side)
|
|
||||||
- `NODE_ENV`: `production`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Option 3: PM2 (Node.js Process Manager)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Deploy directly on a Node.js server using PM2.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Prerequisites:
|
|
||||||
- Node.js 24+
|
|
||||||
- PM2 (`npm install -g pm2`)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Steps:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. **Build Application**:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
npm run build
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. **Create PM2 Ecosystem File** (`ecosystem.config.js`):
|
|
||||||
```javascript
|
|
||||||
module.exports = {
|
|
||||||
apps: [{
|
|
||||||
name: 'schoolcompare-nextjs',
|
|
||||||
script: 'npm',
|
|
||||||
args: 'start',
|
|
||||||
cwd: '/path/to/nextjs-app',
|
|
||||||
instances: 'max',
|
|
||||||
exec_mode: 'cluster',
|
|
||||||
env: {
|
|
||||||
NODE_ENV: 'production',
|
|
||||||
PORT: 3000,
|
|
||||||
NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL: 'https://api.schoolcompare.co.uk/api',
|
|
||||||
FASTAPI_URL: 'http://localhost:8000/api',
|
|
||||||
},
|
|
||||||
}],
|
|
||||||
};
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. **Start with PM2**:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
pm2 start ecosystem.config.js
|
|
||||||
pm2 save
|
|
||||||
pm2 startup
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
---
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Option 4: Nginx Reverse Proxy
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Use Nginx as a reverse proxy in front of Next.js.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Nginx Configuration:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```nginx
|
|
||||||
server {
|
|
||||||
listen 80;
|
|
||||||
server_name schoolcompare.co.uk;
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Redirect to HTTPS
|
|
||||||
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
|
|
||||||
}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
server {
|
|
||||||
listen 443 ssl http2;
|
|
||||||
server_name schoolcompare.co.uk;
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# SSL Configuration
|
|
||||||
ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/certs/schoolcompare.crt;
|
|
||||||
ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/private/schoolcompare.key;
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Security Headers
|
|
||||||
# frame-ancestors replaces X-Frame-Options so the analytics subdomain
|
|
||||||
# (Umami heatmap/recorder) can embed the site in an iframe.
|
|
||||||
add_header Content-Security-Policy "frame-ancestors 'self' https://analytics.schoolcompare.co.uk" always;
|
|
||||||
add_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff" always;
|
|
||||||
add_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block" always;

## Post-Deployment Verification
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. **Health Check**:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
curl https://schoolcompare.co.uk
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2. **Test Routes**:
|
|
||||||
- Home: `https://schoolcompare.co.uk/`
|
|
||||||
- School Page: `https://schoolcompare.co.uk/school/100001`
|
|
||||||
- Compare: `https://schoolcompare.co.uk/compare`
|
|
||||||
- Rankings: `https://schoolcompare.co.uk/rankings`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3. **Check SEO**:
|
|
||||||
- Sitemap: `https://schoolcompare.co.uk/sitemap.xml`
|
|
||||||
- Robots: `https://schoolcompare.co.uk/robots.txt`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
4. **Performance Audit**:
|
|
||||||
- Run Lighthouse in Chrome DevTools
|

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Monitoring
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Recommended Tools:
|
|
||||||
- **Vercel Analytics** (if using Vercel)
|
|
||||||
- **Sentry** for error tracking
|
|
||||||
- **Google Analytics** for user analytics
|
|
||||||
- **Uptime Robot** for uptime monitoring
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Health Check Endpoint:
|
|
||||||
The application automatically serves health data at the root route.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
---
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Rollback Procedure
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Vercel:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
vercel rollback
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Docker:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
docker-compose down
|
|
||||||
docker-compose up -d --force-recreate
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### PM2:
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
pm2 stop schoolcompare-nextjs
|
|
||||||
# Restore previous build
|
|
||||||
pm2 start schoolcompare-nextjs
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
---
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Troubleshooting
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Issue: API requests failing
|
|
||||||
- **Solution**: Check `NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL` and `FASTAPI_URL` environment variables
|
|
||||||
- **Verify**: FastAPI backend is accessible from Next.js container/server
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Issue: Build fails
|
|
||||||
- **Solution**: Check Node.js version (requires 24+)
|
|
||||||
- **Clear cache**: `rm -rf .next node_modules && npm install && npm run build`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Issue: Slow page loads
|
|
||||||
- **Solution**: Enable caching in API calls
|
|
||||||
- **Check**: Network latency to FastAPI backend
|
|
||||||
- **Verify**: CDN is serving static assets
|

|
|

# SchoolCompare Next.js Application
|
# SchoolCompare frontend and CMS
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Modern Next.js application for comparing primary school KS2 performance across England.
|
Next.js App Router with React, TypeScript, CSS Modules, Chart.js, Leaflet and
|
||||||
|
Payload CMS. It serves school search, comparisons, rankings, school/place detail
|
||||||
|
pages and editorial content across England.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Features
|
Start with the [repository overview](../README.md),
|
||||||
|
[architecture](../docs/ARCHITECTURE.md) and [development checks](../docs/DEVELOPMENT.md).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Server-Side Rendering (SSR)**: Fast initial page loads with pre-rendered content
|
## Source map
|
||||||
- **Individual School Pages**: Dedicated pages for each school with full SEO optimization
|
|
||||||
- **Side-by-Side Comparison**: Compare up to 5 schools simultaneously
|
|
||||||
- **School Rankings**: Top-performing schools by various metrics
|
|
||||||
- **Interactive Maps**: Leaflet integration for geographic visualization
|
|
||||||
- **Performance Charts**: Chart.js visualizations for historical data
|
|
||||||
- **Responsive Design**: Mobile-first approach with full responsive support
|
|
||||||
- **SEO Optimized**: Dynamic sitemaps, meta tags, and structured data
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Tech Stack
|
| Path | Purpose |
|
||||||
|
|---|---|
|
||||||
|
| `app/(frontend)/` | Public root layout, server pages and FastAPI proxy |
|
||||||
|
| `app/(payload)/` | Payload root layout, `/admin` and `/cms-api` |
|
||||||
|
| `app/robots.ts`, `app/opengraph-image.tsx`, root icons | Site-wide metadata endpoints |
|
||||||
|
| `components/` | Client views and reusable display components |
|
||||||
|
| `components/school/` | School detail sections |
|
||||||
|
| `lib/api.ts`, `lib/types.ts` | Fetch wrappers and manual school API types |
|
||||||
|
| `lib/schoolSections.ts`, `lib/compareLogic.ts` | Presentation decisions and data preparation |
|
||||||
|
| `context/`, `hooks/` | Comparison state, suggestion state and responsive behaviour |
|
||||||
|
| `collections/`, `blocks/`, `migrations/` | CMS schema and production migrations |
|
||||||
|
| `__tests__/` | Jest and React Testing Library tests |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- **Framework**: Next.js 16 (App Router)
|
Do not introduce a shared `app/layout.tsx`: public pages and Payload have separate
|
||||||
- **Language**: TypeScript 5
|
root layouts. Keep root metadata files outside the route groups.
|
||||||
- **Styling**: CSS Modules + CSS Variables
|
|
||||||
- **State Management**: React Context API + URL state
|
|
||||||
- **Data Fetching**: SWR (client-side) + Next.js fetch (server-side)
|
|
||||||
- **Charts**: Chart.js + react-chartjs-2
|
|
||||||
- **Maps**: Leaflet + react-leaflet
|
|
||||||
- **Testing**: Jest + React Testing Library
|
|
||||||
- **Validation**: Zod
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Getting Started
|
## Data and state
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Prerequisites
|
Server pages fetch initial data directly from `FASTAPI_URL`. Browser fetches use
|
||||||
|
`/api` by default, forwarded by `app/(frontend)/api/[...path]/route.ts`.
|
||||||
|
`FASTAPI_URL` must include `/api`. See `.env.example` for CMS and API settings.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Node.js 24+ (using nvm recommended)
|
State uses React hooks/context, URL search parameters and localStorage for the
|
||||||
- FastAPI backend running on port 8000
|
comparison basket. SWR is not installed. Maps use dynamic Leaflet wrappers.
|
||||||
|
Revalidation intervals are configured in fetch wrappers and pages; they vary by
|
||||||
|
resource. Backend reloads do not automatically invalidate every Next.js cache.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Installation
|
## Commands
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
```sh
|
||||||
# Install dependencies
|
npm ci
|
||||||
npm install
|
npm run typecheck
|
||||||
|
npm test -- --runInBand
|
||||||
# Copy environment variables
|
|
||||||
cp .env.example .env.local
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Update .env.local with your configuration
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Development
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Start development server
|
|
||||||
npm run dev
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Open http://localhost:3000
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Building
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Build for production
|
|
||||||
npm run build
|
npm run build
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Start production server
|
|
||||||
npm start
|
|
||||||
```
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Testing
|
`test:watch` and `test:coverage` are also available. There is no `lint` script.
|
||||||
|
A running application needs the backend/data environment described in the
|
||||||
|
[development guide](../docs/DEVELOPMENT.md).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
After CMS field or editor changes, run `npm run generate:importmap`. Keep
|
||||||
# Run tests
|
`payload-types.ts` generated from the CMS schema rather than editing it by hand.
|
||||||
npm test
|
The build must work without a database connection; avoid module-scope CMS queries
|
||||||
|
and DB-backed `generateStaticParams` functions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Run tests in watch mode
|
See [publishing](docs/PUBLISHING.md) for CMS operations and
|
||||||
npm run test:watch
|
[deployment](../docs/DEPLOY.md) for staging and production promotion.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Run tests with coverage
|
|
||||||
npm run test:coverage
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Linting
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
# Run ESLint
|
|
||||||
npm run lint
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
