Sitecore.HabitatHome.Omni

This repository is used to share Sitecore JSS PWA demo assets (and future “Sitecore Omni” related demo assets) Status (Public or Private).

Version support

App

The sources for the app are located under /fitness/app.

  • Sitecore 9.0.x and 9.1.

Server

The server-side part is located under /fitness/server.

  • Sitecore 9.0.1 or 9.0.2 only for the time being.

Server-side support for Sitecore 9.1 is being tested at the moment.

Quick Start

You can get the app running (front-end only) without Sitecore install and run disconnected, what is also known as "Code-First". The app functionality will naturally be limited (no tracking, personalization, etc.), but it is enough to understand how the app is put together.

See the directions here.

Complete setup

These steps are intended for the complete setup with the app and Sitecore server-side working in full Sitecore XP configuration. The content for the app are to be deserialized via Unicorn using the PowerShell script below. For the simplified "front-end only" scenario, please see "Quick Start" above.

Pre-requisites

  1. Sitecore 9.0.1 or higher is installed.

    Habitat Fitness doesn't support 9.0.0 (Initial Release).

    At this time, the server-side part does not support newly released Sitecore 9.1 yet, it is work in progress. That being said, you can deploy the "front-end" only part to Sitecore 9.1 using Step 2 "Deploy the app" below.

  2. Your current site's "main" hostname is habitathome.dev.local

  3. You also have a binding (w/ SSL) (and hosts entry) to habitatfitness.dev.local

  4. Sitecore.JSS v11 Server package is installed on your target Sitecore instance. See the official docs for directions.

    Habitat Fitness may work with JSS Tech Preview 4 (not officially supported) and wasn't even tried with earlier Tech Previews.

Deployment

1. Deploy server-side components

  1. cd repo/fitness/server

  2. Open cake-config.json and modify it according to your environment.

    You will likely need to update paths to ProjectFolder, XConnectRoot, XConnectAutomationServiceRoot, XConnectIndexerRoot and WebsiteRoot.

    If you are deploying a Sitecore XP configuration and would like to have Marketing Automation to send push notifications, make the following changes.

    If you are deploying a Sitecore XM (CMS-only configuration), you can put values to empty folders in XConnectRoot, XConnectAutomationServiceRoot, and XConnectIndexerRoot settings.

  3. Run the following PowerShell script: build.ps1

    If you have a Sitecore XP configuration and your Marketing Automation service is currently running, it may not allow deployment of the new DLLs during build run. You may need to stop the Sitecore Automation service before running this script.

1.1. Optional - publishing

The app is setup to source content from the master database out of the box to simplify initial setup and operation in "Connected" mode. This is done inside the habitatfitness.config file (database="master"):

<site patch:before="site[@name='website']"
      name="habitatfitness"
      ...    
      database="master" />

If this is changed to web, you will need to perform site-level Smart Publishing operation.

1.2. Rebuild search indexes
  1. Log into Sitecore and open "Control Panel" from Launchpad.
  2. Open Indexing manager.
  3. Toggle the sitecore_master_index index.

    By default, the app is configured in association with a site sourcing content from master database. If this is changed in configuration to web, you will need to also toggle the sitecore_web_index index.

  4. Hit the "Rebuild" button.
1.3. XP-only post-deployment
  1. Open Workbox app from Launchpad.

  2. Toggle "Analytics Workflow", you should be seeing goals and events.

  3. Click "Deploy (all)" at the bottom of the list.

  4. Open "Control Panel" from Launchpad.

  5. Open "Deploy marketing definitions" tool.

  6. Toggle all definitions.

  7. Hit the "Deploy" button.

  8. Open Indexing manager from Control Panel. Toggle the following indexes:

    • sitecore_marketingdefinitions_master
    • sitecore_marketing_asset_index_master

    By default, the app is configured in association with a site sourcing content from master database. If this is changed in configuration to web, you will need to also toggle the corresponding web indexes.

2. Deploy the app to Sitecore instance

  1. cd /fitness/app

  2. npm install from cmd

  3. jss setup from cmd and specify the following:

    • path to your Sitecore instance
    • https://habitatfitness.dev.local (it is important it is not set to the default host name of the instance - habitathome.dev.local).
    • {EBF6D5C1-EB80-4B15-91AB-DD3845797774} for the API key

      This API key is known because it is serialized and will be synced to your Sitecore instance via Unicorn.

    • hit "enter" when asked for the deployment secret
  4. Setup API keys for the 3rd party services if you haven't done it already as a part of Quick start.

  5. Open habitatfitness.config file under /sitecore/config folder in this project directory.

  6. Add the same environment variables for API keys obtained for .env (see Quick start) file under <configuration>/<sitecore>/<javaScriptServices>/<EnvironmentVariables>/<renderEngines>/<renderingEngine>/<instance>/<EnvironmentVariables> section of habitatfitness.config file:

      <var name="REACT_APP_GOOGLE_API_KEY" value="..." />
      <var name="REACT_APP_FIREBASE_MESSAGING_PUSH_KEY" value="..." />
      <var name="REACT_APP_FIREBASE_SENDER_ID" value="..." />
    
  7. Execute jss deploy config from cmd.

    This deploys the config files under /fitness/app/sitecore/config and will require elevated permissions depending on your target location. Make sure to run this command "as administrator" to avoid permission issues. After this command execution, the Sitecore instance will recycle.

  8. Execute jss deploy files from cmd.

    Since the items were taken care by the server deployment script (via Unicorn sync 🦄), you don't have to deploy items (done via jss deploy items CLI command).

3. Run app in connected mode

Run jss start:connected from cmd.

Learn more about Connected mode here.

Advanced setup

1. Configuring Marketing Automation settings for push notifications.

You have to make this change prior to running build.ps1.

  1. Open sc.MarketingAutomation.HabitatFitnessServices.xml file under fitness\server\Sitecore.HabitatHome.Fitness.Automation\App_Data\Config\Sitecore\MarketingAutomation folder and make the following changes:

    • Add Firebase Server API Key:

      <FirebaseMessagingApiKey>INSERT-SERVER-API-KEY-HERE</FirebaseMessagingApiKey>

      How to obtain the Firebase Server key:

      • Create a Firebase account.

      • Login to Firebase console.

      • Create a new project and open it.

      • Click on the "gear" icon and access "project settings":

        (Project Settings)

      • Go to "Cloud Messaging" tab and copy the "Server key" value (create it if it doesn't exist):

        (Server Key)

    • If you also deploying the app to a separate host, adjust the following setting as well:

      <PublicHostName>https://app.habitathomedemo.com</PublicHostName>

      This host name will be used as onclick action for the push notification and as a base url to retrieve app icon showin next to the push notification.

2. Configuring Email service for Kiosk app

After registration is completed on the Kiosk app, the back-end is setup to send a welcome email with the link to mobile app, which identifies the contact on that app. For the time being, the email sending is done via SendGrid and needs to be configured:

  1. Setup account with SendGrid and acquire the API key.

  2. Open Sitecore.HabitatHome.Fitness.Collection.config in App_Config/Include/Sitecore.HabitatHome.Fitness folder and put the API key from SendGrid as value of the following setting:

    <setting name="HabitatHome.Fitness.EmailApiKey" value="PUT-YOUR-SENDGRID-API-KEY-HERE" />
    
  3. Set the value of host name configured for your mobile app. This host name will be used to generate the link in email sent after registration on Kiosk app. When running locally in dev mode, this is likely http://localhost:3000

    <setting name="HabitatHome.Fitness.MobileAppHostName" value="http://localhost:3000" />
