How to Use AdaptJS for Deploying Full-Stack Applications

Sep 10, 2023 | Programming

Are you looking to simplify the deployment of your full-stack applications? Look no further! AdaptJS is a powerful system designed to help you deploy your apps reliably and repeatably. It uses specifications that look like React apps, but instead of typical DOM elements, it leverages infrastructure components like AWS EC2 instances, Kubernetes Pods, and databases. In this guide, we will walk you through the process of getting started with AdaptJS and deploying your applications with ease.

Getting Started with AdaptJS

Setting up your project with AdaptJS is a breeze. Follow these simple steps:

  • First, install Adapt globally by running the following command:
    npm install -g @adptcli
  • Create a new app using a starter template:
    adapt new hello-react-node-postgres .myapp
  • Navigate into your app directory:
    cd myapp

Deploying Your Application

With your app set up, it’s time to deploy!

  • To deploy locally using Docker, use the command:
    adapt run laptop
  • Alternatively, deploy everything to Kubernetes with:
    adapt run k8s-test

This entire process allows you to deploy an app with a React front-end, Node.js back-end, and a Postgres database seamlessly!

Understanding the Code Structure

The AdaptJS code structure mirrors that of a React application. Think of it like arranging building blocks to create a complete structure:

  • You start by importing necessary components like building blocks, such as:
  • import Adapt from @adptcore;
    import NodeService, ReactApp from @adptcloudnodejs;
    import Postgres from @adptcloudpostgres;
  • Next, you group these components together to form your application:
  • function MyApp() {
        const pg = Adapt.handle();
        return (
            
                
                
                
            
        );
    }
  • Ultimately, all these components transform down to primitive infrastructure elements that get deployed on your desired platform.

Troubleshooting Tips

Even the best-laid plans can hit a snag. Here are some troubleshooting ideas to help you sail smoothly through any deployment challenges:

  • If you encounter issues while deploying, ensure that your environment is set up correctly and that all dependencies are installed.
  • Check the console for any logging errors, as they often provide guidance on what went wrong.
  • Don’t hesitate to reach out! Join our community and ask for help on the Gitter channel.
  • Finally, if you’ve encountered a bug, consider filing an issue for further assistance.
