Insites operates on the principle that working offline should seldom be necessary. You can create and modify files using a code editor in your local file system while remaining continuously connected to your Instance. This connection allows the Insites engine to analyze and interpret your codebase so that you can deploy changes to your code as needed or have the system make the updates every time changes to a file are made. In essence, you write code locally but execute it remotely.
Your code needs to be organized in a specific way for it to be correctly interpreted by Insites. The simplest method for initializing code with the proper folder structure is to use the
Start by creating an empty folder for your project named
The
Please refer to our Codebase documentation for a comprehensive discussion on the Insites directory structure.
Every static, publicly available asset is stored in the
Please take note of the following pointers regarding assets:
Put every content page in
Put the schema (the structure of your database written in YAML) in
GraphQL queries and mutations are used to save, retrieve, or modify data from the database. In addition, GraphQL is also used to add or create items in a database. All these queries and mutations go to
Now that you are inside the folder create the directory structure by executing the following command:
After executing the command, a success message is displayed, confirming that the directory structure was created. There are now a variety of new files and folders in your project's root directory. The subsequent sections in this document explain what they are for. Also, note that the command created an example HTML page with a welcome message.
The Getting Started with the Insites CLI Tool documentation presents a deep dive into the topics discussed in the following sections:
This step establishes a connection between your local codebase and an Instance. This connection allows you to deploy changes from your local codebase onto the Instance.
Use the following command to simultaneously create an environment and add an Instance to it:
Please take note of the following important pointers:
Once you have connected your codebase to an Instance, you can now deploy changes from your codebase in your local machine to your Instance.
The deployment process is initiated by using the following command in the root of your project folder:
After deployment, you can see your project on your Instance.
Syncing is a feature that enables you to set up your codebase and Instance so that any changes you make to your codebase are immediately pushed and reflected on your Instance. To enable syncing, run the following command from the root directory of your project:
