I am trying to use spring tutorial:
https://spring.io/guides/tutorials/react-and-spring-data-rest/
to run my spring + react application.
In the tutorial he does everything on one page but my application is using Router component to switch between pages so it doesn't work with spring controller serving one address.
What can I do to make it work? I tried googling for it and read many stack overflow questions but couldn't find answer to my problem.
I found a way.
I had to paste address of server I want to deploy to as a proxy setting for react project, execute npm run build in react project root directory, copy files from build directory into resources/static directory in spring boot project and then I deployed project to heroku as described in this guide: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/getting-started-with-java.

I am trying to host a pre-existing react website on 101domains.com using wordpress and reactpress, but I am currently stuck in Manual Mode for reactpress. I have uploaded my build folder to wordpress, but I cannot start the server to host the react app. Here is the error:
Currently you are in Manual Mode, (this means, you can create React apps only in your command line) because:
Your WordPress installation needs access to "npm 6" or higher to create React apps from the admin interface. However you can go to the app directory and use create-react-app from there.
I am trying to figure out how to give WordPress access to npm, but I am new to WP, so I am quite lost. Any advice would be nice!
To use ReactPress with an existing create-react-app. You need to build it with ReactPress on a local WordPress system. I recommend localWP.
Install ReactPress there, copy your whole create-react-app into the apps directory, add a page slug from the WP admin and update the dev environment.
Then build your React app from the command line. Now you can push that build to your live website. There you must choose the identical page slug for your React app. Then it should show under your chosen page slug.
I am currently trying to deploy the default react web app to Azure and I am encountering an issue where though I deploy the contents of my build folder to the azure hosted /site/wwwroot folder I end up on the following page when going to my hosted address: https://[project_name].azurewebsites.net/
Landing Page :
I intend to deploy the default create-react-app react application so that I may have the process down for when I deploy my real site.
The process I have followed is pretty much exactly what is mentioned in this article https://medium.com/#to_pe/deploying-create-react-app-on-microsoft-azure-c0f6686a4321
Create the default React App with create-react-app
Run "npm run build" to get the build folder
Go into the Azure React Portal and create a new Web App ***
FTP / Git deploy the contents of the local build folder into the Azure website's /site/wwwroot/ folder
For overkill I added the below web.config file to handle future routes, but have also tried without this step
In the end my Azure site's contents look like this
Folder contents :
At this point when I try to access the Azure site I get the "Hey, Node developers!" page which implies my code is not deployed. Any thoughts as to why this might be the case?
*** I have a hunch that during the configuring of the Azure Web Api something is not set up correctly perhaps because I select Node 10.14 as my Runtime stack simply because that is the version of Node that I have installed and am using with my local React app.
Thank you folks for your time.
Another approach is to configure Azure Linux Web App Service to run a startup command to serve your React app in "Settings > General settings > Startup Command":
pm2 serve /home/site/wwwroot/ --no-daemon
Remember to change the path to your build path (The path to your index.html file).
If you use react-router and wants to make any direct access on custom routes be handled by index.html you need to add --spa option on the same command.
pm2 serve /home/site/wwwroot/ --no-daemon --spa
Using --spa option pm2 will automatically redirect all queries to the index.html and then react router will do its magic.
You can find more information about it in pm2 documentation: https://pm2.keymetrics.io/docs/usage/pm2-doc-single-page/#serving-spa-redirect-all-to-indexhtml
I've coped with the same problem recently: React router direct links not working on Azure Web App Linux
You have created a Linux App Service - your web.config won't work because there is no IIS.
If you don't select node as the runtime stack, your app will work for the most part because it serves the files like a static web host. However I would suggest to keep the runtime stack as node and add the following file to your deployment in the wwwroot folder:
ecosystem.config.js
module.exports = {
apps: [
{
script: "npx serve -s"
}
]
};

There's an extremely simple way to overcome this problem, and although it is not perfect, it works both on AWS, Microsoft Azure, and probably any other hosting:
Just point the error document to: index.html
I found it out here:

Disclaimer: This solution is not perfect and impacts SEO. Google doesn't rank well sites that throw 404s.
So I have a website and I want to deploy some of my projects on my portfolio website like mywebsite.com/first-project.html
I already ran npm run build so I have a build version with the static files and I put it on my website but the react index.html isn't return anything the div id of root is empty.
I have seen tutorial of deploying them through surge and github pages. I don't want to do that, I want it on my own website. How can I achieve this?
Edit:- I forgot to mention the projects I created are through the npm create-react-app method and I have run the static build through serve -s build on my local computer. I just want to do the same on my website.
Edit2:- In the future if I am creating a react based website with the intention of hosting on my own domain, what kind of groundwork should I lay to make it easier? Any node packages or routing or set up? Also would you recommend create-react-app for this purpose if not what method would you recommend?
First of all, my question is not about how to install angular. I'm just getting started with this framework and already got a question right at the beginning.
Usually I create new web projects (HTML, PHP...) in the default web folder of the apache webserver (/var/www/). I did this with angular too under /var/www/firstAngularProject, but it seems the application itself is only accessible on its default port on the webserver root. In my case this is localhost:4200
When I try to open the path in my browser localhost/firstAngularProject I see the index structure and I think this could become a security issue.
So my question is where should I install the angular project or what is the usual way to install it?
When you run Angular using the cli command ng start (which I assume, based on you describing using localhost:4200) you're running the application using webpack-dev-server. This is undesirable since it's only meant for use during development, not for production.
In production Angular works just like any other frontend framework. You build the application with ng build --prod which produces a number of build artifact (in the /dist folder). These artifact are simply static files you make available through some webserver, in your case Apache, by copying the content of the /dist folder to /var/www (or whichever is your default web folder) and that's about it.
I currently have a Ratpack Groovy application hosted on heroku, I've managed to get it working correctly and deploying to the URL Heroku created for me. I decided to make a ReactJS application, which grabs the data from my database from an API I've built in Ratpack, my React application acts as a basic CMS where I can post data back to Ratpack and update the database.
My front end templates get rendered from within my Ratpack handlers, this all works fine locally. I followed
https://github.com/gschrader/ratpack-react-boilerplate
Here is my basic project structure
So I can run ./gradlew run which builds the react app and starts up my Ratpack app in the root of my project and then yarn start in my React directory which starts up my react application on localhost:3000.
My question is how do I deploy this on Heroku, at the moment it's in one big directory, so could I deploy it as one project? I'd like the cms to be on a sub domain such as admin.application.com. I am pretty confused as to how this would work, if anyone has any documentation that would be very helpful.
