netlify-cms-react-example

Process to create this example

Create the react app using create-react-app

$ git clone https://github.com/ADARTA/netlify-cms-react-example.git
$ cd netlify-cms-react-example

$ yarn start

Create the the development proxy for the backend api

$ yarn add netlify-cms-proxy-server --dev

src/setupProxy.js is recognized by the webpack setup in react-scripts, so we use the middleware script from netlify-cms-proxy-server/dist/middlewares/registerLocalFs to create the /api/v1 endpoint.

Note: this feature is available with [email protected] and higher.

src/setupProxy.js

const {
  registerLocalFs,
} = require("netlify-cms-proxy-server/dist/middlewares");

module.exports = function (app) {
  registerLocalFs(app);
};

Test the API endpoint by starting the development server using npm run start or yarn start. The proxy api will give you a message telling you the root and site path in the terminal. Browsing to http://localhost:3000/api/v1 will confirm the API is up and running by returning a json error object letting you know it is the root of the api.

Creating your custom CMS application

This starter can be the beginning custom CMS or we can use this as a test for an existing NetlifyCMS configuration. Just clone the repository or download.
