You need to set up the backend service for Glific. Follow the instructions here:
🔗 https://github.com/glific/glific

💡 Note: SSL is required in development for both frontend and backend. Follow the SSL setup instructions in the backend README.

Also, add the following entry to your /etc/hosts file:

127.0.0.1 glific.test

1. Copy .env.example to .env in the project root:

   cp .env.example .env

2. Do not modify .env unless absolutely required.

3. Install dependencies:

   yarn setup

Ensure your Glific backend server is running and accessible.

yarn dev

Visit https://glific.test:3000 to open the app.

After logging in:

This step is required only if you're using Gupshup integration and have ISV credentials stored in the database.

1. Go to Settings → Integration.
2. Enter your Gupshup credentials and App Name.
3. Save the settings to auto-fetch your Gupshup App ID.

💡 Note: Auto-fetching the App ID will only work if valid ISV credentials are already present in the backend database.

yarn setup               # Install dependencies
yarn dev                 # Run app in development mode
yarn test                # Run tests in watch mode
yarn test:coverage       # Run tests with coverage
yarn build               # Create optimized production build
yarn extract-translations # Extract English strings for Lokalise

To build a production Docker image:

docker build \
--build-arg VITE_GLIFIC_API_PORT=API-PORT \
--no-cache -t glific-frontend .

Replace API-PORT with your backend API port number.

1. Extract base strings:

   yarn extract-translations

2. Once merged into main, strings will appear in Lokalise.

3. Use Download → Build only in Lokalise to push translations.

4. This will create a PR automatically in the frontend repo.

5. It's recommended to Preview before building.
