BnbBlazer

Welcome to BNB Blazer! This is a gem wrapper for the Blazer query tool designed specifically for BNB projects. In this directory, you'll find the files you need to edit the behavior/appearance of this gem. Additionally, you can spin up the test app to experiment with the appearance of the tool. Put your Ruby code in the file lib/bnb_blazer.

PURPOSE

BNB Blazer helps our clients understand how their apps are performing, and keep an eye on key metrics about their business activities inside the app. In short, it helps our clients understand the superpowers that we build for them, and gives them reportable ways to tell others about the cool shit we built.

Installation

To use this wrapper in conjunction with Blazer, add this block to your application's Gemfile:

gem "bnb_blazer"

And then execute:

dip bundle install

Follow the Blazer installation instructions to configure the gem and add any custom configuration, except you don't need to add gem "blazer", since that's a dependency of this gem. At minimum, you will need to run:

dip rails generate blazer:install
dip rails db:migrate

And mount the dashboard in your config/routes.rb:

mount Blazer::Engine, at: "blazer"

And specify your BLAZER_DATABASE_URL

Development

This gem comes bundled with a test app to help you test out new display designs with pre-populated blazer queries. To get the environment up and running:

  1. Clone this repo down to your machine
  2. Make sure you have Dip installed and configured
  3. Run dip setup
  4. In your new bnb_blazer directory, run docker-compose up
  5. Uncomment the mount Blazer::Engine, at: "/blazer" line in your config/routes.rb file.
  6. Navigate to http://localhost:3000/blazer in your browser, and away you go!

For the work of actually overriding the gem, Rails will load any view that we have defined in the app/views (not spec/dummy/app/views) folder before looking for them in the blazer gem. So any view that we want to override or restyle you just have to create at the same location as it would be found in the blazer gem. E.g. the homepage view for blazer is found at app/views/blazer/queries/home.html.erb, so if we want to override what the homepage looks like in our gem then we create a new view at app/views/blazer/queries/home.html.erb and copy the existing HTML from the gem and make modifications as necessary.
