05/29/2023, 8:20 AMHello, I (akshat-g-07 on github) have been wanting to contribute to this community (supertokens-auth-react) and I was trying to setup the project in my local. I went through the steps mentioned in the Contributing.md. And I think something didn't go as expected that's why I am not able to setup.
If someone can connect with me (so that I can share my screen) for few minutes to help me there, it would be really helpful.
We can discuss it here as well if connecting is not convenient.
Thanks in advance 🙂

Can you explain what you tried and what issue are you facing?

05/29/2023, 8:30 AMHello @nkshah2
Surely.
1.) I forked, then cloned both the repos (supertokens-auth-react and supertokens-root) in same parent directory (image attached)
2.) ran this command (npm run set-up-hooks) in supertokens-auth-react directory
3.) didn't modify anything yet (as i want to see something on browser before)
4.) ran this command (npm run build-pretty) in supertokens-auth-react directory
5.) ran this command (npm run lint) in supertokens-auth-react directory
6.) step 5 gave 129 warnings and 0 errors
7.) nothing started yet so tried npm start which gives me output : image attached.

05/29/2023, 8:34 AMRight so the auth react SDK cannot be "started" as such because its not a standalone website or anything like that
nkshah2
05/29/2023, 8:34 AMOnce you have it cloned you can modify the code and run
npm run build-prettynkshah2
05/29/2023, 8:35 AMTo test your changes locally you can use
npm linknkshah2
05/29/2023, 8:35 AMTo run the tests you can follow the contributing guide for auth react which has links on how to setup supertokens-root and supertokens-core and actually be able to run the tests

05/29/2023, 8:37 AMyou are talking about this part right:
https://github.com/supertokens/supertokens-auth-react/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#testing
protostaarranuj
05/29/2023, 8:40 AMso here in this section step 5 Set OAuth secrets
it says :
To get them, please contact the SuperTokens team.
Can you please let me know about this part as well .

nkshah2
05/29/2023, 8:41 AMRight if you visit our docs about social login, in the quick setup -> backend section there is a step to initialise the social providers. Youll find the demo secrets there
nkshah2
05/29/2023, 8:41 AMYou can use those
nkshah2
05/29/2023, 8:42 AM(The docs links could change overtime so they arent linked to directly in the CONTRIBUTING file)
p
protostaarranuj
05/29/2023, 8:48 AMumm can you please verify my understanding here:
in docs you are talking about this path right:
v2/session/quick-setup/backend.mdx

05/29/2023, 9:53 AMAlso for this one,
i ran (npm link) in supertokens-auth-react directory
created a demo react app
in that demo app ran (npm link supertokens-auth-react)
and then npm start in that demo app.
can you let me know if these are the right and enough steps or am i falling short somewhere?
i kinda feel in a lil bit of dark and thanks for you time @nkshah2 to steer me to the bright side 🙂

nkshah2
05/29/2023, 10:28 AMYoull also need to run
npm link supertokens-auth-reactnkshah2
05/29/2023, 10:28 AMBut yeah all in all it seems right
p
protostaarranuj
05/29/2023, 10:29 AMI ran that too npm link supertokens-auth-react in the demo app
n
nkshah2
05/29/2023, 10:29 AMYep it should all be hooked up then
nkshah2
05/29/2023, 10:29 AMYou can try by adding a simple log in the supertokens init function -> building by running build pretty -> re-running the demo app(not hot reload because node modules wont refresh, youll have to stop and start)
nkshah2
05/29/2023, 10:30 AMVerify your setup that way

05/29/2023, 10:42 AMHey, if you dont mind can we have a short and quick connect pls
I will share my screen and might get few things cleared.

nkshah2
05/29/2023, 10:43 AMWe're all a little caught up at the moment, I can get on a quick call Wednesday if you like
nkshah2
05/29/2023, 10:43 AMUntil then sadly itll have to be chat

protostaarranuj
05/29/2023, 10:48 AMohkay np
so you mentioned supertokens init function right
I searched for the same and found it in
examples\with-emailpassword-vercel\src\App.js
so i logged like: (image attached)
ran npm run build-pretty
closed the prvs running demo app (ctrl+c)
restarted it (npm start)
but no luck 😦
protostaarranuj
05/29/2023, 10:54 AMi mean nothing came in my logs
n
nkshah2
05/29/2023, 11:05 AMThe source code of the SDK is in src/ts
nkshah2
05/29/2023, 11:05 AMI would follow along from there
p
protostaarranuj
05/30/2023, 9:18 AMAm I doing something wrong here?
protostaarranuj
05/30/2023, 9:18 AMI dont see src folder
n
nkshah2
