print-web-sample

This sample web application demonstrates an end-to-end 3D printing workflow using the Spark APIs. It takes the user through the necessary steps required to import, heal, position, support, slice, export and print a 3D model.

Setup

It requires app credentials which you may obtain through the Spark Developer Portal.

You'll need Node.js and npm (node package manager) installed. This build has been tested with Node v0.12.7.

Next, you'll need bower (another package manager, for the front-end) and gulp (a task/build runner) installed globally. Depending on how your system is configured, the following commands might need to be run using sudo.

npm install -g bower
npm install -g gulp

Server

This sample requires authentication in order to perform API calls to Spark.

This Node.js server provides authentication. It is copied from the spark-js-sdk authentication_server sample.

This server implements the following Spark OAuth2.0 endpoints:

• Access token callback endpoint - /access_token
• Guest token callback endpoint - /guest_token
• Refresh token callback endpoint - /refresh_token

####To run the server

• Copy server/config.example.js to server/config.js and enter your app key and app secret.
• Run:

$ cd server
$ npm install
$ node server.js

You now have a server running on your machine with the access, guest and refresh token endpoints.

Client

First copy the file src/scripts/config.example.js to src/scripts/config.js and enter your app key.

If you modified the server that comes with this repository, you have the option to change the AUTH_SERVER_URL_BASE to something different than localhost:3000.

Now, install the dependencies:

cd client
npm install

To build it execute gulp on the command-line (aliases are gulp build and gulp build:debug). To create a minified build use gulp dist or gulp build:release.

To debug the application, execute gulp serve on the command-line. This will open http://localhost.autodesk.com:8000 in your default browser. When you change source files, the application will be automatically rebuilt and reloaded in the browser.

To run a debug or release build after you've built it, you can do one of the following:

cd client/build
python -m SimpleHTTPServer

or

npm install -g http-server
cd client/build
http-server -p 8000 -d False

and go to http://localhost.autodesk.com:8000 in your browser.

The client uses ReactJS and RefluxJS. It uses Browserify to bundle dependencies. It uses Less and Bootstrap (including React-Bootstrap) for styling.
