Displays location and details of all trees that have been tracked.

Live map is at www.treetracker.org

For more details see the [Tree Tracker Web Map Wiki] (https://github.com/Greenstand/treetracker-web-map-client/wiki)

1. Make sure all npm modules are installed for client.

npm i

2. Open .env from the project root. It should contain only the following lines

REACT_APP_API=https://dev-k8s.treetracker.org/webmap/

3. Start the client

npm start

4. Open the web map in the browser with URL: http://localhost:3000

We follow the Airbnb JavaScript style guide. The superficial aspects of this style are enforced by a pre-commit hook in the project that runs Prettier when you commit a change.

If you are using VSCode as your IDE, please follow this guide to set up Prettier and automatically format your code on file save.

In .eslintrc.json, there is a set of rules with status off or warn. Whenever you are developing a new file or an existing file try to correct some warnings, because in the future the rules will be activated.

For more information about rules: https://eslint.org/docs/2.0.0/rules/

_{^{Indention: 2 Spaces for indentation Semicolon: Use semicolons at the end of each line Characters: 80 characters per line Equal Equal (eqeqeq): Good practice to use the type-safe equality operators === and !== instead of their regular counterparts == and != Quotes: Use single quotes unless you are writing JSON}}

const foo = "bar";

_{^{Braces: Opening braces go on the same line as the statement}}

if (true) {
  console.log("here");
}

^{_{Variable declaration: Declare one Variable per statement}}

const dog = ["bark", "woof"];
let cat = ["meow", "sleep"];

^{_{Variable, properties and function names: Use lowerCamelCase for variables, properties and function names}}

const adminUser = db.query("SELECT * From users ...");

^{_{Class names: Use UpperCamelCase for class names}}

class Dog {
  bark() {
    console.log("woof");
  }
}

^{_{Descriptive conditions: Make sure to have a descriptive name that tells the use and meaning of the code}}

const isValidPassword =
  password.length >= 4 && /^(?=.*\d).{4,}$/.test(password);

^{_{Object/Array creation: Use trailing commas and put short declarations on a single line. Only quote keys when your interpreter complains:}}

var a = ["hello", "world"];
var b = {
  good: "code",
  "is generally": "pretty"
};

In package.json, there is a topic called scripts that contains many scripts to be executed. To validate the rules manually, you must run and check that there is no error in your development:

npm run eslint

You will be able to run through this shortcut in VSCode

To fix automatic rules

lint:fix

We use Jest to build tests.

1. To test client

npm test

On Windows, the easiest way to develop and debug Node.js applications is using Visual Studio Code. It comes with Node.js support out of the box.

For performance and UX purposes, since this map needs to deal with an enormous amount of trees, a clustering strategy is used to group those trees, showing information in a way that is more digestible for the end-user.

Although this feature is already implemented, performance optimizations are a work in progress.

When there is a need to tweak the clusterization behavior, the cluster radius and zoom can be overridden specifying query strings. For example, if you need to load the map with an initial zoom level of 15, and a radius of 0.001 you will access it like this:

dev.treetracker.org?zoom=15&clusterRadius=0.001

To find the correct value for the cluster radius in a given zoom level, play with some ranges between 0.1 and 0.00025. However, feel free to experiment however you like.

When these values are overridden, you can zoom and drag the map freely, while keeping the same clusterization behaviors.

Another useful tool to use in conjunction with this is the web browser's console (in Chrome or Firefox, hit F12 to open it). Whenever the map is updated, current zoom level and cluster radius used will be output to the console, so you have a better idea of what is going on.

Future:

• Filters and Statistics
• View photo together with tree data
• View planter profile.
