BackMeUp Timeline-Search

A map- and timeline search frontend for BackMeUp.

Developer Instructions

• Make sure you have a running search backend available for development. (At the moment, the project expects an ElasticSearch instance running on the default port.)

• Open index.html in your browser, with the browser's same-origin-policy is disabled. (E.g. on Chrome, start with chrome-browser --disable-web-security)

Build Instructions

The project includes a gulpfile for building a packaged version using the gulp build system. The gulpfile defines the following tasks:

• gulp (default): builds a minified version of the code, without the external dependencies of simplehistogram.js, dateflipper.js and Leaflet.

• gulp unminified: builds a non-minified version of the code, without the external dependencies of simplehistogram.js, dateflipper.js and Leaflet.

• gulp no-deps: builds a minified version of the code, with the external dependencies of simplehistogram.js and dateflipper.js included. (Leaflet will not be included though!).

Make sure you have the gulp plugins gulp-concat, gulp-uglify and gulp-concat-css installed.
