Firefox Accounts Content Server

Static server that hosts Firefox Account sign up, sign in, email verification, etc. flows.

Quick Start

Clone the repository, make sure you have required prerequisites installed. Run npm install and npm run start-remote. This will start a local fxa-content-server on http://127.0.0.1:3030 that works with remote Firefox Accounts servers.

If you want to install all Firefox Accounts servers locally follow the instructions on: fxa-local-dev to get a full development setup running. Please note that fxa-local-dev is the preferred way of contributing to Firefox Accounts.

Development Notes

Changes to stylesheets

To have the css resources automatically rebuilt after changes, run grunt sass watch. Now whenever a change is made to the .scss files, the corresponding css resources will be rebuilt.

Changes to scripts and templates

Any changes made to the scripts or the template files will automatically be reflected on page refresh.

Testing

Prerequisites:

• Java JDK or JRE (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html)
• Selenium Server 2.53.0 (Download)

Setup

• Run Selenium Server

e.g. in shell form:

java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.53.0.jar 

To run tests locally with Selenium:

npm test

To change the default auth server edit server/config/*.json on your deployed instance.

{
  "fxaccount_url": "http://your.auth.server.here.org"
}

Note that testing with Selenium via Docker does not work at present, so all testing must be carried out via your normal operating system's npm & Java tooling.
