Edit config.json as needed to modify the staging and deployment process.

Changes made to javascript and CSS must be deployed to cdn.knightlab.com to be used. If you haven't yet, check out that Git repository to the same directory that contains your storymapjs respository.

To stage your changes without forcing latest users ahead, type fab stage This runs a build, copies the files into a versioned directory in your local cdn.knightlab.com repository, and tags the last commit with a version number.

To stage your changes to latest, type fab stage_latest This copies files from the versioned directory in your local cdn.knightlab.com respository into the corresponding latest directory.

You have to push and deploy all CDN changes separately.

You need the secrets repository to deploy to S3. If you haven't yet, check out that Git repository to the same directory that contains your storymapjs respository.

To update S3, type fab deploy. This runs a build using the latest version tag and synchronizes the files in the build directory with S3.
