UI configuration for the application
This page offers details of the DIGIT UI configuration required to enable it in any environment. Browse through the configuration details listed below:
eGov recommends CD/CI be set up before developing on top of DIGIT. This ensures that new modules can be developed and deployed in a streamlined way. DIGIT ships with CI as code as part of the DevOps repository. Please run the CI installer to setup DIGIT CD/CI before developing on DIGIT.
Step 1: Add entry in build-config.yaml file in the master branch of the forked repository. This will set up the job pipeline in Jenkins. Make sure to add the same config to the feature branch you are working on. Refer build-config.yaml
Add the below content for digit-ui.
Step 2: Go to the Jenkins build page, select "Job Builder" and click on "Build now". This will pull the config from build_config.yaml and identify all modules that need to be built.
Step 3: Once the build is done, go to your Jenkins build page. The service will appear under the repository path in which it has been added, i.e. if the service is added under frontend, it will show up in the frontend section as below,

This section contains the configuration that applies globally to all UI modules. These need to be configured before the configuration of service-specific UI.
Create a config file (globalconfigs.js) with the below-mentioned config (refer to code below).
Configure all the images/logos required in the S3 and add links as footerBWLogoURL , footerLogoURL.

file located in the DevOps repository's configmaps
under egov-config
, follow the steps below:
Add the s3-assets-bucket: "pg-egov-assets"
After adding the proxy in the environment file, restart the s3-proxy
build in the environment with config enabled.
