My first Hive Condenser contributions

My first Hive Condenser contributions | Ecency

Hi everyone, this is my first Hive blog post!

I hope everyone has started to feel home in this new blockchain although things are not completely settled yet.

Like most Witnesses and community developers, I've been busy with the move and have been contributing with few code changes to the Condenser.

Condenser contributions

Docker compose scripts

Just to make life easier to those who like using Docker for dev, I added few docker-compose.yml and bash scripts. The production files allow the use of Nginx-proxy to serve multiple Condenser on the same server, in case you want to host multiple Condenser sites. The dev files will launch an instance that watches for changes and recompile if needed.

Supporting Hive Keychain

@stoodkev has announced that he has created a new Keychain for Hive. This next merge request is to switch the Hive Condenser to use this new extension for sign-in.

Fix unit tests

As I was developing, I noticed there were some unit tests that were failing due to the change of currency. This fixes them.

Use two different color for upvote and downvote buttons

@svemirac suggested we should use two colors for the upvote and downvote buttons as the current red and pink are not very distinctive.

LiveReload

@therealwolf requested for a LiveReload feature. Currently when you change a file, Webpack detects and re-compile the project but you still need to reload the page yourself. LiveReload does the job for you.

Disclaimer: some merge requests have been approved, some others are still pending. So you might not see them on the site yet.
