To get started, you should have the app URL and an admin token for your Reindex app. If you don’t have a Reindex app yet, you can sign up for a free development account at reindex.io.

Get the starter kit #

We have assembled an open source starter kit for getting started with Reindex. It includes React and Relay set up together with the reindex-js client library. The starter kit also has examples on how to quickly add authentication to your app and deploy it in production.

Clone the starter kit:

git clone git@github.com:reindexio/reindex-starter-kit-react.git

Install the dependencies and Reindex CLI:

cd reindex-starter-kit-react
npm install
npm install -g reindex-cli

Login to Reindex. You will be prompted for your Reindex URL and admin token.

$ reindex login
Reindex URL: https://YOUR-REINDEX-APP.myreindex.com
Reindex Token: YOUR-REINDEX-TOKEN

Edit ./src/config.js file to contain your URL.

export default {
  REINDEX_URL: 'https://YOUR-REINDEX-APP.myreindex.com',
};
