orrisroot 87c0274bc1 feat: migrate from Create React App to Vite
Rebuild the site on the stack the other converted sites share: Vite 8,
React 19, TypeScript 7, react-router 8, Biome and sanitize.css, with the
site data moved out of the bundle into static-contents/.

- base the database, credits and pico code on cerebellum.neuroinf.jp,
  keeping this site's item types, rankings and menus
- port the MediaWiki pages to function components
- serve all module data from modules/, redirecting the old download and
  /database/file URLs
- tile the plate texture and keep form controls on white
- track page views with GA4

Dynamic Brain Platform

Static front-end for the archived Dynamic Brain Platform, built with Vite, React and TypeScript.

Requirements

  • Node.js 20.19+ / 22.12+ (Vite 8)
  • npm

Setup

npm install

Site data

The pages are rendered from JSON dumped out of the original XOOPS installation by xoops-static-exporter (sites/dynamicbrain.neuroinf.jp/). All of it lives in static-contents/, which sits next to the repository rather than inside it:

dynamicbrain.neuroinf.jp/
├── dynamicbrain.neuroinf.jp/   this repository
└── static-contents/
    ├── modules/                one directory per source XOOPS module
    │   ├── credits/            credits.json, images/
    │   ├── documents/          pico: config.json, <content id>.json, images/
    │   ├── hackathon/          pico: config.json, <content id>.json, images/, data/
    │   ├── mediawiki/          contents.json, contents/<id>.json, images/
    │   └── xoonips/            tree.json, items.json, rankings, file/<id>/
    ├── conferences/            static conference sites, served as they are
    ├── hetero/                 static project site, served as it is
    └── rss.xml

The RewriteBase in every modules/xoonips/file/<id>/.htaccess carries the absolute path of that directory, and the image and file URLs inside the JSON carry /modules/<module>/...; both have to move with the layout.

The dev and preview servers mount that directory at the site root. It is kept out of dist/, and it is not tracked in git.

Scripts

Command Description
npm run dev Start the dev server on http://localhost:5173
npm run build Type-check and build into dist/
npm run preview Serve the production build on http://localhost:4173
npm run lint Lint with Biome
npm run format Format with Biome
npm run check Lint, format and organize imports, applying the safe fixes

@types/node is pinned to the major that matches the Node runtime in use (24); .ncurc.js keeps npm-check-updates from bumping it past that.

There is currently no test suite.

Styles

The base stylesheet is sanitize.css with its forms and typography sheets, with its box-sizing: border-box kept. Where one of its defaults does not suit the theme, the theme rule for that place sets its own value rather than overriding the element everywhere.

Deployment

Build locally and copy the result up; the server does not need a toolchain.

npm ci
npm run check
npm run build
../deploy.sh

deploy.sh, next to static-contents/, sends the data to archive:/data/www/dynamicbrain.neuroinf.jp/static-contents/, then dist/ to .../html/, and finally links every top-level entry of static-contents/ into the document root over ssh (ln -sfn ../static-contents/* .). The data has to go first: the document root's rsync --delete removes those links, and they are only put back at the end.

Apache needs Options FollowSymLinks and AllowOverride All on both directories. Use symlinks rather than Alias: an Alias maps the URL outside the document root, so .htaccess no longer applies and the SPA fallback and the redirects stop working.

Redirects

.htaccess redirects these addresses with a 301:

From To
/modules/xoonips/download.php?file_id=N /modules/xoonips/file/N
/database/file/... /modules/xoonips/file/...

XOOPS-style addresses (/modules/xoonips/detail.php?item_id=N, /modules/mediawiki/index.php/<page>, /modules/documents/..., /modules/credits/..., /index.php) are redirected inside the app.

Google Analytics

GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_TRACKING_ID in src/config.ts carries the GA4 measurement ID. Emptying it disables tracking. Only production builds send page views.
