xiacongling commented on pull request #1158: KYLIN-4424 use static web server to help frontend development
URL: https://github.com/apache/kylin/pull/1158
 
 
   Add `grunt-contrib-connect` to start a static server and `grunt-contrib-watch` to trigger rebuild on source code changing. Additional middleware to fine tune the static web server:
   - grunt-connect-rewrite: solve context root problem
   - grunt-connect-proxy: proxy REST API to existing Kylin instance
   
   usage:
   ```
   cd /path/to/kylin/source/root/webapp
   grunt devserver
   ```
   a static web server will listen on `localhost:7071`
   
   note:
   in Gruntfile.js, proxy is set to `127.0.0.1:7070`. If your Kylin instance is started in docker with default settings, it will be okay. Otherwise, you may need to change the `host:port` to adjust to your environment.

> To verify frontend code changes, one need to build the source and re-deploy the target to Tomcat. It is not so efficient for frontend development. 
> We can start a static web server and proxy `/kylin/api/**` to the existing Kylin service and  automatically refresh the static web server after source code being changed. By doing so, we can make the frontend development easier.
