Build and deploy a CRM adapter

Once you have developed your adapter for a CRM, it is time to try it out. To do that, you will need to do two things:

Build a Chrome extension and load it into your browser
Deploy your adapter's server to a publicly accessible server

Building the Chrome extension

Build scripts have been provided to assist you in building the Chrome extension you will install in your browser.

Build the Chrome extension
```
cd rc-unified-crm-extension/client
npm run build
```
When you have completed the above, inside the rc-unified-crm-extension/client directory you will find a build/dist directory. The dist folder contains your Chrome extension.
Install the Chrome extension
- Open your Chrome web browser
- From the "Window" menu, select "Extensions"
- Click "Load unpacked"
- Select the dist folder created in the previous step

Deploying server to AWS

Technically your adapter's server could be deployed anywhere. You could host it yourself, or deploy it to a third-party like Heroku or AWS. To assist developers, we have provided a serverless config file for AWS deployment under the serverless-deploy.

Customize your environment

cd rc-unified-crm-extension/server/serverless-deploy
cp sample.env.yml env.yml

Then edit env.yml.

Customize your serverless deploy config
```
cp sample.serverless.yml serverless.yml
```
Then edit serverless.yml
Build and deploy the server
```
npm run build
npm run deploy
```

Deploying to another platform

If you want to deploy it to other platform. Run npm run build and a build folder will be created for you in the serverless-deploy folder. You can then deploy this build folder to any other hosting provider.
