RAMP Deployment with RCS

This document describes how to deploy RAMP and connect it with an existing RCS deployment. RAMP works as a standalone application just fine, if you want to deploy it in that manner just ignore the RCS integration below. The full RCS deployment procedure is describe elsewhere.

RAMP Setup

1. Get a RAMP release package that is compatible with the RCS version the version numbering does not need to match up, but the RCS release notes should indicate which RAMP versions it is compatible with
2. Extract the RAMP deployment package to a directory readable by your web server
3. If you are referencing any non-CORS enabled services please setup an appropriate proxy (ESRI has a github resource that provides several under an MIT license) and make the appropriate change in the config.??.json files (remember to update both languages)
4. Ensure that your web server sets the MIME type application/json when transferring .json files
5. Test your RAMP installation to ensure it is working prior to integrating with RCS

Connecting to RCS

1. Edit the RAMP-starter.js file in the root of your RAMP install
2. Set the configServiceURL to point to your RCS installation (please include a trailing slash)
