Customizing the Learning Paths by using a hosted JSON file

For ease of use and simplicity, you can configure the Learning Paths by using a hosted JSON file.

Procedure

1. Publish the JSON file containing your Learning Paths data to a web server, such as GitHub or Gitlab. You can find an example at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/redhat-developer/rhdh/release-{product-version}/packages/app/public/learning-paths/data.json.

2. Configure the {product-short} proxy to access the Learning Paths data from the hosted JSON file, by adding the following to the {my-app-config-file} file:

   proxy:
     endpoints:
       '/developer-hub':
         target: <target>
         pathRewrite:
           '^/api/proxy/developer-hub/learning-paths': '<learning_path.json>'
         changeOrigin: true
         secure: true

   <target>

   Enter the hosted JSON file base URL, such as https://raw.githubusercontent.com.

   <learning_path.json>

   Enter the hosted JSON file path without the base URL, such as '/redhat-developer/rhdh/main/packages/app/public/learning-paths/data.json'

   Tip

   When also configuring the home page, due to the use of overlapping pathRewrites for both the learning-path and homepage quick access proxies, create the learning-paths configuration (^api/proxy/developer-hub/learning-paths) before you create the homepage configuration (^/api/proxy/developer-hub). For example: proxy: endpoints: '/developer-hub': target: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ pathRewrite: '^/api/proxy/developer-hub/learning-paths': '/redhat-developer/rhdh/main/packages/app/public/learning-paths/data.json' '^/api/proxy/developer-hub/tech-radar': '/redhat-developer/rhdh/main/packages/app/public/tech-radar/data-default.json' '^/api/proxy/developer-hub': '/redhat-developer/rhdh/main/packages/app/public/homepage/data.json' changeOrigin: true secure: true
