Mosaic is a content aggregating, headless CMS solution which can be ran with server side rendering (SSR) or as a statically generated site (SGS).

• Running with SSR enables you to publish updates in realtime, just by updating the originating source.
• Running as a SGS enables you to create an immutable snapshot of your content which will not update in realtime.

To create a Mosaic site, we have created a simple command line generator.
Refer to @jpmorganchase/mosaic-create-site

To serve your site, pulling dynamic content in realtime and rendering with SSR

Create the required environment variables

> export MOSAIC_DOCS_CLONE_CREDENTIALS="<git user>:<git PAT token>"
> yarn serve

A snapshot is an immutable copy of the content pulled from your configured data sources.

To create a snapshot of your content for serving as a SGS, you have 2 modes.

• snapshot-file mode, creates and stores snapshots as files within in this repo so you can deploy your site and content together
• snapshot-s3 mode, pulls your snapshot from a remote S3 bucket and enables you to deploy site and content seperately

> export MOSAIC_DOCS_CLONE_CREDENTIALS="<git user>:<git PAT token>"
> yarn gen:snapshot

This will create a snapshot in packages/site/public/snapshots/latest.

> export MOSAIC_S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID="<S3 bucket access key>"
> export MOSAIC_S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="<S3 bucket secret access key>"
> export MOSAIC_S3_REGION="<S3 bucket region>"
> export MOSAIC_S3_BUCKET="<S3 bucket name>"
> yarn mosaic upload -S <path to snapshot directory>

yarn serve:snapshot:file

yarn serve:snapshot:s3
