Alternative way to spin-up app in local without Contenful dependency

[ridhof]

Hi, I tried to contribute today, but I feel like the Contentful dependency is painful.

without filling the .env with proper Contentful config, I got these error log:

wait  - compiling /_error (client and server)...
event - compiled client and server successfully in 136 ms (763 modules)

I tried to create a Contentful account so that I can fill the .env with my own keys, but it still gives me error.
It's saying that I don't have the certain table needed from the code shown below.

error - Error: Cannot query field "eventCollection" on type "Query". Did you mean "assetCollection
or "entryCollection"?: {"response":{"errors":[{"message":"Cannot query field \"eventCollection\" o

It means that if Contentful connectivity is really needed to run the app locally, we need the exact tables and columns with the Surabayajs current production tables and columns.
So, we need a migrator?
I am not sure with that, because I am not familiar with a migrator, unless its SQL migrator.

So what?
I found a hacky way to "disable" Contentful connectivity, by replacing src/pages/index.tsx file on line 43 to be shown below:

// const data = await cms().homePageQuery({
  //   locale: i18n["i18n-code"][locale] as string,
  // });
  const data = { eventCollection: { items: null } };

I am curious on how are you going to handle this, like, its a barrier toward the open source.
Contributors might unable to contribute anything without knowing the way to hack the Contentful connectivity.

Thanks
