Mobile Scratch Player Frontend

This project is the Scott Logic intern's web front-end for the Scratch player.

This contains a Node.js server to supply the files for projects, generate manifests, and scrape the Scratch website. These are located in the *.js files in the root directory. It also contains an Angular.js app to power the web front-end, which is located in /app/.

Getting Started

To get the player working on your computer:

Clone the scratch-app repository, and install the dependencies (npm install).
Clone the scratch-html5 repository here, rename it to scratch-player, and place it in the root of this repository. (So the folders in the repository are app, node_modules, scrach-player, soundbank and test)
Start the server with npm start.

You can also see the commands below to install correctly.

Prerequisites

You need git to clone the repositories. You can get it from http://git-scm.com/.

This repository needs Node.js, since there's a Node server running to generate manifests and scrape the Scratch website.

Cloning the repositories

Clone this repository using git:

git clone https://github.com/WPFerg/scratch-app.git
cd scratch-app

Clone the player repository:

git clone https://github.com/WPFerg/scratch-html.git scratch-player

Install Dependencies

Run npm install. This will call the requisite installations on sub-repositories, such as Bower for the Angular.js app.

Run the Application

Run npm start

Now browse to the app at http://localhost:3000/.

Testing

There are three separate tests in this project: the web front-end tests, the server tests, and the unit tests for the Scratch player.

To run the unit tests for the web front end: npm test

To run the tests for the server:

Ensure Jasmine v2's installed by
$ npm install jasmine-node@2.0
then ensure the node server's up with
$ npm start
in another terminal, run
$ jasmine-node --verbose test/node-server-test.js  --matchAll

To run the unit tests for the Scratch player:

cd scratch-player
npm test
