PongTime

Track stats for individual players

The stack

PongTime is end-to-end javascript; Node on the server and Angular on the client.

The server app is powered by Express and uses Sequelize ORM. Personally I use it with Postgres but theoretically it should work with whatever dialects are supported by Sequelize. It also uses Redis as a session store, but this should be pretty interchangeable via Express modules too. Express serves up a single page Angular app, which communicates with the backend via a REST API.

Installation

Assuming you've already got Node and your DB installed...

# install node dependencies 
npm install

# copy the example config file, edit it with your DB, redis, google auth settings
cp config.example.js config.js

# install bower dependencies
# you need bower in your path, easiest way is to install globally
npm install -g bower

# install the frontend dependencies with bower
cd public
bower install

Running it

You can fire it up with node pong, but if you want to run it as a daemon, you can use forever.

There's a super-basic CLI tool in models/dbutils.js that has a few functions you can call with node models/dbutils command
