DreamBumps

An application to make Oxford bumps racing EVEN MORE FUN!

Development

Run the server:

./gradlew

Or run in an IDE (e.g. Eclipse, IntelliJ). This can either be configured to use H2 (in memory database started by the process) or MySQL/MariaDB, which you'll have to run separately.

TODO: provide a more complete start position.

Run the client in webpack-dev-server:

cd ./src/main/frontend
yarn
yarn install

Note that the database is initially pretty empty - it doesn't even start properly to day zero, and definitely has no crews.

Building for production

Build the front end code to be served by the backend:

cd ./src/main/frontend
yarn
yarn build

Then need to copy the output (everything in dist) to be served by the frontend (where?? Might be src/main/webapp, might be src/main/frontend/static).

To optimize the DreamBumps application for production, run:

./mvnw -Pprod clean package

To ensure everything worked, run:

java -jar target/\*.war

Deployment to Heroku

Do the production front end build first. Then follow these instructions.

This is how the app has been deployed so far. Note that the app will probably overflow the free tier of JawsDB.

Deployment to AWS

TODO - probably use Docker?

Deployment with Docker (e.g. AWS)

TODO

Building for Torpids/Eights

There's a backend config file (Constants) with number of crews etc. The front end gets this over the API.
Some string changes are required in the front end. Could move these to being pulled from the API.

Plans

Fix some bugs
Improve error handling
Build the automatic data collection into the app
Maybe a new backend? The Spring one is pretty heavy...
