We have learned how to upload files and now is the time to practice this a bit more.
- Fork this repo
- Clone this repo
Upon completion, run the following commands:
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "done"
$ git push origin master
Create Pull Request so your TAs can check up your work.
Tumblr is an ultra-popular micro-blogging website.
A micro-blog is:
A social media site to which a user makes short, frequent posts.
This is easier shown than described, so check out this tumblr filled with funny dog memes.
In the starter code, we have already provided the user model and the authentication logic. Unfortunately, the user doesn't have a profile picture.
Fix the User Registration so that it allows the user to upload a file as their profile image.
In this iteration, create the bread and butter of Tumblr - the posts.
A post should have the following attributes (this actually describes the Post
model):
content
- the text belonging to the postcreatorId
- ObjectId of the post's creatorpicPath
- where the picture is storedpicName
- the picture's name
For this iteration you must create the model, along with the (get) post-form, (post) create, (get) posts and (get) post-details routes. The create route should include file uploading.
A user should be logged in to create a post, but not to view it.
The posts will be the home page, and simply display all of the posts on the website.
Posts have comments attached to them. Create the Comment model as a sub-document of the Post.
A comment can have images attached to it, but not all do, so it is not required.
The Comment
model should have the following attributes:
content
authorId
imagePath
imageName
You should create routes to create new comments. Comments should be displayed on the details page of a single post.
The last step in IronTumblr should be to deploy to Heroku. Don't forget to deploy your database on MongoLab/Mongo Atlas.
Your site should be live and functioning with a working public URL.
Happy coding! ❤️
