##Word Finder (MIT License)

I took every english word (over 200k words) and built a little NodeJS app that will help you find words that contain specific characters.

Additionally, here are instructions to deploy this app to Nodejitsu, Heroku, and Azure via Windows or Mac.

##How to Use

###The underscore

Type a word into the text box with the following pattern:

he__o

And you'll get words such as:

hello
helio

###The question mark

This character is great for games like What's the Phrase (a knock off of Wheel of Fortune)

Type a word into the text box with the following pattern:

st???

and you'll get words such as:

stack
stade
staff
stage
stagy

but you wont get words like

start

because the t would already be visible (in What's the Phrase), and you would have typed:

st??t

##Instructions for running

Go to http://nodejs.org and install NodeJS

Then clone this repo:

git clone https://github.com/amirrajan/word-finder.git

And cd into the directory (all instructions below assume you are in the word-finder directory:

cd word-finder

##Run Locally

Install all the dependencies:

npm install (you may need to prefix this with sudo if you're on Mac)

To run tests, type:

jasmine-node .

If you want tests to execute every time you change a file:

jasmine-node . --autotest --watch .

Run the app:

node server.js

Then navigate to http://localhost:3000

##Signing up, and deploying to Nodejitsu

###Documentation

The documenation was available on the front page (right under the sign up for free button): https://www.nodejitsu.com/getting-started/

Install the Nodejitsu Package

npm install jitsu -g (you may need to prefix this with sudo if you're on Mac)

jitsu signup (yes you can sign up via the command line)

You'll get a confirmation email with a command to type in:

jitsu users confirm [username] [confirmation-guid]

If you've already registered, you can login with:

jitsu login

After you confirm your email, you can login (the confirm command should prompt you to log in).

Change the subdomain value in package.json, to reflect the url you want to deploy to:

{
  "name": "word-finder",
  [...],
  "subdomain": "word-finder" <--- this value
}

now deploy:

jitsu deploy

And your app should be up on Nodejitsu.

##Signing up, and deploying to Heroku

###Documentation

From heroku.com, click Documentation, then click the Getting Started button, then click Node.js from the list of options on the left...which will take you here: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/nodejs

Install Heroku toolbelt from here: https://toolbelt.heroku.com/

heroku login

Create your heroku app:

heroku create

Git deploy your app:

git push heroku master

Assign a dyno to your app:

heroku ps:scale web=1

Open the app (same as opening it in the browser):

heroku open

And your app should be up on Heroku.

##Signing up, and deploying to Azure

###Documentation

From windowsazure.com, click Documentation, click Developer Center, click node.js, then click the Learn More button which will take you here:

http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/nodejs/tutorials/create-a-website-(mac)/ (if you're on a Mac, looks like the link is contextual)

Install the command line tools from here:

http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/downloads/#cmd-line-tools (on Windows, be sure to install the cross platform command line interface...not the powershell version)

From the command line, first download your publish settings (this will redirect you to a website):

azure account download

After the .publishsettings file is downloaded, you'll need to import it:

azure acount import %pathtofile%

Next create the site, with a git backed repository:

azure site create %uniquesitename% --git

Deploy site:

git push azure master

List of your websites:

azure site list

And your app should be up on Azure.
