Donegood

To start your Phoenix app:

1. Install dependencies with mix deps.get
2. Create and migrate your database with mix ecto.create && mix ecto.migrate
3. Start Phoenix endpoint with mix phoenix.server

Note you'll need environment variables for FACEBOOK_CLIENT_ID, FACEBOOK_CLIENT_SECRET, TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY and TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET

Now you can visit localhost:4015 from your browser.

What I did

Installing Phoenix globally

mix archive.install https://github.com/phoenixframework/phoenix/releases/download/v1.1.1/phoenix_new-1.1.1.ez

Found the .ez file link on this page.

Adding JS libraries (via Brunch):

npm install --save react # goes into dependencies in package.json
npm install --save-dev react-coffee-brunch

Although that ended up breaking things so I reverted it.

Adding a User model (and scaffolding)

mix phoenix.gen.html User users name:string email:string bio:string number_of_pets:integer

Adding a Deed JSON model

Use mix phoenix.gen.json, including user_id:references:users for the relationship and adding has_many :deeds, Donegood.Deed to the User model

Inserting data

Ran the server with iex -S mix phoenix.server

alias Donegood.Deed
alias Donegood.Repo

params = %{ title: "Helped someone move", body: "Had to go across town in the rain", duration: 14400, user_id: 1 }
changeset = Deed.changeset(%Deed{}, params)
Repo.insert changeset

Adding JS stuff

Added coffeescript support in package.json with

 "coffee-script-brunch": ">= 1.8",

and then npm install. Can add these with

npm install --save react-coffee-brunch

Added

      presets: ['es2015', 'react'],

to brunch-config.js to get jsx templating in app.js, having done

npm install babel-preset-react --save

Also had to npm install react-dom and then add react and react-dom to the whitelist

Adding authentication

Found Ueberauth / Guardian - looked at this project to see how to install it

Adding additional migrations

mix ecto.gen.migration add_ueberauth_fields

Adding API explicitly

Moved wellbeing api into /api. Didn't have to explicitly declare Donegood.Api. namespace thankfully.
