Whiteboard Node.js

Writeboard is a free speech wall build with a socket server on Node.js. Rich text and media is supported with the Cloudinary API. If it is still up, it can be found here: https://calpoly-devcamp.herokuapp.com/.

This web application is built on top of the Heroku Tutoiral found here: [Getting Started with Node on Heroku].

Developer Notes: Running Locally

We are using Nodemon which can be installed here

  • Running your local server: '''nodemon index.js''' Quit the server using CTRL-C
  • set databaseMode = false in the database_manager (cannot hit the mongoDB instance locally. if you want to configure that, be my guest)
  • You can now open your instance @ http://localhost:5000/

Developer Notes: Deploying to Heroku

  • git pull --rebase ALWAYS (add packages using npm install just in case_
  • '''git push ''' to master AND THE PIPELINE DEPLOYS FOR US <3 <3 <3
  • if you are testing database changes, make sure to set the databaseMode = true and deploy to stage before pushing to Prod
