Eden Web

Description

This website was written by Godmode from the Eden Server with inspiration from FFXIAH and Arcanus.

Dependencies

  1. Node.js
  2. pm2 for deployment

Setup

  1. After installing Node make sure you are able to run npm commands in your shell.
  2. Copy the example.env as .env in the root directory and fill in the appropriate credentials.
  3. Run the npm i command on the shell in the root directory.
  4. Run the npm i command on the shell in the /client directory.

Running

Production

  1. Build the project by performing npm run build in the root directory.
  2. Then run npm start from the root directory.

Development

  1. Run npm run dev in the root directory.

Linting & Code Formatting

The 'client' React app is setup with its own ESLint and Prettier config, plus a VSCode workspace config which enables format on save and issue highlighting. For this to work properly, open the 'client' folder as your project in VSCode. Test this is working by creating an issue such as incorrect tab spacing (Prettier), or referencing state or props directly in JSX to trigger a 'use destructuring' prompt (ESLint). You should see squiggly lines in the code and be able to hover over this for more info and potential quick fix options. Saving the file will solve any automatically fixable issues.

Notes on the 'client' app

Ideally the 'client' React app should be able to function on its own without at the API. Therefore it should handle its own dependencies in terms of node modules and any configuration. Please ensure that any npm packages required for 'client' are installed at the 'client' level and not at the root API level.

Styling

The front-end primarily uses Bootstrap v4.5^ alongside 'react-bootstrap' components. 'Semantic UI' is also used in some places.

Bootstrap theme customisation is setup and lives in 'index.scss', which is imported into 'index.js'.

Local database setup

Software:

  • MariaDB: The database itself, take note of the password you set as it will be used to access it later!
  • HeidiSQL: A good GUI to manage the database.

Create the database

  1. Open HeidiSQL and click on "New" (bottom left) to create a new session.
    • Use the password you set during the MariaDB installation.
  2. Once connected to the session, right click on your session to the left, click "Create new > Database" and name it eden_web.

Setup the necessary tables and data

  1. Select the newly created eden_web database on the left (it will get a green tick mark).
  2. Navigate to "File > Run SQL file...", and then select every .sql file from the sql\tables of this project, and click Open.
  3. Once it's done running the SQL files, your tables will be setup, and you can see the result by hitting the Refresh button (or F5) in HeidiSQL.

Adding character and misc. other data

In sql\queries\samples you can find example SQL scripts for adding content to the website. Copy the ones you need to use from the sql\queries folder, and modify them as you see fit. Any new files within the sql\queries folder are ignored by git, so you can make as many changes as you want to the scripts you have there.

The SQL scripts can be run in the same way as when you were setting up the tables and data:

  1. Select the eden_web database on the left (it will get a green tick mark).
  2. Navigate to "File > Run SQL file...", and then select the .sql file(s) you want to run from the sql\queries folder, and click Open.
  3. Once it's done running the SQL file(s), you can see the result by hitting the Refresh button (or F5) in HeidiSQL.

ENV variables for your local MariaDB
