Web Hackathon Starter

It is a hackathon starter made in Scala (Play Framework). The idea is to have a base project in which to start a hackathon or use it as a boilerplate to start new a project.

It covers the base structure of the project, user management and a mini admin panel where registered users can be seen.

It aims to be a web application. In the case that the nature of the project is only API-based, take a look to API Hackathon Starter.

Getting Started

Clone the repo and follow these steps to leave the app running:

Database init

Create a database with name hackathonStarter:

DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS hackathonStarter;
CREATE DATABASE hackathonStarter DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;
USE hackathonStarter;

Create table structure and insert base data running conf/evolutions/default/1.sql and conf/evolutions/default/2.sql (only the !Ups sections in both files).

Server startup

Open a console, and run sbt command. Once the sbt is running execute run. When the startup has finished (first time it take a while to download all dependencies), open a browser and go to http://localhost:9000 for web, and http://localhost:9000/admin for admin panel.

To access the panel please login with admin username and the &rX3uZAwGE7JyuBW]h?{JX password. It's strongly recommended that you change the password the first time you get into the admin panel.

Obtaining API Keys

By default the email sent is turn off (all emails will be print in the output log). To activate it follow the next steps:

• Create an account at Sendgrid
• Obtain an api key and change the default value at conf/application.conf in app.sendgrid.apikey param. You may want to change the app.sendgrid.from param too.
• Turn on email send by changing to true the email.enabled param.
