IF IT"S NOT WORKING LOCALLY, IT MIGHT BE B/C THE POOL.JS IS SETUP FOR HEROKU

Duncanoe

This version uses React, Redux, Express, Passport, and PostgreSQL (a full list of dependencies can be found in package.json).

I created Duncanoe to help beginners plan a trip to the Boundary Waters. I found that the first time I planned a trip, it was hard to keep track of all the information I needed to remember. To make matters worse, my friends and I just used a google doc to keep track of everything. The google doc became very unorganized and hard to read through. Duncanoe will help the user plan their trip in an organized fashion, as well as answer some basic questions for the user. For example, the app will estimate how far the user's group can paddle in a day, as well as what items the user will need to bring.

Prerequisites

Before you get started, make sure you have the following software installed on your computer:

Create database and tables

Create a new database called prime_app. See the database.sql file for all the queries needed to setup the database.

Development Setup Instructions

  • Run npm install
  • Create a .env file at the root of the project and paste this line into the file: 
    SERVER_SESSION_SECRET=superDuperSecret
    While you're in your new .env file, take the time to replace superDuperSecret with some long random string like 25POUbVtx6RKVNWszd9ERB9Bb6 to keep your application secure. Here's a site that can help you: https://passwordsgenerator.net/. If you don't do this step, create a secret with less than eight characters, or leave it as superDuperSecret, you will get a warning.
  • Start postgres if not running already by using brew services start postgresql
  • Run npm run server
  • Run npm run client
  • Navigate to localhost:3000
