# js13kgames website
The source of the js13kgames.com website.
Installation
- Ensure Node 5 is installed, then go to the project folder and execute on a shell:
npm install
-
Install Imagemagick
-
Copy the .sqlite database in the root folder of the project
-
Copy
config.js.exampleasconfig.jsand update fields as needed (for example: domain and the mailing section) -
Edit the migrations table (just once) in the .sqlite file:
ALTER TABLE migrations ADD COLUMN name varchar;
Note: Node 5 is used because of sqlite. To upgrade node, a new package for sqlite needs to be used.
Running
After installing, run all the migrations executing:
./node_modules/.bin/sequelize db:migrate
Then compile the assets with:
npm run compile
And finally, start the app with:
npm start
Then go to http://localhost:3000 and enjoy.
Development
To precompile your assets during development run:
gulp watch
This will process the SASS files in the source folder and write them to the public/assets folder of the site ready to
be used. Each change to the SASS file will trigger a new build.
To clean the assets:
gulp clean
Create new database migration
./node_modules/.bin/sequelize migration:create --name <name-of-your-migration>
Where <name-of-your-migration> is the name you want for your new migration file. Sequelize will create a new file at
the migrations folder with a name similar to 20170729220958-name-of-your-migration.js. Open that file and edit the
up and down sections accordingly.
CSS Methodology
The files are pre-processed SASS files. These are not processed at run time via express for performance reasons.
The files are arranged based on recommendations - http://thesassway.com/beginner/how-to-structure-a-sass-project and
generate a single main.css file.
The CSS is structured around 12 column grid bootstrap grid. Additional
styles use the BEM (block element modifier) methodology. In short this means styles are component based and do not
cascade preventing issues around importance.
See https://en.bem.info/methodology/ for more details.
