Getting Started

These instructions will help you get a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See the Deployment section for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

Prerequisites

Before running the project, ensure you have the following installed:

• Node.js (v14.0 or higher)
• MongoDB (for user data and game scores)
• Git (for version control)

Example:

$ node -v  # To check Node.js version
v14.17.0

$ git --version  # To verify Git is installed
git version 2.30.0

Installing

Follow these steps to set up the development environment:

Step 1: Clone the Repository

$ git clone https://github.com/username/UniW.git
$ cd UniW

Step 2: Install Dependencies

$ npm install

Step 3: Set Up Environment Variables

Create a .env file in the root directory with the necessary configurations:

MONGODB_URI=mongodb://localhost:27017/uniw
PORT=3000
JWT_SECRET=yourSecretKey

Step 4: Run the Development Server

$ npm run dev

You should now have a local copy of UniW running at http://localhost:3000.

ESLint Configuration

To ensure code quality and maintain consistency, it's recommended to expand the ESLint configuration, especially for production applications. Follow these steps to configure ESLint with type-aware lint rules and React support:

Step 1: Update parserOptions

Configure the top-level parserOptions to include your TypeScript configuration files:

// eslint.config.js or .eslintrc.js
export default tseslint.config({
  languageOptions: {
    // other options...
    parserOptions: {
      project: ['./tsconfig.node.json', './tsconfig.app.json'],
      tsconfigRootDir: import.meta.dirname,
    },
  },
});

Step 2: Extend Recommended Type-Checked Configurations

Replace tseslint.configs.recommended with either tseslint.configs.recommendedTypeChecked or tseslint.configs.strictTypeChecked to enable type-aware linting.

export default tseslint.config({
  // ...other configurations
  extends: [
    'tseslint/configs/recommendedTypeChecked',
    // or
    'tseslint/configs/strictTypeChecked',
  ],
});

Optional: Add stylisticTypeChecked for additional stylistic rules.

export default tseslint.config({
  // ...other configurations
  extends: [
    'tseslint/configs/recommendedTypeChecked',
    'tseslint/configs/stylisticTypeChecked',
  ],
});

Step 3: Install eslint-plugin-react and Configure

Install the React plugin:

$ npm install eslint-plugin-react --save-dev

Update your ESLint configuration to include the React plugin and set the React version:

// eslint.config.js or .eslintrc.js
import react from 'eslint-plugin-react';

export default tseslint.config({
  settings: { react: { version: '18.3' } },
  plugins: {
    react,
  },
  rules: {
    // other rules...
    // Enable React's recommended rules
    ...react.configs.recommended.rules,
    ...react.configs['jsx-runtime'].rules,
  },
});

Running the Tests

End-to-End Tests

We use Jest for testing. To run all tests, use the following command:

$ npm test

Example Test:

test('User registration', () => {
    expect(registerUser('username', 'password')).toBeTruthy();
});

Coding Style Tests

We enforce consistent code style using ESLint. Run the following to check for style violations:

$ npm run lint

---

Deployment

To deploy UniW on a live system, follow these additional steps:

1. Set Up a Cloud Server: Deploy the app to platforms like AWS or Google Cloud.
2. Environment Configuration: Ensure environment variables such as MONGODB_URI and JWT_SECRET are properly configured for production.
3. Start the Application:

   $ npm start

4. Configure Reverse Proxy (Optional): Use Nginx or another reverse proxy to handle requests and improve security.
