fishbowl.rocks

A Go + React web app to play FishBowl remotely! Get your friends on a video call, share a link to the game, and have everyone throw a few nouns in the "bowl" to get started :)

Technologies

Frontend: Serverless React app deployed with Cloudflare Workers

Backend: Golang + Redis backend deployed to Digital Ocean with Kubernetes

CI/CD with Github Actions

Getting started

This project requires Go, npm and Docker to be installed. On OS X with Homebrew you can install dependencies with:

Dependency	Homebrew Install
Go	brew install go
npm	brew install node
Docker	brew install docker

Local Dev

For development, you might find it easier to run the backend and frontend separately (outside of the docker container) so you can watch frontend changes.

Starting the go server:

$ make local-backend

You should keep this terminal open to see logs from the go service

In another terminal start the frontend with:

$ cd ./frontend/ && REACT_APP_WS_SCHEMA=ws REACT_APP_WS_HOST=localhost:8080 npm run start

Note: If this is your first time running the app, you will have to run npm install before npm start.

You can view the frontend by navigating to http://localhost:3000

Testing

Run the backend unit tests with:

$ make test
