Brooklyn-Based Board Gaming signup sheet

This directory contains a small web application that acts as a signup sheet and attendee tracking system for my local board gaming meetup.

Development

Installing dependencies

With Nix + Docker ("blessed way")

Prerequisites:

From this directory in a full checkout of depot, run the following commands to install all development dependencies:

$ pwd
/path/to/depot/users/aspen/bbbg
$ direnv allow
$ lorri watch --once # Wait for a single nix shell build

Then, to run a docker container with the development database:

$ pwd
/path/to/depot/users/aspen/bbbg
$ arion up -d

Choose-your-own-adventure

Note that the authoritative source for dev dependencies is the shell.nix file in this directory - those may diverge from what's written here; if so follow those versions rather than these.

  • Install the clojure command-line tools, with openjdk 11
  • Install and run a postgresql 12 database, with:
    • A user with superuser priveleges, the username bbbg and the password password
    • A database called bbbg owned by that user.
  • Export the following environment variables in a context visible by whatever method you use to run the application:
    • PGHOST=localhost
    • PGUSER=bbbg
    • PGDATABASE=bbbg
    • PGPASSWORD=bbbg

Running the application

Before running the app, you'll need an oauth2 client-id and client secret for a Discord app. The application can either load those from a pass password store, or read them from plaintext files in a directory. In either case, they should be accessible at the paths bbbg/discord-client-id and bbbg/discord-client-secret respectively.

From the command line

$ clj -A:dev
Clojure 1.11.0-alpha3
user=> (require 'bbbg.core)
nil
user=> ;; Optionally, if you're using a directory with plaintext files for the discord client ID and client secret:
user=> (bbbg.util.dev-secrets/set-backend! [:dir "/path/to/that/directory"])
user=> (bbbg.core/run-dev)
##<SystemMap>
user=> (bbbg.db/migrate! (:db bbbg.core/system))
11:57:26.536 [main] INFO  migratus.core - Starting migrations {  }
11:57:26.538 [main] INFO  com.zaxxer.hikari.HikariDataSource - HikariPool-1 - Starting... {  }
11:57:26.883 [main] INFO  com.zaxxer.hikari.pool.HikariPool - HikariPool-1 - Added connection com.impossibl.postgres.jdbc.PGDirectConnection@3cae770e {  }
11:57:26.884 [main] INFO  com.zaxxer.hikari.HikariDataSource - HikariPool-1 - Start completed. {  }
11:57:26.923 [main] INFO  migratus.core - Ending migrations {  }
nil

This will run a web server for the application listening at http://localhost:8888

In Emacs, with CIDER + direnv

Open //users/aspen/bbbg/src/bbbg/core.clj in a buffer, then follow the instructions at the end of the file

Deployment

With nix+terraform

Deployment configuration is located in the tf.nix file, which is currently tightly coupled to my own infrastructure and AWS account but could hypothetically be adjusted to be general-purpose.

To deploy a new version of the application, after following "installing dependencies" above, run the following command in a context with ec2 credentials available:

$ terraform apply

The current deploy configuration includes:

  • An ec2 instance running nixos, with a postgresql database and the bbbg application running as a service, behind nginx with an auto-renewing letsencrypt cert
  • The DNS A record for bbbg.gws.fyi pointing at that ec2 instance, in the cloudflare zone for gws.fyi

Otherwise

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You'll need:

  • An uberjar for bbbg; the canonical way of building that is nix-build /path/to/depot -A users.aspen.bbbg.server-jar but I'm not sure how that works outside of nix
  • A postgresql database
  • Environment variables telling the app how to connect to that database. See config.systemd.services.bbbg-server.environment in module.nix for which env vars are currently being exported by the NixOS module that runs the production version of the app
