💻 How Can I Run It?

1. Fork (recommended) or Clone this repository

  git clone https://github.com/ErickLimaS/anime-website.git

2. Run npm install on your CMD to get all dependencies

npm install

3. Now you will need to create a .env.local file on the project root folder with the url to where your Consumet and Aniwatch is setted and the settings to your Firebase Account.

   • Go to these repos and host your own instance:
     • Consumet API
     • Aniwatch API
   • OPTIONAL: This project uses a JSON file (47 mb) filled with Animes and Mangas data as a offline Database. This repository already has this file, but it might be outdated, so you decide if you want to ignore this step.
     • Go to anime-offline-database and download the JSON file that will be used on only Search Page (or you can make some changes and use some API to fetch the data).
     • With the file downloaded, put it in the /app/api/anime-info directory, replacing the previous one.
   • On Firebase, get your configs to use the Authentication and Firestore Database.
     • All the Firebase info needed bellow can be found when you create a new project.
     • IMPORTANT: Make Sure to ALLOW your Hosted Website Domain on Firebase Authentication!

With all that done, you will need to fill the .env.local like the example bellow:

NEXT_PUBLIC_CONSUMET_API_URL=https://your-hosted-consumet-api-url.com
NEXT_PUBLIC_ANIWATCH_API_URL=https://your-hosted-aniwatch-api-url.com
// Make sure to add the pathname "/api/animes-database" bellow
NEXT_PUBLIC_NEXT_INTERNAL_API_URL=https://url-to-where-your-website-is-hosted.com/api/animes-database
NEXT_PUBLIC_FIREBASE_API_KEY=firebase-setting-related-to-this-field
NEXT_PUBLIC_FIREBASE_AUTH_DOMAIN=firebase-setting-related-to-this-field
NEXT_PUBLIC_FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID=firebase-setting-related-to-this-field
NEXT_PUBLIC_FIREBASE_STORAGE_BUCKET=firebase-setting-related-to-this-field
NEXT_PUBLIC_FIREBASE_MESSAGING_SENDER=firebase-setting-related-to-this-field
NEXT_PUBLIC_FIREBASE_APP_ID=firebase-setting-related-to-this-field
NEXT_PUBLIC_FIREBASE_MEASUREMENT_ID=firebase-setting-related-to-this-field
NEXT_PUBLIC_FIREBASE_DATABASE_URL=firebase-setting-related-to-this-field

4. Now run npm run dev to initialize the website

npm run dev

5. That's it! It should be running.

📂 How Firebase is Organized

Authentication

With Firebase Authentication, theres 4 methods of Login/Signup:

• Email
• Google
• GitHub
• Anonymous

It is used to store on User Document things like:

• User Profile Photo
• Username
• Preferences (media source, adult content, subtitles and more)
• Comments
• Notifications
• Bookmarked Medias
• Currently Watching Medias
• Episodes Watched/Chapters Read

Collections and Documents

With Firebase Database, we have 3 Collections:

Users

Stores only Users Documents after a successfull signup.

Comments

Stores comments made on episodes or on its main page.

Its separated based on Anilist API Media IDs Documents, and after that, a Collection that holds all comments to this media and other related to a episode where that comment was made.

It strongly depends on Users Collection, due to each comment needs its user (owner). Each comment has a referer to its owner and stores its interactions, with Likes and Dislikes.

When a Comment is made, it saves sort of a log on User Document, with infos like interactions with other comment or written on a episode.

Notifications

The Notifications Collections stores a document for each Media ID related to Anilist API every time a user assigned himself to be notified about a new episode release.

Each document has a Collection that holds every user assigned to receive a notification.

In this document, has info of all episodes already notified to any user and the next to be notified, cover art, if is complete, status and last update date.

• User Document Relation: After a successfull notification is deliveried to user, it stores the last episode info on User Document, so it can be notified again and the next one is released.
