Final Project

Introduction

ToBoard is a collaborative whiteboard which allows students to work on problems together. Students can simultaneously draw on an empty whiteboard.

Dependencies

• Cinder
• mongocxx driver

Build Instructions

Instructions will assume that you are working within the CLion IDE

1. Set up Cinder (instructions modified from UIUC CS 126 Spring 2020)
   • Download Cinder (v0.9.2) for your platform. Extract the downloaded item into a folder. We’ll call this folder ~/Cinder throughout the instructions
   • Open the ~/Cinder folder in CLion and click the green build button. This will build libcinder. You only need to do this once per machine. This build might take a while.
   • Create a directory, say my-projects in ~/Cinder. Clone the final-project project into this folder. You can checkout your repository here.
2. Install the mongocxx driver (r3.5.0)

Run Instructions

• Follow instructions to install MongoDB on your platform
• Start a MongoDB instance on localhost:27017
  • If for any reason you have to use another port, modify the kDatabaseUri variable in database_manager.h
• Open the final-project project in CLion, set the target to cinder-myapp and click the run button.
