DJ Spoti is an 11-day, four-person project during Mod 3 of 4, for Turing School's Back-End Engineering Program.
Our challenge was to create a web application from idea to inception. Project requirements included: authentication with a third-party service, consuming an API, and solving a real-world problem.
Thus, DJ Spoti was born. DJ Spoti is a web application designed to solve the problem of one person being in charge of the music at a party and being unable to take into account all of the music preferences of their fellow party-goers. DJ Spoti enables users to create a collaborative music experience by logging into the app and inviting their friends via a text message. From there, DJ Spoti aggregates the favorite songs of all session party users and cultivates a playlist with all user preferences in mind.
DJ Spoti utilizes the languages of Ruby, HTML, CSS, the web framework of Rails, and authentication via Spotify OAuth. The Spotify API is utilized to consume user playlist preference data.
To run DJ Spoti on a local machine, navigate to the directory in which you would like the project to be located, then execute the following commands:
$ git clone git@github.com:Mackenzie-Frey/dj_spoti.git
$ cd dj_spoti
$ bundle
$ rails g rspec:install
$ rails db:create
$ rails db:migrate
$ bundle exec figaro install
Add the following code snippet to your config/application.yml file. Make sure to insert the key/secret without the alligator clips ( < > ).
SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID: <insert>
SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET: <insert>
To run the test suite, execute the following command:
rspec.
To view DJ Spoti in development, execute the following command from the project directory: rails s. In a browser, visit localhost:3000, to view the application.
To view the application in production, from the project directory, execute the following commands:
$ createuser -s -r dj_spoti
$ RAILS_ENV=production rake db:{drop,create,migrate}
$ rake assets:precompile
$ rails s -e production
