Chat

Chat, Nov. 28, 2018

By Conor McCarthy

Description

This is a chatroom and direct message application. The application is built with Angular 6 and Firebase. A user can create their own chatroom, go to a previously created chat room or directly message another user. My code is broken up down by pages which hold their components.

Setup/Installation Requirements

• Open file in your terminal
• Clone the repository
• Navigate to the file in your terminal and enter $ NPM Install
• Run ng serve for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.
• Run ng generate component component-name to generate a new component. You can also use ng generate directive|pipe|service|class|guard|interface|enum|module.
• Run ng build to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the dist/ directory. Use the --prod flag for a production build. -include an evironments.ts file with the following code and insert your own Firebase project details: export const environment = { production: false, firebase: { apiKey: '', authDomain: '', databaseURL: '', projectId: '', storageBucket: '', messagingSenderId: '' } };

Known Bugs

None.

Under Construction

The profile section is currently under construction. A user can upload a profile picture, but the bio does not update. I am adding functionality to send images in the chat section. I am working on optimizing the site for mobile.
