App created with MERN stack.
Master branch is ready to be deployed to heroku app.
- Account on Heroku
- Heroku CLI installed
- MongoDB Account or another mongodb service
If you came accross some error create an issue :)
Firstly you need a Mongo database.
I would suggest creating a cluster at mongodb.com since I am also using this service.
After creating account and/or cluster click on connect then click on Connect Your Application and select Node.js as driver (version 3.0 or later).
Then copy the Connection String Only. This will be your value for DB key on Heroku app -explained below.
For example
Key: DB
Value: mongodb+srv://<user>:<password>@cluster0.mongodb.net/<nameofdatabase>?ssl=true&authSource=admin
If you are asked to type in a name of collection during creation of database, type in whatever you want.
Open terminal
heroku login- login to your heroku accountheroku create- this will create an app of some sort on your heroku acc.
Go to your appname, then settings.
Click on Reveal Config Vars and add following keys:
- DB: Value is your mongodb connections string, which you got above
Value should look like this
mongodb+srv://<user>:<password>@cluster0.mongodb.net/<nameofdatabase>?ssl=true&authSource=admin - JWT: Value "sl_myJwtSecret"
This should be all. If anything occurs create an issue.
In terminal type these commands (in order shown below)
-
git clonethis repo -
cdinto the cloned repo -
heroku git:remote <name of the created heroku app> -
git push heroku master- push into the heroku repo
This will build an app on your acc.
While in your heroku app dashboard click on Open app.
Done! Now go! Prepare your list of TV shows you are currently watching 😊
If you want noone else editing your stuff, there was a noregister branch in which there is no registration option, but I removed it. So if you do not want registration just check these two commits: Removed Registration and Fixed noregister
