Instructions

Introduction

Tumblr is an ultra popular microblogging website.

A microblog is:

A social media site to which a user makes short, frequent posts.

This is easier shown than described, so check out this tumblr filled with funny dog memes.

Iteration 1 | User Profile Pictures

In the starter code, we've already provided a User model and the authentication logic. Unfortunately, the user doesn't have a profile picture.

Fix the User Registration so that it allows the user to upload a file as their profile image.

Iteration 2 | Posts

In this iteration, create the bread and butter of Tumblr, the Post.

A post should have the following attributes:

  • content - Text belonging to the post
  • creatorId - ObjectId of the post's creator
  • picPath - Where the picture is stored
  • picName - The picture's name

For this iteration you must create the model, along with the new, create, show and index routes. This should include file uploading.

A user should be logged in to create a post, but not to view.

The index will be the home page, and simply display all of the posts on the website.

Iteration 3 | Comments

Posts have comments attached to them. Create the Comment model as a subdocument of the Post.

A comment can have images attached to it, but not all do.

The model should have the following attributes:

  • content
  • authorId
  • imagePath
  • imageName

You should create routes to create new comments. Comments should be displayed on the Post show page.

Iteration 4 | Deploy!

The last step in IronTumblr should be to deploy to Heroku. Don't forget to deploy your database on mongolab.

Your site should be live and functioning with a working URL.
