🍺 beer-buddy 🍺

This is a personal beer ranking/rating system. It is also going to serve as a sample app for NKU's CSC 439/539 course.

This application is built with spring-boot, angular, and material design

If you have any suggestions to make this a better application, please feel free to contact me or create an issue.

#Getting Started From beer-buddy/beer-buddy project run the following maven commands:

mvn clean install

In eclipse, or IDE of choice, run the java main application in beer-buddy/beer-buddy-web/src/test/com/beerbuddy/web/apprunner/AppRunner Another alternative is to look at spring-boots cli.

#TODO's and Road Map These are just some features that would be nice to add. Dare I call this a backlog??? Currently the app is really basic...

• Prioritize backlog
• Define MVP
• Front end performance
  • Clean out material-design-icons to reduce build time
  • Create bower dependency file
  • Create gulp script
    • automate bower dependency installs for bootstrapping the project
    • minify and compress js code
• Modularize architecture
  • Create a master pom
  • Create a core project
  • Create a security project
  • ❓ Investigate if it makes sense to extract the dao and supply an h2 and mySql implementation as seperate modules. (Local vs. Enviornment)
• Sync process needs to reject beers that have invalid images.
• Admin stuff
  • Create a queue-like-request system to where users can request to add beers to the list.
  • Need to have an admin section that can rerun the sync process.
  • Add ability for 'admin' users to review submitted new beer requests and approve/edit beer attributes.
• Security
  • Use spring-security fully and not just implement it manually... Currently implementing their interfaces but need to hook it up with thier configuration adapters
  • Support @Secured annotation on rest apis.
  • Use oauth
    • Google login
    • Facebook login
• Social
  • Tweet on titter?
  • Facebook sharing? posting?
• Add data visualization
  • Info-graphic like representation of how popular a beer is
• Add list of users and scan their rankings of beers
• Compare your ranking list with others
• Add search abilities on beer. ❓
  • Contextual search like google?
  • Or advanced search options based on fields?
  • Why not both?
• Multiple Views. (With an rest api, it would be nice to build ...)
  • Native android app
• Gamify app
  • Add badge system
  • Add levels
• Deploy to cloud service
  • Create persistant database (mySql:question:)
• Convert from maven to gradle
• Create sample test data to use for local development
• CI
  • Selenium end-to-end scripts
  • Setup Jenkins build system

Thanks for checking out beer buddy! Once it is hosted, I will provide a url

Cheers! 🍻
