Amateur Dota 2 League

Setting up this app with Heroku¶ ↑

Currently, TinyTDS (MSSQL Adapter) needs a special buildpack on Heroku. To get around this: heroku config:add BUILDPACK_URL=github.com/Helabs/heroku-buildpack-ruby-freetds.git

After creating your app or setting up your existing app to use the buildpack, you need to modify the DATABASE_URL config variable to point to your sqlserver instance. We currently use a SQL Server 2008 Express edition:

heroku config:add DATABASE_URL=sqlserver://username:password@sqlserver_host:1433/database_name

Finally, we need to add the data from application.yml (our Dota2 API key and so on). Since we use Figaro (see that gem page for more info), we can simply run rake figaro:heroku, which will set all our variables on heroku. An application.sample.yml is included to show an example of what would be needed.

Rails 4¶ ↑

Recent migration to Rails 4 was a minimal effort update, meaning some things might not be best practices. Some things to evaluate:

• config/secrets.yml

• upgraded cookie signing (secret_key_base)

• Web Console…do we want it?

• have our milliseconds desynched anywhere (to_json)

• PATCH vs PUT

Polymorphism¶ ↑

As we make the scheduling and tournament system more generic:

• Fix: Relys on one participant_type per season

Tournaments¶ ↑

Implementing native single and double elimination tournaments:

• Jquery Plugin needs tweaks (maybe cherry picks) to not hover nil teams, fix CSS class naming to not conflict with bootstrap (SUIT?), handle better inline editing callbacks

• Double elimination needs to be implmented

Cap Notes¶ ↑
