Supernaturally stunning website

I love it so much and it's super responsive 😁 😁 😁 well done guys!!!!!

Password encyrption

Using bcrypt, the passwords are hashed before they are stored in our database.

Host our database on heroku

Once the local database is working we can the proceed to setting up heroku.
The following link may be helpful when setting it up:

and when connecting to it:

Restricted pages

Users should only be able to view /singles, /editprofile, /user-profile if they're logged in (but anyone can see /sign-in and /sign-up)

Not handling errors

After configuring the wrong database setup (#34), I've made an invalid request to sign up.

I get a 500 status code page with no logs on the server.

It seems that are swallowing the errors here and then not doing anything with them.

If this happens, it would be good to perhaps log the error here or handle it in the dbConnection.js file

401 errors

The site looks great - and it's a really nice idea.

Are there any particular login details - I've 'signed up', but am getting 401 errors within the site on any action....

Create handlebars

Starting with header and footer for partials (i.e src/views/partials/header.hbs)

Write database queries

• sign up (args: email, hashed pwd, returns: nothing): adds the user to users table and creates entry for them in the profiles table
• update profile (args: profile data, user id, returns: nothing): update user profile in profile table
• sign in (args: email, returns the hashed password)
• get profile (args: user id, returns: object with the users profile data)
• get id?

Should serve singles page

Page showing other users of the site

make app.js

app.js should setup and configure handlebars-express and other middleware, and require and use controllers

Production and Development environments

This perhaps shouldn't be used as a check for weather you are running a development or production database.

Instead you could consider setting a NODE_ENV or having different database configuration objects depending on which environment you are in (something like this: https://github.com/cul-2016/quiz/blob/staging/server/plugins/database.js#L18)

Submitting my edited profile takes me to a 401

However, on a later attempt when I got my edited profile working, it submitted but stayed on the same page. Navigating to the save-profile endpoint to give helpful information on the profile submission being successful would be ideal!

Test our routes

Using the supertest module we can write tests for the different routes.

How can I run your project locally

As a new developer to the project, I would like to see installation instructions for how I can run this project locally.

Something like this: https://github.com/dwyl/hapi-socketio-redis-chat-example#locally-on-your-own-machine

Needs to serve home route

Sign up form functionality

User should be added to the db

Use sessions

Could have more helpful 500 for email address already exists

The current message is: 500: Sorry, we've had a problem on our end

What environment variables will I need

As a developer, seeing that you are using env2, I would like to see in the README.md which environment variables I may need and how to get them in order to run the project locally.

Something like this: https://github.com/dwyl/hapi-socketio-redis-chat-example#running-the-tests-locally

Nice use of node-postgres parameters

I couldn't spot anywhere which you missed utilising the query parameter support.

This is important for preventing sql injections.

Great work 👍

Set up travis

Write script to populate database

write a script which uses our query files to pre populate the database with some aliens.

Create database files

Write the files in the db directory.

Spike on Session Management

Decide which express middleware to use for session management, and figure out the general parameters of how this will work, such as:

• which middleware to use

• how do we get the user id from the cookie (or from combination of cookie session id and session store)

• how to do session verification

On trying to save profile I get errors (more description below)

The first time I get a 500:
'500: Sorry, we've had a problem on our end'

After going back to my edit profile page and trying to submit, this time I get a 401:
'401: Access Denied'

HOWEVER!

After refreshing the page and signing up again, it worked! 👍

Cant see singles after login

After I press login, i cant see singles, it says unauthorised acess
