Week 4 of 30 Min Project - 2015 1/19/15 - 1/25/15

January 26th, 2015

This week:

• Finish up Angular front-end

Day 1 1/19/2015 Today:

• Figure out why my constants aren’t being loaded/injected properly, file is there, but it just isn’t working :/
  • http://mindthecode.com/how-to-use-environment-variables-in-your-angular-application
  • oops, realized I forgot to inject it into one of my services that needed it
• Sweet, now I have a semi-working app :P.
• Next up
  • register
  • login
  • todos page
• Let’s get register working properly

  * whoops, missed an api endpoint for creating a user :P
  * create a new endpoint for registering
  * POST /user ? - that makes sense, keep POST /users for admin functionality
  

  Next steps:
• Finish register
• Implement login
• Start on todos front-end page
  • get todos
  • add todo
  • update todo - mark completed, edit the name

Day 2 1/20/2015 Today:

• Register endpoint
  • What the hell? My post isn’t going anywhere, just keep getting a 400 back
  • Grr, getting "Bearer token required”. Why? I’m not dealing with auth on this?
  • Weird, take out the client auth stuff and it now gets to the route endpoint properly, odd
  • Basic endpoint works now :)
• Wire this in to front-end Next steps:
• Finish wiring in register to front-end
• Make sure I can login
• Start working on todo front-end interface

Day 3 1/21/2015 Today:

• Finish wiring in register to front-end
  • OK, it’s calling to the service and inserting an empty user - WTF?
  • It might help if I actually sent the damn data :/
  • Done!
• Login - works! Next steps:
• Start working on todo front-end interface

Day 4 1/22/2015 Today:

• Start working on todo front-end interface

  * Trying the resource path again to see if I can get that working properly for the todos endpoints
  * Got form put in and a list of todos, nothing fancy yet
  

  Next steps:
• Add in methods to:
  • add todo
  • complete todo

Day 5 1/23/2015 Today:

• Date Night interruptus :P Next steps:
• Add in methods to:
  • add todo
  • complete todo

Day 6 1/24/2015 Today:

• Add in methods on angular side to:

  * add todo
  * complete todo
      * Looks like there is no default method for PUT, which is what should be used for REST interfaces, need a custom method for update
      * Also, need to make sure that we use Auth headers when sending requests
      * http://blog.brunoscopelliti.com/authentication-to-a-restful-web-service-in-an-angularjs-web-app
      * and also need to override/add a new method for update
      * but still have a question about adding custom headers for each of the default methods
      * will try what I have and see if it works
  

  Next steps:
• Finish wiring and test solution to see what’s left

Day 7 1/25/2015 Today:

• SLACKER!

Weekly Recap: Accomplishments:

• Got my user registration bit working and wired in to front-end
• Got front-end build working correctly with different environment constants
• Started wiring in todo management endpoints to front-end (but not completed) Next week’s goals:
• I’m going to come back to this later, most of the skeleton pieces are done, just a few more things that need to be done
• Time to start digging into Go as well as some Docker fun for iota
