A web service for displaying information/advertisements on a monitor.

Notice

You may have to make a lot of modifications if you want to use this project yourself since the project is designed to work a specific way.

Requirements

  • Node.js (tested with version 6.11.2 and 8.4.0)
  • MySQL
  • Reverse Proxy (such as nginx)

Usage

You have to use our auth project (which will be available here when finished) to use the admin page functionality.

The Node.js web service makes sure that the currentImages.json is updated.

Setup a table for the admins and advertisements:

Admins table:

CREATE TABLE `admins` (
  `cid` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`cid`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci;

Adverts table:

CREATE TABLE `advert` (
  `id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `active` tinyint(3) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  `startDate` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `endDate` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `name` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
  `author` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
  `committee` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
  `originalFilename` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
  `currentFilename` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
  `tempPriority` tinyint(3) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=36 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci;

Copy config.json.dist to config.json and configure it accordingly for your setup.

Run npm install to install the required dependencies.

Run the service by running node app.js.

I think that's it.

Dev tips

You can run the service locally using NODE_ENV=development node app.js to ignore the authentication module. You still need a MySQL server though.
