README

This is not an officially supported Google product.

This README explains how to install the app and get it running in the cloud. This document is split up into five sections:

  1. Running the app 100% locally without any server setup
  2. Creating your test environment
  3. Creating your production environment
  4. Configuring advanced functionality
  5. Adding gallery images, sound effects, and languages

1. Running the app 100% locally without any server setup

You can run the application locally from your computer without setting up any server-based resources as described in the items below. Saving and sharing wheels won't work, but it may be enough if you want to run the application without hosting it online. Here is how to do it:

  1. Clone the repo
  2. Run npm install
  3. Run build_dev.sh [or do the Windows equivalent]
  4. Run npx serve ./dist [or any static file server like http-server or caddy]

2. Creating your test environment

You will first create a project for your test environment. This will let you run your code on your local machine, and deploy to a test environment in the cloud.

A. Create a project on Google Cloud Platform

  1. Go to https://console.cloud.google.com.
  2. Click the Select a project item at the top of the screen.
  3. Click New project in the window that appears.
  4. Enter a project name. Users will access your app at https://X.web.app, where X is the project name, so choose your project name wisely.
    • If this is the first time you are performing these steps, you are creating your test environment. I recommend you enter X followed by -test as your project name; for example: mywheel-test.
    • If this is the second time you are performing these steps, you are creating your production environment. I recommend you enter X as your project name; for example: mywheel.

B. Create a Firebase project

  1. Go to https://console.firebase.google.com.
  2. Click Create a project.
  3. When you are asked to enter your project name, pick the Google Cloud Platform project you created in the previous section.
  4. When asked, pick whatever billing plan works best for you.
  5. When asked, don't enable Google Analytics for your project.
  6. Click the Create project button.

C. Create a new web app in Firebase

  1. Select your newly created Firebase project, and then click Project overview in the left-hand navigation bar.
  2. Click the web icon under Get started by adding Firebase to your app.
  3. Enter a nickname for your app and check the Firebase Hosting checkbox.
  4. Follow the instructions to install the Firebase CLI.
  5. Don't run firebase login, firebase init, or firebase deploy. Instead, just click through to finish the setup.

D. Set up Firebase Authentication for Google

  1. Select your newly created Firebase project, then click Develop followed by Authentication in the left-hand navigation bar.
  2. Click Set up sign-in method.
  3. Click Google in the list.
  4. Click the slider in the upper right-hand corner to enable Google sign-in.
  5. Click Save.

E. Create a Firestore database

  1. Select your newly created Firebase project, and then click Cloud Firestore in the left-hand navigation bar.
  2. Click Create database.
  3. Pick the option to start in Production mode.
  4. Pick a database location that is close to the majority of your users.

Run the app locally

Modify .firebaserc

  1. Open the file .firebaserc, or create it if it doesn't exist.
  2. Modify it to look like this (where Z is the id of your test project, for example mywheel-test or serene-screwdriver-2341):
    {
      "projects": {
        "test": "Z"
      }
    }

Install Node modules

  1. At the command prompt, run
        npm install -g firebase-tools
    
  2. At the command prompt, run
        firebase login
    
  3. At the command prompt in the top-level directory, run
        npm install
    
  4. At the command prompt in the functions directory, run
        npm install
    
  5. Go back up to the top-level directory.

Create build/dev.env

  1. In the build directory, create the file dev.env with this contents:
    FUNCTION_PREFIX=
    FIREBASE_API_KEY=
    FIREBASE_AUTH_DOMAIN=
    FIREBASE_DATABASE_URL=
    FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID=
    OAUTH_CLIENT_ID=
    GCP_APP_ID=
    
  2. Add these values after the equal signs:
    • FUNCTION_PREFIX: Run the script ./build_and_serve_local.sh. You will see a message saying
      http function initialized (http://localhost:5001/mywheel-test/us-central1/createSharedWheel2
      
      Copy the string starting at http and ending before createSharedWheel2. For example:
      http://localhost:5001/mywheel-test/us-central1
      
      Close down the process when done by clicking Ctrl C.
    • FIREBASE_API_KEY: Go to console.firebase.google.com and click your Firebase project. Click the cogwheel next to Project overview. Copy the value of the Web API Key.
    • FIREBASE_AUTH_DOMAIN: Enter Z.firebaseapp.com where Z is the id of your test project. For example mywheel-test.
    • FIREBASE_DATABASE_URL: Enter https://Z.firebaseio.com where Z is the id of your test project. For example https://mywheel-test.firebaseio.com.
    • FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID: Enter the id of your test project. For example: mywheel-test.
    • OAUTH_CLIENT_ID: Go to console.cloud.google.com and select your project. Click the navigation menu in the upper right-hand corner of the page. Select APIs & Services and then Credentials. Under OAuth 2.0 Client IDs, copy the Client ID for the auto-generated web client. It should end with apps.googleusercontent.com.
    • GCP_APP_ID: Go to console.cloud.google.com and select your project. Click the navigation menu in the upper right-hand corner of the page. Select Home. Under Project info, copy the Project number. For example: 57344078235.

Host the app on your local machine

  1. In the top-level directory, run ./build_and_serve_local.sh.
  2. One of the messages will say something like
    ✔  hosting: Local server: http://localhost:5000
    
  3. Open that URL in your browser. Your application is now running on your local machine. If you click Save, Open, or Share, your machine will access the Firestore database in your test project in the cloud.

Deploy to your test environment in the cloud

  1. Copy the file build/dev.env to build/test.env.
  2. Run ./build_test.sh.
  3. Run ./deploy_test.sh. If one of the functions fails to deploy, run the command again.
  4. You will see a message saying
    Function URL (getSharedWheel): https://us-central1-mywheel-test.cloudfunctions.net/getSharedWheel
    
    Copy the string starting at https and ending before /createSharedWheel. For example:
    https://us-central1-mywheel-test.cloudfunctions.net
    
  5. Open the file build/test.env.
  6. Paste the URL you copied above into the first line. For example:
    FUNCTION_PREFIX=https://us-central1-mywheel-test.cloudfunctions.net
    
  7. Run ./build_test.sh and ./deploy_test.sh again. Now that you have updated the file build/test.env, running these two scripts will be enough to deploy your code to your test environment in the cloud.
  8. You will see a message like
    Hosting URL: https://mywheel-test.web.app
    
    Go to that URL to use the application in your test environment in the cloud.

3. Creating your production environment

Create and configure projects

Do steps A through E under Creating your test environment above. When you create your Google Cloud Platform project, enter a project name without -test. For example: mywheel.

Modify .firebaserc

  1. Open the file .firebaserc.
  2. Modify it to look like below. Replace the brackets and the text in them with your project names.
    {
      "projects": {
        "prod": "[id of your production project]",
        "test": "[id of your test project]"
      }
    }

Modify build/prod.env

  1. Copy the file build/test.env to build/prod.env.
  2. Add these values after the equal signs:
    • FUNCTION_PREFIX: Run the scripts ./build_prod.sh and ./deploy_prod.sh. If one of the functions fails to deploy, run ./deploy_prod.sh again. You will see a message saying
      Function URL (getSharedWheel): https://us-central1-mywheel.cloudfunctions.net/getSharedWheel
      
      Copy the string starting at https and ending before /createSharedWheel. For example:
      https://us-central1-mywheel.cloudfunctions.net
      
      Enter this value after FUNCTION_PREFIX= in the file.
    • FIREBASE_API_KEY: Go to console.firebase.google.com and click your Firebase production project. Click the cogwheel next to Project overview. Copy the value of the Web API Key.
    • FIREBASE_AUTH_DOMAIN: Enter Z.firebaseapp.com where Z is the id of your production project. For example mywheel.
    • FIREBASE_DATABASE_URL: Enter https://Z.firebaseio.com where Z is the id of your production project. For example https://mywheel.firebaseio.com.
    • FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID: Enter the id of your production project. For example: mywheel.
    • OAUTH_CLIENT_ID: Go to console.cloud.google.com and select your production project. Click the navigation menu in the upper left-hand corner of the page. Select APIs & Services and then Credentials. Under OAuth 2.0 Client IDs, copy the Client ID for the auto-generated web client. It should end with apps.googleusercontent.com.
    • GCP_APP_ID: Go to console.cloud.google.com and select your production project. Click the navigation menu in the upper left-hand corner of the page. Select Home. Under Project info, copy the Project number. For example: 64967613275.

Deploy to your production environment in the cloud

  1. Run ./build_prod.sh.

    URL [Copy the value of FUNCTION_PREFIX from build/prod.env]/deleteUsedSharedWheels
    HTTP method GET
  5. In the list of scheduled jobs, click the Run now button for each one, to make sure it works. Wait a minute and click the Refresh button so see the success or failure of the jobs.

5. Adding gallery images, sound effects, and languages

Adding gallery images

These are the images that show up if you click Options, then the Image tab, and then select From Gallery.

  1. Prepare your image files. Ideally they are square or nearly square and about 200-300 pixels wide.
  2. Put the image files in the static/images directory.
  3. Open the file ImageCache.js and add the new images to the import statements at the top of the file.
  4. Open the file galleryImageList.js and add the new images to the exports at the top of the file. Enter the file's name and what name it should show up as in the Gallery dropdown box.

Adding sound effects

These are the sound effects that the user can choose from if they click Options, then the During spin or After spin tab.

  1. Prepare your sound files. Ideally they should be mp3 files. Music files that aer meant to play when the wheel is spinning should be 30 seconds long.
  2. Put the sound files in the root directory.
  3. Open the file audio.js and add the new sound files to the import statements at the top of the file.
  4. In the same file, add the new sound files to
    • duringSpinSounds if they should be available to play while the wheel is spinning.
    • afterSpinSounds if they should be available to play after the wheel has stopped.

Adding languages

The languages are visible in the dropdown box near the upper right-hand corner of the web page.

  1. Make a copy of the file locales/en-US.json. Give the new file a name that contains the code and locale of the language you wish to add. For example, if you want to add German as spoken in Germany, you'd add the file de-DE.json.
  2. Each line of this file contains the id of a string, a colon, and the value of that string in the chosen language. Translate the values (after the colons) to your new language.
  3. Special case: the string with id Click the Language menu, should say the language's name in that language instead of English. This string appears to the user if they are viewing the website in a different language than what their system users. For example, if a person with a German system views the website in English, they should see the message
    Klicken Sie auf das "Language"-Menü oben rechts, um zu Deutsch zu wechseln.
    
  4. Add a row at the beginning of Locales.js for your new language. Follow the format of the existing rows.
