This repository demonstrates the usage of various technolgies for building a game application in the MVC architectural style. The technologies will be based on the Node.js engine and will utilize the Express.js framework.

Other technologies include:

• Bootstrap for templating
• Handlebars for view engine (used with Bootstrap)
• Sequelize as ORM
• MySQL as the database

1. create a database called projects_db

mysql -u root

create database monster;

2. install modules in package.json

npm install

3. install sequelize cli globally to be able to run migrations on your computer:

npm install -g sequelize-cli

4. run your migrations to create your tables

sequelize db:migrate

5. start up the app

nodemon start

if you don't have nodemon

npm start

6. Want to create a migration:

sequelize migration:create create-<table name here>

edit the migration file

to run the migration file:

sequelize db:migrate

You'll still have to make the model file

6. curious of all the commands you can do with sequelize cli?

go here: https://github.com/sequelize/cli

7. curious of all the sequelize relationships:

http://docs.sequelizejs.com/en/latest/docs/associations/

In order to associate the models with each other, you need to change the models like this:

// user.js
// ...
classMethods: {
  associate: function(models) {
    Person.hasMany(models.Task)
  }
}
// ...

And finally you have to adjust the config/config.json to fit your environment. Once thats done, your database configuration is ready!
