Benchmark

A crowdsourced website to find the best thing!

I want to use this project to learn some new technologies, those being

• Oauth - for signing in Don't think this will work, due to using python not js or dart
• Pocketbase - for a backend, and for administration, - will have to do some oddities with this, but should work fine
• Beer.css/Material design - For the UI

If these go well, I might use them more, depends on how well this project goes

Install instructions

First thing you need is a pocketbase instance, which should have the following tables:

• users_real
  • This contains all the users data, due to using pocketbase the wrong way.
  • It needs:
    • id -> as id type
    • email -> as email type
    • username -> as string type
    • pwd -> as string type
    • voted_count -> as int type
  • Email should have a unique constraint
• thing
  • This contains all of the Things, and all of their data.
  • It needs:
    • id -> as id type
    • name -> as string type
    • matchups_won -> as int type, no decimals
    • matchups_in -> as int type, no decimals
    • approved -> as bool type
    • denied -> as bool type
    • creator -> a relationship to a users_real object, singular
  • Name should have unique constraint & be non empty Then you need to clone the repo

git clone https://git.minejerik.dev/minejerik/bestthing

Then update all of the ip addresses in the code, to the one for your pocketbase instance. After that install of the requirements.

pip install -r requirements.txt

Then you should just be able to run main.py
