Elif - Simple ExtJS Chess Elo tracking App

This is simple Chess Elo tracking app written in ExtJS 6.5 Modern using Sencha Architect and has backend written in NodeJS

Run the project:

Front-end You can download build front-end from https://github.com/petrvecera/ChessEloApp/releases as App.zip
This can be deployed on the webserver. There is url for the backend http://chess.pagep.net:8181 you can change this url in the source to the url you will need.

Backend Just run in the backend folder:
npm install
npm start

Dev:

• The front end is written in ExtJS 6.5 Modern using Sencha Architect 4.2
  Thus you will need SA if you want to commit any changes. Or just pick up the app and continue the independent ExtJS dev without SA.
• The back end is written in NodeJS
  • We are not using any DB, just simple .json

Gettings started:

Frontend:

• Copy the ext 6.5.2 framework into App/ext/
• Copy the premium addons (pivot grid, D3 HeatMap)
• Open the .xds project file in SA

Backend:

• Just open main.js in any editor you like

Build and install:

• Edit the url to the service backend in the stores in the app
• Bulding the sencha app build production in the app folder or use SA
• Copy the App/build/production folder to the web server
• Install NodeJS for the backend, copy the backend folder to the server
• Edit the player.json if needed
• Run npm install
• Run using node main.js

Disclaimer:

This is quickly written app. We don't think the approach to many used solution in the frontend / backend / API structure is the best one. We wanted to play chess not to create an app.
