Found this How do I Push Code ... knowledge article (have not tried 😄).

Hi there,
I was trying your project on glitch and succesfully created a poll.
But as I try to vote from different browsers and IPs, I see that only one vote is taken in account.
Try it at https://livepoll.glitch.me/vote/6Uy0D8EymKk7ApAY

Did I miss something?

BTW, fsevent is a pain:

No Node version was specified; we are using default version 10. You can change this in package.json: https://glitch.happyfox.com/kb/article/59-can-i-change-the-version-of-node-js-my-project-uses/

Initializing node_modules, hold on...

Ive imputed the _id but the vote-bar is not showing up for me i get no errors and the console.log is showing up.
by vote-bar i mean the results
what am i missing?

sorry if this doesn't belong here

Syntax Error (Unexpected end of Input)

// public/sketch.js
async function submitVote() {
  let choice = radio.value(); // choice is a number
  if (!isNaN(choice)) {
    let response = await fetch(`vote/${poll_id}/${choice}`);
    let status = await response.json();
    console.log(status);
  } else {
    console.log('no choice selected');
  }
// no closing curly brace

yeah, that.

Ive tried renaming "env.example" to "env"

is there something else?

I could make a poll and only add 1 option or even 0 options, but I did see some code that was fixing that, it didn't work...

This project is actually not using hardly any p5 specific code anymore, and it might benefit more from a library like jQuery to do the dom manipulation rather than have p5 still in there.

Any thoughts?

Every time there can only be 5 options. And you mentioned this problem on the youtube video you made on May 10th, 2021.

is there a way we can toggle the spam check?

i had something that at lest seemed to work, before it got updated.

Listing some changes/improvements to the Live Poll

• In homepage, add VOTE button and SEE LIVE RESULTS button for each poll (instead of linking to results link)
• In every page: Instead of using h1 for the name of the page, we can do

<!-- (use pug equivalent) -->
<h1><a href="/">The Coding Train Live Poll</a></h1>
<h2>{name of page ("Currently active polls", "Create a Poll", etc)}</h2>

• /create route: add better styling for form elements (public/css/style.css)
• Fix visual bug: when the width of progressbar is less, the number of votes doesn't render correctly (See) (fixed in #72)

Currently, to have live data, we make an HTTP request twice per second. I think Web Sockets would be an alternative to consider. We could use Express WS or Socket.IO to transmit the data.

Pros: Prevents from doing unnecessary HTTP requests and spamming the server
Cons: To receive each new vote could spam the clients
Fix: We could make the server only send events each X seconds

Let me know what you think and, if you like the idea, I'll try to write a PR.

I don't actually need a database b/c I can just store the votes in memory for a real-time poll. But what if I want to restart the server and not lose the votes? Currently I'm using nedb just as a simple beginner-friendly database example, please add your suggestions and thoughts to this thread!

This project is currently Unlicensed. We should add a Open Source License, as the project is driven by the community! (MIT? <3)

I was going through the code and I was wondering why do we use pug? Yeah, there are the includes but that can easily be done with simple javascript. We don't use it's more complex features.

All the other routes say Cannot GET /route/that/does/not/exist

I don't have any UI related artistic ability but I think it'd be useful!

Everything should be train themed with hearts and rainbows!

maybe add a way to remove old polls

@shiffman

I'm going to go ahead and merge this and we can sort out #96 separately!

Originally posted by @shiffman in #97 (comment)

Different "views" for different scenarios in OBS. For example, maybe a semi-transparent background for when the OBS video is very noisy and busy.

is there a way to bypass the voting only once for testing / fafing aboot with it?

• deploy to glitch!
• accessibility concerns (rainbow color etc.?)
• endpoint for new poll and front-end for new poll
• anti-spam protections?

There has been recent update in Hacktoberfest, wherein now individual repositories have to voluntarily opt-in for Hactoberfest in order for the PRs to count. Read more here: https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com/hacktoberfest-update.

PRs count if:
Submitted in a repo with the hacktoberfest topic

(Source: https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com/hacktoberfest-update)

Could the hacktoberfest topic be added to this repository in order to make the PRs eligible for Hacktoberfest?

I made an app for a cat or dog poll. My method was simpler and more beginner friendly.
It counted how many of each on the client side and then displayed it. It used nedb and express it only had one file for the server.
I'll post it to github soon. Thank you so much Bye!!!

I'm confused as to getting it set up on my system.
