js-whatsforlunch

Version 2.0

This JS web app is to help me (and my team) to decide where to head off for lunch by randomly choosing one of the regular venues.

The list of venue is retrieved using Firebase API

Venues can be disabled by toggling the item.

Instructions

###Prequisites Install NPM (if you do not have one)

Install Gem and Compass

Install dependencies

npm install

Execute Grunt

grunt watch

How to run

Instantiate JS

var lunchTime = new LunchTime();

You may overwrite settings by parsing:

var settings = {
        allowAudio  : true,
        randomise   : true,
        defaultLocation   : "newlocation",
        timer       : {
                        interval: 200
                      }
    },
    lunchTime = new LunchTime(settings);

Firebase JSON string

The JSON string should be just a simple list

{
	"location1":{
		"item1" : " Cafe A",
	    "item2" : " Cafe B",
	    "item3" : " Cafe C"
	},
		"location2":{
		"item1" : " Cafe X",
	    "item2" : " Cafe Y",
	    "item3" : " Cafe Z"
	}

    
}
