Cider Spot

CiderSpot

Cider Spot is a web application built with Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, React.js, and JQuery, and is a cider review aggregator with social elements inspired by BeerAdvocate.

Main Functionality:

  • Search for ciders by name or brewery name
  • Filter results by most recently updated or average review
  • Submit, edit and delete reviews
  • Maintain a Cider Stash with ciders you want to try, have already tried and one's you've reviewed
  • Like other people's reviews of ciders
  • Edit user profile and upload an avatar

Additional Features:

  • Hand-rolled authentication via Rails
  • Server side searching and pagination
  • Integration with AWS for cloud storage of all uploaded assets
  • Hand-crafted error handler designed in React with Flux architecture to notify user of any issues in a pleasant non-intrusive or experience inhibiting manner
  • Modular model-level filtering to maintain active record for chaining of filters, eg:
def self.with_averages
  subquery = Review.select('reviews.cider_id AS cider_id, ((reviews.overall_rating +
    reviews.look_rating +
    reviews.smell_rating +
    reviews.feel_rating +
    reviews.taste_rating) / 5) AS total_scores')

  Cider.select("ciders.*, ROUND(CAST(AVG(totals.total_scores) AS numeric), 1) AS average, COUNT(totals.total_scores) as review_count").joins("LEFT OUTER JOIN (#{subquery.to_sql}) as totals on ciders.id = totals.cider_id").group('ciders.id')
end

Future Features:

If I have some free time I would really like to continue to add to the social aspect of the site, my main features to come will be:

  • Friend other users
  • Ability to message other users
  • Let users add ciders
