It's a map!

It's a map is a simple map site built on Laravel using Mapbox. This is meant as a code test for myself, to see where I'm up to right now. If you like my steez, feel free to gmail me at abrahambrookes@

The App

Display a map of your favourite places to your friends. Create map markers, upload images and describe each map location in a nifty little digital map.

Features

• Edit your map with a cute little drag n drop interface (using MapboxGL-js)
• Add map pointers to your map (using Eloquent models)
• Upload an image for your map pointer (using Filestack)

Live version

If it's up, a live version will be located at iam.brookesy.dev. Feel free to register a dummy account and vandalize it.

Installation

1. Clone this repo - git clone https://github.com/AbrahamBrookes/itsamap.git

2. Install Composer dependencies - composer install

3. Install Node modules - npm install

4. Copy over .env - cp .env.example .env

5. Create a new mysql database and add the DB details to your newly minted .env

6. Migrate the db - php artisan migrate

7. Set up your virtualhost. Here's my setup:

   <VirtualHost *:443>
   
   	ServerName iam.brookesy.dev
   	
   	DocumentRoot /var/www/html/iam/public
   	<Directory /var/www/html/iam/public>
   		Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
   		AllowOverride All
   		Order allow,deny
   		allow from all
   		Require all granted
   	</Directory>
   
   	ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
   
   	ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
   	CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
   
   	Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf
   	SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/brookesy.dev-0001/fullchain.pem
   	SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/brookesy.dev-0001/privkey.pem
   	
   </VirtualHost>
   

8. Ensure your servers Laravel user has access to the storage directory - sudo chown -R user:group /var/www/html/iam/storage

9. You should be good to go!
