Basic Pong HTML and JavaScript Game

Basic Pong HTML and JavaScript Game

This is a basic implementation of the Atari Pong game, but it's missing a few things intentionally and they're left as further exploration for the reader.

Further Exploration

  • Score
  • When a ball goes past a paddle, the other player should score a point. Use context.fillText() to display the score to the screen

ruby bundler: Sorry, you can't use byebug without Readline

Preamble

On OS/X Sierra, after recently running a brew update I started receiving the error message Sorry, you can't use byebug without Readline when trying to run some rake tasks in my ruby project folder. I observed this in projects and gems that include byebug or pry in their Gemfile or gem.spec. I've found in my googling that many begin encountering this error message after running a brew update but there are other triggering conditions as well.

>> rake aws:show_config
WARN: Unresolved specs during Gem::Specification.reset:

Please report a bug if this causes problems.
 Sorry, you can't use byebug without Readline. To solve this, you need to

Setting up Sinatra Flash

Setting Up Sinatra Flash

Sinatra Flash is an awesome gem that allows you to pop up little messages alerting your users of important things, via some simple code in your server.rb file. This is very useful for things like displaying error messages if the user has filled out a form wrong, or displaying "success" messages if the user did something successfully like sign in, sign out, or submit a form.

This also gives you a great chance to implement Foundation's beautiful alerts. Here's how to set it up!

  1. Install the gem by typing gem install sinatra-flash in your terminal.
  2. Require the gem in the top of your server.rb file: require 'sinatra/flash'

Node.js TCP client and server example
/*
In the node.js intro tutorial (http://nodejs.org/), they show a basic tcp
server, but for some reason omit a client connecting to it. I added an
example at the bottom.
Save the following server in example.js:

=begin
install Sinatra: gem install sinatra
install Shotgun: gem install shotgun (this auto-reloads sinatra on every http request - which means every time you make a change in your code you don't have to stop then start sinatra)
To just run your code using Sinatra: ruby name-of-file.rb
To run your code using Shotgun (which is just Sinatra but with ability to auto-reload when changes are made to files): shotgun name-of-file.rb
The following examples are run using Shotgun and the URL is: http://127.0.0.1:9393/
