Windsurf statistics tracking

This project is a web interface to easily save windsurf session data. It was originally built to suit my own needs, using node.js, express, mysql and ejs. But it has evolved into a full stack web app using node.js, express, mongodb and vue.js combined with vuetify for the front-end.

If you find a bug or have a feature request, please create an issue!

What it does

It currently stores the following values in a databse on a per user basis:

• Date
• Spot
• Gear used (sail & board)
• Conditions (windspeed, gust, direction and temperature)
• Rating
• Note

Using the spot name, it scrapes the windspeed, gust, direction and temperature from winfinder, so you don't have to fill those in yourself. (only works if input is on same day as the windsurf session, and the selected spot is a windfinder superforecast enabled spot. If not you need to fill in those variables yourself).

Usage

All the things you need to run this app.

Prerequisites

• node.js & npm
• MongoDb server
• A webserver with reverse proxy capability

Installation development

Download or clone this repository using:

git clone https://github.com/jeroentvb/windsurf-stats.git
cd windsurf-stats

Server

Rename .env.example in the server folder to .env and set the correct password. You can change the port it will run on if you want as well.
Install the required dependencies and run the server in developement mode

cd server
npm install
npm run watch

Client

Rename .env.example in the client folder to .env. Make sure to change the port of VUE_APP_API_URL if you changed it for the server.
Install the required dependencies and run the client in development mode.

cd ../client
npm install
npm run serve

The application should now be set up, and ready for use in development. Accessible on localhost:8080

Installation production

Download or clone this repository using:

git clone https://github.com/jeroentvb/windsurf-stats.git
cd windsurf-stats

Server

Rename .env.example in the server folder to .env and set the correct password. You can change the port it will run on if you want as well.
Install the required dependencies and build the server

cd server
npm install
npm run build

Copy the contents of the dist folder to your server and run the following commands:

npm install

# Set the node enviroment to production and run the server using:
node index.js

Set up a reverse proxy, so domain.extension/api directs traffic to back end server. The client should be hosted on domain.extension. This prevents cors errors.

Client

Rename .env.example in the client folder to .env and set the VUE_APP_API_URL to url of your backend server for which you just set up a reverse proxy (in this case domain.extension/api).
Install the required dependencies and build the front-end

cd ../client
npm install
npm run build

Copy the contents of the dist folder to the root of your web server, so it can be serverd on domain.extension.

The application should now be set up, and ready for use in production.
