## Installation Instructions

## Set up Cloud Services

Clone the code into a folder on your machine then set up the following cloud services:

- Firebase: go to firebase and create a new project and enable Firestore, Database, Messaging, Storage, Authentication (don't forget to allow google authentication) and enable hosting, visit [Firebase Documentation (google.com)](https://firebase.google.com/docs) for detailed informations
- Algolia: go to algolia website and set up a new project and create an app, and create an index, check out [Algolia Documentation](https://www.algolia.com/doc/) for detailed informations
- Google Cloud Speech to Text: after you have created your firebase app, you will find it in your google cloud platform, go to your console and add speech to text functionality, check out [Speech-to-Text AI: speech recognition and transcription | Google Cloud](https://cloud.google.com/speech-to-text?hl=en) for detailed informations
- Daily WebRTC: set up a daily api account for call services and create an app, visit [Daily | API documentation](https://docs.daily.co/) for more information

## Set up your configuration and API keys

after you set up your cloud services, you will be able to access their service account files and API keys from their console, and you want to add them in these files, don't forget to rename them and remove "Sample" or "\_sample" from these files names so basically when you add your keys to "configKeysSample.js" you rename it to "configKeys.js":

- "src/configKeysSample.js":  in this folder put your firebase configuration object and your algolia app key, public key and index name, and for the callAPI variable, this is the web server endpoint of your call service, which is run by calling the command "node /backend/callServer.js", when run locally, set it to "http://localhost:7000".
- "/public/firebase-messaging-sw-sample.js":  this is your service account that sets up notification with firebase messaging, put your firabase configuration object here.
- "/backend/serviceAccountKeySample.json": grab your firebase service account from your console and put it here
- "/backend/audio_transcript_sample.json": grab your google cloud service account from your console and put it over here.
- "/backend/configKeysSample.js": put your daily admin API key, your firebase database URL, your algolia app key admin key and index, your google cloud storage bucket link and your firebase storage bucket (they're the same).

## Building and Running your App

Install all your JS dependencies by running the following command on the root folder and on "/backend" folder, your folder contains your frontend React app, and your backend contains your server side services that interact with your cloud services:

```posh
npm install
```

After you installed all your dependencies for the frontend and backend, navigate to "/backend" folder and run this command to run your server worker:

```posh
node index
```

This worker contains all your server side services that interact between your app and your cloud services in real time, it has functionalities like setting the online status of users, deleting users, handling media upload errors and more.

After that run this command to run you app's web call server

```posh
node callServer
```

This web server is an API endpoint that allows your frontend app to send requests to create and delete Call rooms, this server will run locally on "http://localhost:7000" so update your callAPI variable on "src/configKeys.js" accordingly

After setting up your backend, go to your firebase console, navigate to your firestore database, and create a collection "version" and create a document inside it "version" and give it a field called "version" which has a number value (not a string !!) give it any number and each time you update and deploy your frontend app with firebase hosting, increment this number to update the code on the browser of all your clients, you can also run the "updateAppVersion" function on the Test class in the backend "backend/Test".

After that run your frontend code locally for testing and developping by calling this command

```posh
npm run start
```

After you finished development, build your frontend for production by calling

```posh
npm run build
```

Your production code will be on "/build" folder

## Set up Welcome Users & Admin Users

You can set any user as a welcome user, welcome user will send welcoming messages to any new user signing up for the first time in your app, you can do that by grabing your user ID and setting him as a welcome user by calling this Test function, pass the user ID and a boolean to either make him a welcome user or not

```javascript
const test = new Test();
test.updateWelcomeUser(userID, isWelcomeChat);
```

You can set any user as an admin user, admin users have the ability to delete any public room, they may delete public rooms that contain NSFW content or empty rooms, you can do that by grabing your user ID and setting him as an admin user by calling this Test function, pass the user ID and a boolean to either make him an admin user or not

```javascript
const test = new Test();
test.updateAdminUser(userID, isAdmin);
```

## Deploying your App

In order to make your app available on the internet, you have to deploy the backend and frontend.

For the backend you can use any service you want like Heroku or Railway, just make sure that you're running two servers with the commands I provided for you, one runs the worker service and the other runs the call web service, your call web service is gonna be accessed by an endpoint URL which will be provided by your server hosting service so update your callAPI variable on "src/configKeys.js" accordingly

```posh
node index
```

```posh
node callServer
```

For the frontend you can setup firebase hosting, make sure that the deploy folder is "public" and rewrite all URLs to "index.html", and don't overwrite "index.html" , and every time you deploy a new version of your frontend, increment the version field on the version document of the version collection that you created, you can do that either manually or by calling "updateAppVersion" function on your Test class on your backend folder, and keep the same configuration that I put on firebase.json

## Have Fun Now 🚀💥🎉🤩
