# External itch.io GameJam Voting System

This project is a standalone go program that can be used to manually manage voting for itch.io with no weighting algorithms, just averages.

## Setup

Create a `config.json` file with at least the following:

```json

{

  "Address": ":3000",

  "GameJam": "my-game-jam",

  "ClientID": "",

  "OAuthRedirect": "",

  "VotingEnabled": true,

  "VotingFinished": false

}

```

**Address** is the address + port to listen for HTTP connections on.

**GameJam** is the game jam's name, as derived from the jam's URL. e.g, "https://itch.io/jam/ebiten-game-jam" -> "ebiten-game-jam"

**ClientID** is the ClientID of the OAuth Application created under the developer's/host's itch.io Settings.

**OAuthRedirect** is the OAuth redirect URL. This should be the location where the jam voting is accessible from, but with "auth" appended. e.g, "https://kettek.net/jams/ebiten-jam" -> "https://kettek.net/jams/ebiten-jam/auth"

**VotingEnabled** allows voting to be done by users that have logged in.

**VotingFinished** prevents any further voting and shows the averaged results on the entries index.

## Running

You can either build and run the go application or just issue `go run .`. This will read the config.json file, set up needed databases, collect information of the jam, then start the server.
