Development

Environment

Install rustup to manage the Rust toolchain and nvm to manage the JavaScript toolchain, following instructions on their respective pages.

Install and activate our expected version of npm using nvm, then install the Yarn package manager:

nvm install
nvm use
npm install -g yarn@^1

Run Server

You can start the backend and frontend servers together using our yarn start script. You'll probably want to open the frontend in your browser at http://localhost:3000.

yarn start

Initially, this will load a test fixture data set only intended for development.

Import Data

If you want to use the real data set, you'll need to import it.

(Optional) You may want to start by downloading archived copies of {runs,users,games}.jsonl.gz from https://archive.org/download/speedrun.com-2020-02-01, and putting them in data/api, to reduce the amount you load through the API (which can take a long time).

Download any new data by running:

cargo run api download

This can take a long time (potentially a full day if you're starting from scratch). This won't include changes or deletions of existing items, we assume they're unchanged. If you want to be sure that every record is up to date, you need to delete the downloaded data and start from scratch.

Validate and convert the downloaded API data into our internal format by running:

cargo run api import

Any records that don't match our expected format (missing now-required fields, inconsistent timing methods, or niche options we don't support) will be discarded, so our leaderboards might not match speedrun.com (whose software robustly accomidates old data of varied shapes).

Restart the server to load the new data.

Installation

cargo install speedruns to install or update speedruns.

npm install --global speedruns to install or update speedruns-frontened.

Crate structure

The speedruns interface probably won't be stable until 1.0.0. This is being developed as a service first, a library second.

::utils (crate: speedruns_utils)

Grab bag of shared code.

::models (crate: speedruns_models) depends on utils

  • ::model The data types for our speedrun model.
  • ::validation Single-record validation logic.
  • ::integrity Inter-record integrity validation logic. Meant for use by database but not coupled to it.
  • ::aggregations Functions for aggregating collections of records.
    • ::leaderboard(Run[]) -> Leaderboard { game, category, level?, {...}[] }
    • ::progression(Run[]) -> Progression { game, category, level?, {...}[] }

::database (crate: speedruns_database) depends on model, utils

  • ::database Our in-memory "database"'s core data model.

::juniper (crate: speedruns_juniper) depends on database, model, utils

  • ::juniper A Juniper GraphQL model on top of our database.
  • ::cli The HTTP server and CLI implementation.

::api (crate: speedruns_api) depends on model, utils

  • ::types API response data types.
  • ::normalize Converting API data to our model.
  • ::cli The downloader and CLI implementation.

::cli (crate: speedruns_cli) depends on api, database, juniper, model, utils

  • ::main() Implementation of the binary target CLI.
