This 2048 game is a fork from Gabriele Cirulli's GitHub Repository.

We are utilizing PGME to automate the build-process and make it more robust and easy to change.

This fork was originally made without the capabilities of PGME in mind and so the rewrite of this app does not use all of it's power. (E.g.: We use a delay (setTimeout) to init this app, otherwise we would have had to rewrite way more stuff..)

The dist folder contains all files for each platform. All necessary information is stored in two files, one JavaScript- and one CSS file.

There is NOT one JavaScript file for all portals. Each portal has it's own JavaScript- and CSS file.

• Create a folder in the dist directory (best named after the portal)
• Create a config file in src/config/
  • It should conform to the name of the portal folder in the dist directory
  • You should copy, edit and rename an existing configuration file
  • The values should be self-explanatory
• Create a new language file in src/text or use an existing one
  • It should conform either to the 2-letter country code, or to something like en-netmums.com.js e.g. if you want to have a separate language file for netmums.com
• Edit the buildfile which defaults to pgmefile.js

The buildfile is just a JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) file. It consists of X jobs. Each job defines something that has to happen when a build is triggered.

Because everything is combined in one JavaScript- and one CSS file, you need to create two jobs for the new platform.

{
  "id": "js",
  "comment": "aufeminin.com language and config",
  "filepath": "./dist/aufeminin.com/js/app.js",
  "contents": [
    "./_tmp_app.js",
    "./src/_initLanguage_Start.js",
    "./src/text/fr.js",
    "./src/_initLanguage_End.js",
    "./src/_initConfig_Start.js",
    "./src/config/aufeminin.com.js",
    "./src/_initConfig_End.js"
  ],
},
{
  "id": "js",
  "filepath": "./_tmp_portal.scss",
  "contents": [
    "./src/style/__theme-gofeminin.scss",
    "./_tmp_generic.scss"
  ],
  "callbacks": [
    {
      "command": "sass",
      "args": "-q ./_tmp_portal.scss:./dist/aufeminin.com/style/main.css"
    },
    {
      "comment": "Copies shared files",
      "command": "cp",
      "args": "-pr ./src/share/* ./dist/aufeminin.com/"
    }
  ]
}

There are two jobs which define how to compile a new distribution. Don't get scared; it's pretty easy, once you get used to it.

The first job tells PGME to take the generic _tmp_app.js (which consists of all shared functions and libraries) and prepend it to all the other platform specific stuff. It's pretty much like templating.

{
  "id": "js",
  "comment": "aufeminin.com language and config",
  "filepath": "./dist/aufeminin.com/js/app.js",
  "contents": [
    "./_tmp_app.js",
    "./src/_initLanguage_Start.js",
    "./src/text/fr.js",
    "./src/_initLanguage_End.js",
    "./src/_initConfig_Start.js",
    "./src/config/aufeminin.com.js",
    "./src/_initConfig_End.js"
  ]
}

The src/_initLanguage_Start.js is just a template which needs to be included before the language definition file src/text/fr.js.

Edit the language by changing the value of 'src/text/fr.js' to a language of your choice.

You also need to change the value of src/config/aufeminin.com.js to the matching config file you created earlier.

The second job does a shitload of stuff for us, but even this is dead simple. Let's jump right into it.

{
  "id": "js",
  "filepath": "./_tmp_portal.scss",
  "contents": [
    "./src/style/__theme-gofeminin.scss",
    "./_tmp_generic.scss"
  ],
  "callbacks": [
    {
      "command": "sass",
      "args": "-q ./_tmp_portal.scss:./dist/aufeminin.com/style/main.css"
    },
    {
      "comment": "Copies shared files",
      "command": "cp",
      "args": "-pr ./src/share/* ./dist/aufeminin.com/"
    }
  ]
}

It says, take the src/style/__theme-gofeminin.scss SASS file and prepend it to the generic _tmp_generic.scss SASS file (which has been created earlier, automatically).

This is just so the first callback of this job has the right theme variable available and can compile the temporary SASS file _tmp_portal.scss to a CSS file in dist/aufeminin.com/style/main.css

The second callback just copies all files from our shared directory to the newly created distribution (portal) directory (dist/aufeminin.com/)

• Edit the theme variable
  • Probably you need to create a new theme-variable file for that, which should also go into src/style/__theme-nameOfNewPortal.scss
• Currently there is only one SASS file which posssibly needs to be edited too, if you happen to create a new look for a new portal.

The SASS file was just marginally edited by me and could also be split up into several files, e.g. one for each theme/platform.

Once you edited the pgmefile.js, you should compile with

pgme -n
