COTD: Cat of the Day

PHP web application using JQuery Mobile that publishes a list of ordered items. Each item has an image and trivia.

Item lists are organised as themes. The application looks for an environment variable known as SELECTOR to set the theme. The default theme is SELECTOR="pets" using images supplied by my work colleagues. Other themes include "cats" and "cities". By default, item image content is sourced from the local data directory. If the environment variable SERVICE is set, the application will look for REST service at the IP address for item meta data. MySQL database meta data is also supported, look at include/selector.php for necessary settings.

Usage

The application is used to support the OpenShift MiniLabs series. Look here for example usage of this application.

Configuration

Lists can be customed by editing the include/selector.php to point to set the theme of interest. Edit the data/$theme.php file populate the data for that $theme. Add images to the data/images/$theme subdirectory with names matching list items.

Logging

Whenever the user rates an item, an entry is written to the php log. These entries can be filtered and then used to test hypotheses regarding user engagement. An example entry is as follows:

[Sun Sep 25 09:14:40.037909 2016] [:error] [pid 15] [client 172.17.0.1:46572] <COTD> { "user" : "e299ra835usa88pp19sr25ipg6", items" : [ {"adelaide" : "1"}, {"canberra" : "3"}, ] , "client_ip" : "172.17.0.1",  "sydney_time" : "2016:09:25 19:14:40",  } </COTD>, referer: http://localhost:8080/item.php?nextpage=canberra
