CAM.IO is an Event promotion tool. The aim of CAM.IO is to allow event organizers to post events, with incentives for promoters who get the highest number of clicks on their unique URL.

• Organizers: CAM.IO makes it easy to gamify the event promotion process. We are your connection to the social influencers, who will help make your event a success.
• Promoters: Discover events that your audience will care about, and win big rewards just by leveraging your network.

Installation

The best way to get started developing on CAM.IO is to clone a copy of our repo and from the root of the directory run:

npm install

To run the code locally you need to run Mongod:

mongod

You will also need a localserver on port 8080. You can launch the local server with:

Grunt

Prerequisites

You will need to have API keys from Eventbrite, [StormPath] (https://api.stormpath.com/login) and from Bitly.

• StormPath API keys are stored in root/apiKey.properties.
• Eventbrite API keys are stored in root/src/config/eventbrite.js (if you want to create users authentication through eventbrite) and in root/src/client/components/CreatEvent.js as token in the request to eventbrite in the serach and serachID methods.
• Bityl API keys are stored in root/src/client/components/EventDetails.js (they are called ACCESS_TOKEN are are used in several methods within this file)

Evenbrite is our event host integration and the will serve CRUD for events. Stormpath is our user database and authentication. Bitly is our integration for referral tracking and creating event related rewards and promotions.
