# KANDIMAT
A Vue.js powered, progressive web voting application for upcoming internal elections of Bündnis90/Die Grünen. Kandimat is hosted as a service of netzbegruenung e.V.
## Issues
..are tracked @ https://git.netzbegruenung.de/NB-Public/kandimat/issues
## Calculation Model
The calculation model for voting has been defined by the German Federal Agency for Civic Education _(Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung)_. A good overview can be found in this PDF: [`resources/Rechenmodell des Wahl-O-Mat.pdf`](resources/Rechenmodell%20des%20Wahl-O-Mat.pdf).
## ⌨️ Development
This is a Vue.js progressive web application, developed with [`@vue/cli`](https://github.com/vuejs/vue-cli).
| Command | Description |
| ------- | ----------- |
| `npm install` | Installs dependencies |
| `npm run serve` | Serve with hot reload at localhost:8080 |
| `npm run build` | Build for production with minification |
| `npm run test:unit` | Run all unit tests |
| `npm run lint` | Runs `standard` over all `.js` and `.vue` files and fixes problems |
| `npm run svg` | Creates all SVG files used in the application |
| `npm run admin` | Creates `config.yml` for Netlify CMS admin UI |
### Working with GraphQl backend
As a connector to the backend, `apollo-vue` is used.
Queries are written as `gql` strings.
To have schema hints etc, there is a `.graphqlconfig` file which should help dedicated IDE plugins
to infer the GraphQl schema directly from the (running) backend
(see main project for more information on how a "running backend" is achieved).
For example, the Intellij JS GraphQL plugin will automatically ask to download the schema definition.
### Notes
* To keep the diff to the original euromat source as small as possible certain variables follow a naming convention
which may seem weird at first.
These include
* `party` (better description would be `person`)
## Props
This user app is based on source code of EUROMAT targeted at european elections.
