Simple Table Reservation

A minimalistic table reservation system built with Svelte and SvelteKit. This app allows users to reserve seats at tables in a simple, trust-based environment—ideal for small groups or events where authentication isn't needed.

Note: Cross-origin request checks are currently disabled for easier development and usage across environments.

Features

• Maintainer-defined table and seat setup
• Users can reserve seats by name
• Reserved seats are locked and cannot be taken again
• Names will be displayed publicly

Setup Instructions

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/W4hr/simple-table-reservation.git
cd simple-table-reservation

2. Install Dependencies

npm install

3. Initialize the Database

The maintainer must define the table/seat structure manually.

• In seat.js, edit the list to reflect your table and seat layout.

  • The length of the list = number of tables
  • Each number in the list = number of seats at that table
  • Example: [4, 6, 2] creates 3 tables with 4, 6, and 2 seats respectively

Then run:

node seat.js

4. Set Environment Variable

Create a .env file in the project root and add the following line:

NODE_ENV=development

This ensures the app runs in development mode when using node.

5. Run the App Locally

npm run dev

Then open http://localhost:5173 in your browser.

Docker Deployment

You can also deploy the app using Docker:

1. Build the Docker image:

   docker build -t simple-table-reservation .

2. Run the container with your desired table configuration:

   docker run -p 3000:3000 \
      -e TABLE_LIST='[6,8,4,10]' \
      -v /path/to/your/database.db:/app/data/database.db \
      simple-table-reservation

   This example sets up four tables with 6, 8, 4, and 10 seats respectively.
   To start with a fresh database, simply omit the volume flag:

   docker run -p 3000:3000 -e TABLE_LIST='[6,8,4,10]' simple-table-reservation

3. Access the app at http://localhost:3000.

Note: The TABLE_LIST environment variable should be a JSON array representing your table layout.

Admin Tasks

The adminTasks.js script provides command-line tools for managing the reservation system's database directly. These tasks are useful for administrative actions like clearing reservations or adjusting table setups without interacting with the UI or re-initializing the entire database.

Base Command:

node ./src/lib/adminTasks.js <functionName> [arguments...]

If no function name is provided or if the function name is not recognized, the script will display a list of available functions.

Available Functions:

• unreserveSeat <seat_id>: Clears the reservation for a specific seat.
  • Example: node ./src/lib/adminTasks.js unreserveSeat 15
• unreserveSeats: Clears all reservations from all seats.
  • Example: node ./src/lib/adminTasks.js unreserveSeats
• unreserveName <name>: Clears all reservations made under a specific name.
  • Example: node ./src/lib/adminTasks.js unreserveName "John Doe"
• addTable <seat_count>: Adds a new table with the specified number of seats. Seats will have a default color of "gray".
  • Example: node ./src/lib/adminTasks.js addTable 8
• deleteTable <table_id>: Deletes a table and all its associated seats.
  • Example: node ./src/lib/adminTasks.js deleteTable 3
• deleteSeat <seat_id>: Deletes a specific seat.
  • Example: node ./src/lib/adminTasks.js deleteSeat 216
• clearTables: Deletes all seats and all tables from the database. Use with caution as this will empty your entire seating arrangement.
  • Example: node ./src/lib/adminTasks.js clearTables

Example Usage:

To delete seat with ID 216:

node ./src/lib/adminTasks.js deleteSeat 216

To unreserve all seats currently reserved by "Jane Doe":

node ./src/lib/adminTasks.js unreserveName "Jane Doe"

---

💡 Running admin tasks inside Docker:
You can execute adminTasks.js inside the running container using Docker exec:

docker exec -it <container_name_or_id> node adminTasks.js <functionName> [arguments...]

For example, to unreserve seat with ID 216:

docker exec -it <container_name_or_id> node adminTasks.js unreserveSeat 216
