This morning I am powering through all of my 300+ projects in my projects folder, and triaging and doing any next actions that take next than 5 minutes.
One of the first things to do was to fix bushwhich, my old choose-your-own adventure game where I bike around my old neighbourhood, Bushwick, in Brooklyn. I had moved it off of the domain it was on and to https://richardlitt.github.io/bushwhich, but the assets weren’t working. I set my timer to go.
It took me ten minutes, 30 seconds to fix the problem; BASE_PATH wasn’t being used anywhere, and wasn’t set in the config. I removed all of the hardcoded paths, set base path to the domain, and grepped for all <a href="/"> and changed them to <a href="">. Upload, refresh, and it’s working now. I’ve changed the link on my project on burntfen.com, too.
Not a bad amount of time to end a project. Ricardo asked me to blog about it, so here I am.
On to the next thing.
