# Surprise countdown
This is a web application for revealing a surprise at a given time.
Two pages are served:
1. `/` - The index page polls the backend every second and displays the image
asset corresponding to the state of the surprise with a countdown if applicable.
2. `/set-surprise` - Select and POST the surprise to the backend (password protected).
The surprise can have the following states:
- `_null` - The surprise is not set.
- `_secret` - The surprise is set but not yet revealed.
- `<value>` - The surprise is set and revealed.
## Configuration
Environment variables:
- `SURPRISE_TITLE` - Page title
- `SURPRISE_STORE_FILE` - File name to store surprise value.
- `SURPRISE_SECRET` - Password for setting the surprise.
- `SURPRISE_ASSET_DIR` - Directory of image assets that corresponds to surprise
state/values. The set of possible surprise values are parsed from the basename
of the asset files. The `_null` and `_secret` states may be overridden.
- `SURPRISE_REVEAL_DATETIME` - Datetime for reveal.
