The first issue is an invalid option to the MySQL connector in the form of the table prefix. It instead gets set as a private prop on the storage class and then removed from the options object. The second and more important issue is that the field to store the duplication check data ended up being too small too quickly, causing it to quickly fail to write a full JSON string and leading to an error while retrieving the poll. An `ALTER` statement during init is used to make sure the datatype is now a `MEDIUMTEXT`. With 16MB it should fill up way less quickly than previously. |

Poll.horse
Simple polling service for public polls
With strawpoll being somewhat very broken I decided to implement my own. Let's go!
What is this
If you have never used strawpoll, in short this is a website to easily make small polls without a fuss.
A live version is available here. This version is always based on the current master branch and release tags.
You want more cutting edge? Under dev.poll.horse you can find the most recent builds based on the current commit of the dev branch. New features can be tested here but the integrity of the database is not guaranteed and may be occasionally wiped.
API
This service offers an API to create and get the status of polls. The API Docs can be found here.
Running your own instance of Poll.Horse
Standalone
- Make sure you have Node installed.
- Download the latest release source code from the releases page;
- Extract the zip file anywhere
- Open a shell in in the directory you just extracted to and run

npm start - List all available options with
npm start -- --helpor use shell options withnpm start -- <options>
Docker
