Future Updates

The UI is very simple at the moment

I would like to upgrade it to a more modern look with React or another front-end framework Phaser also handles the front end so the challenge is figuring out how to integrate it See: Documentation/future.MD

Running/Install

1 Get Redis

You'll need an instance of Redis on the server/local machine 
If you have docker installed on your system, then the easiest way to run the program would be to start the start.sh script

With that method getting Redis separately won't be required

2 install modules

npm install

3 install concurrently globally

npm install -g concurrently

4 add .env

This should be in the root of the repo

CLIENT_PORT

This refers to the port used to host the main client UI/Website It is used by the backend to host the express service

CLIENT_URL

This is the url/domain the client uses to access the main client

SOCKET_IO_PORT

This is the port used to host the socket.io service, used by the backend

SOCKET_IO_URL

This is the url/domain the client uses to access the socket.io service

Example

CLIENT_PORT=8090
SOCKET_IO_PORT=7500
CLIENT_URL=http://localhost:8090
SOCKET_IO_URL=http://localhost:7500

You can change the .env file to better match your system

5 run script

run ./start.sh
Note: You can use the second line instead if you using a non docker version of Redis

6 Accessing

Main website is hosted on localhost:8090, unless you change the .env variables#
