Artificial Intelligence Challenge - scala game server

Primary LanguageJavaScriptMIT LicenseMIT

Four legendary heroes were fighting for the land of Vindinium

Making their way in the dangerous woods

Slashing goblins and stealing gold mines

And looking for a tavern where to drink their gold

Installation

Feel free to install a local instance for your private tournaments. You need sbt, a MongoDB instance running, and a Unix machine (only Linux has been tested, tho).

git clone git://github.com/ornicar/vindinium
cd vindinium
cd client
./build.sh
cd ..
sbt compile
sbt run

Vindinium is now running on http://localhost:9000.

Optional reverse proxy

Here's an exemple of nginx configuration:

server {
 listen 80;
 server_name my-vindinium.org;

  location / {
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_read_timeout 24h;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_pass  http://127.0.0.1:9000/;
  }
}

Developing on the Client Side stack

while the Server runs with a sbt run, you can go in another terminal in the client/ folder and:

  • Install once the dependencies with npm install (This requires nodejs to be installed)
  • Be sure to have grunt installed with npm install -g grunt-cli
  • Use grunt to compile client sources and watch for client source changes.
