Its a chat room ala WhatsApp (simplified very much). I build it for fun and learning purposes.
This has no data persistence, no database, the server only gets the messages and broacast them to the clients, the users data is a JSON file and the management of who is online is an array.
It has two parts :
Its in the folder vue-chat-front for development:
cd vue-chat-front
npm install
npm run serve
For production:
cd vue-chat-front
npm run build
The ports and domains are configurable via .env.development y .env.production.
Use this software besides from Vue itself:
- For generate the audio notifications tonejs.github.io
- Vuex vuex
- Websocket client socket.io - client
No data persistence, no database, the server only gets the messages and broacast them to the clients.
User management is a simple class: User controller
Users data (is a JSON file): Users
What id does?:
- Creates a http server with a simple API end point for the login.
- All the rest of get request are redirected to 'vue-chat-front/dist', the front side.
