Basically, the project was a modular game where bots compete against each other in simple team matches. Each team developed a server (this repo), a Game Master (a client handling game logic), and Agents (bots playing the game).
Then a tournament would be played to tell which team won. There were rounds where each team would provide their modules and if it handled games correctly, points scored by teams of bots would be summed up to determine the ultimate winner.
Pretty complicated.
- Communication with other modules over TCP
- Logs (winston)
- colorful in tty (chalk)
- as json in log file
- Tests (mocha)
- Implemented as a Finite State Machine
- Probably extendable to support other usecases
npm install- install dependencies.npm test- run tests.npm start- launch the server.npm run debug- launch the server in debug mode.- Extra:
ncat localhost <port>- launch dumb netcat client.
agentPort- port used by players.masterPort- port used by GameMaster.maxConnections- max simultaneous agent connections.
