Broadcasting noise across the internet since 1972 - NoiseBox allows anyone to play sound clips through another computer...

Primary LanguageJavaScript

#noise-box

Allow anyone to start their own noise box 'room', with 'hosts' that'll play the noise, and 'clients' that can select tracks, which will then be played via their specific host(s).

Once a client logs in to the room, they see a list of tracks, can preview or broadcast a clip, that'll then get queued and played on the host machine. The noise will be played via the html5 audio api.

###Requirements

  • Node v0.8+
  • npm

###Installation

git clone git@github.com:GuntLondon/noise-box.git
cd noise-box/src
npm install

A config.js file also needs to be present in the src folder. There is a sample version called config.js.sample.

###sfx

Create (or symlink) a directory in /src/public and call it 'sfx' - place mp3 files in here to have them listed.

###less

To update the styles, make changes to the style.less file

To recompile the CSS file, first install less:

npm install less

Then from the src directory, run the following command:

./node_modules/less/bin/lessc public/less/style.less public/css/style.css -x

###Usage

Fire up the noise box server by switching to the src directory and running node server.js

Browse to http://localhost:7001

Enjoy!
