Neologia Server

WIP

Directory structure

• connection/: handles websocket connections and raw messages, sends parsed messages to dispatcher
• dispatcher: receives parsed messsages and dispatches commands to entities in game/ or account/
• game/: handles game logic
• account/: handles user authentication
• store/: handles persisted server data (currently is a in-memory mock db)

API Protocol

Neologia uses Websockets as the underlying transfer protocol.

On top of that we use our own micro-protocol.

Client Messages

Client messages are JSONs conforming to the following schema (check docs/mock-requests):

{
  requestId: number,
  command: {
    name: string,
    payload: any
  }
}

Server Messages

Now, for the server sent messages, we have:

{
  requestId: number, // When message is a response, same as client's requestId, otherwise null
  event: {
    name: string,
    payload: any
  }
}
