This repository consists of the code for a Flask app running a game based on Ea Ea's game *Star, as well as a builder for game boards, based on the Centroidal Voronoi Tesselation.
This is not an officially supported Google project.
Before using, you'll need the dependencies. Running source activate-venv.sh will create a virtualenv and install the package for you.
The code in the builder directory creates the actual game boards.
After using source activate-venv.sh to create the virtualenv and install the package, use vorobuilder [OPTIONS] filename to generate boards usable for flask addboard below. The example below uses board.json as the filename.
The code in the web directory uses the Flask CLI.
source activate-venv.sh
flask initdb # Creates the database, wiping out anything previously there.
flask addboard "--name=My board" board.json
flask runws # Runs the WebSocket and HTTP server.
This is very much a work-in-progress. In particular:
- The login/account system is currently limited to the "null" account system which has (by design) no security.
- The rules are unexplained.
- The protocol is incredibly flimsy, and probably vulnerable to cross-site hijacking.
