DevWars Live

The editor and live streaming portion of DevWars.

Getting Started

Requirements

• NodeJS v14.15+

Setup

This repository holds two projects (client/server). For this reason you should never use npm in the root directory. Instead manage dependencies and npm script independently inside of each respective directory (client/server).

• Run npm install in both the client and server directory to install dependencies.
• Make a copy of .env.example in both the client and server directory and configure your environment variables to your liking.
• Run npm run dev in both the client and server directory.

Mocking DevWars API in Development

• Remove the DEVWARS_API_TOKEN environment key on the server side.

You can then set a cookie in your browser with the key token and one of the following values ADMIN, MODERATOR, USER to authenticate.

Production

• Run npm run build in both the client and server directory.
• Configure your web server to serve the client/dist directory.
• Reroute /admin and /play to client/dist/index.html to handle SPA routes.
• Run node server/dist/index.js and preferably proxy it through a web server.

NOTE: The server does not use the .env in production!
