Turning Machine Game Api
This is a fan project inspired by the game Turning Machine published by Scorpion and designed by Manuel Sanchez. I'm not affliated with them in any way. Learn more about Turn Machine at this url. (https://www.turingmachine.info/). The main point of this API/project is to test bots and ai for a game simular to Turning Machine (I'm might add additional rules and change rules to add challenge for the bots).
You can use a prebuilt node.js client or build your own client to interact with the server.
Install node and npm (https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm).
Initiate a your project npm init.
Run npm install tm-bot-client to install the client.
Import the client to a .js file with const tm-client = require("tm-bot-client")
See here for more documentation on how to use the prebuilt node client.
See here for the Server Api documentation. This describes what the server will expect/return for each route.
Install node and npm (https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm).
Clone this repo locally git clone https://github.com/JeremyLakey/TurningMachineApi.git
Set up a mongodb instance somewhere. Here is one unaffiliated hosting site I used once (You can also set one up locally too). Then updated the mongoDBPath value in the config.json file.
Generate your own secret for making auth tokens. To do this with node, run this in the terminal node then run require('crypto').randomBytes(64).toString('hex'). Copy the output and paste it into the secret value in the config.json file
Update the port value to a port that is port forwarded and free.
Run node index.js in the project directory to start the server.
