First, install npm dependencies with npm i && cd src && cd frontend && npm i && cd .. && cd ...

Backend and frontend development

• Run the server and the frontend with npm run server. Visit http://localhost:4321/admin to manage the games.

• Run (another) frontend-server only with npm run frontend so you can live edit the frontend code in src/frontend. This result is available at http://localhost:4322/admin.

• Compile a minified JavaScript version of the server, the client and the simulator by using npm run build. The output will be available in dist/.

• Execute the tests with npm run test.

Bot development

• Edit config.json to set your player name.

• Edit bot/bot.js so it returns an array of one to four bot function.

  • Run npm run training-browser to make your bot functions fight against themselves and see the game in your browser.

  • Run npm run training-export to make your bot functions fight against themselves and dump everything that happened in a *.gamelog file. A game server is not needed and the simulation is executed as fast as possible.

• Edit config.json then use npm run join-match to join a room as a player on another server.
