This is FlightGear μ (mju) aka mpmap.js

A Multiplayer Map for FlightGear based on node.js

Requirements

• nodejs >= 6.0
• permission to perform DNS lookup
• permission to do outbound connects (telnet to mpserverXX on port 5001)

Installation

get software

git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/flightgear/mpmap.js flightgear-mpmap.js

enter into the directory

cd flightgear-mpmap.js

install dependencies

npm install

run

npm start

This will start the server on localhost, port 8080 and you should see the multiplayer map at http://localhost:8080/

don't like 8080? Use another port like this

app_port=4711 npm start

Running within docker

If you have docker and docker-compose installed, simply type

docker-compose up --build

and you are ready. Note: this exposes the app at port http://localhost:8086/ There are also ready to use docker images at https://hub.docker.com/r/flightgear/mpmap.js/. Run

docker run -p 8080:8080 flightgear/mpmap.js

to have your own private multiplayer map at localhost:8080
