SGCT-Networked-Application

A basic template to create an SGCT application that opens a WebSocket to listen to input coming through a single connection.

To clone this repository, don't forget to recurse submodules: git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/alexanderbock/SGCT-Networked-Application.git or the dependent libraries will not work correctly.

Getting started

1. Execute npm install in the webserver folder
2. Compile the application
3. Start the web server with node server.js in the webserver folder
4. Start the application
5. Connect from a second device

In the current version, it is necessary to start the server before starting the application, as the application will only try to connect once at startup.

Configurations

Currently, the server and application addresses are encoded in several places that all have to be changed:

1. webserver/server.js has a port and gameAddress that have to point at the machine that is running the application.
2. The application's src/main.cpp creates a WebSocketHandler, whose constructor requires the IP address and port of the webserver.
3. The webserver/public/script.js sets a serverAddress variable that has to point to the game server location.
