#Do good code, make cool shit.
#How to Run Backend You will need to install maven. Once that's done you can run the backend by
mvn install
mvn exec:java
Open a new shell and cd editor-client
and edit start.sh
to edit the port numbers for your setup. The variables are
FRONTEND_SERVER_PORT
: The port to reach the frontend atSERVER_HOST
: The host name of the machine you are running the backend server on. (localhost sufficies but you can have external connections if you put in a reachable host name or your IP).SERVER_TCP_PORT
: Port that the backend server listens to TCP connections on.SERVER_WS_PORT
: Port that the backend server listens to Websocket connections on.
You probably only need to edit SERVER_HOST
to make it work. Then run
npm install
./start.sh
Go to the browser and go to <HOSTNAME>:8080
to see the editor!
