sock-tron

A network browser implementation of Tron. Play with your friends over the web!

The dependencies for this project are a few years old, so you must make sure you have the right dependencies installed. Run npm ci in the client directory to follow the package-lock.json specification. And pip install the dependencies and versions in requirements.txt from the server directory.

Configuration

Before you can run the project, make sure the configuration files exist. The example files provide sane defaults that work for localhost, so start by copying the example files:

cp server/settings.example.py server/settings.py
cp client/settings.example.json client/settings.json

All the configuration options in settings.py are described in comments. If you're configuring this project for a server, you will need to change "host" in settings.json to your IP address or host name.

Running the Project

First start the python server:

cd server
./server.py # python server.py

And start the client in a separate session:

cd client
npm run dev

Open up tron in your browser, and you're ready to play!
