cygni/paintbot

An alternative to Snakebot, inspired by Bomberman's paint mode

Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live.

Paintbot

A game of wits between programmers where they develop bots to compete against each other in painting a canvas in their bot's color. The webpage for the game can be viewed at https://paintbot.cygni.se/

Originally based on Cygni's Snakebot

This is the server and api repository, other parts:

• Paintbot webapp
• Paintbot Java Client

Want to create your own client?

If you want to create your own client, please take a look at Client info

Getting started with intellij

• Make sure you have enabled the gradle plugin in intellij
• When creating the project, be sure to import the build.gradle file, otherwise things go wrong

To do test-runs:

• Start up the server with

> ./gradlew clean build
> ./gradlew bootRun

• Start up the webapp as described in the README. You have to change some configuration for it to go towards your local server.

const location = { origin: "http://localhost" };

• Execute the main-method of one of the clients in the clients folder
• Check the console for a link to watch the finished game, it should be in the format of

http://localhost:3000/game/{gameId}

New Release

To create a new release using a git repo as the artefactory simply ensure the build.gradle file uses a local folder to "publish" the artifacts, which should be default. Then run ./gradlew api:publish, ./gradlew client:publish and ./gradlew client-util:publish. This should build the artifacts under releases/. This folder should then be copied into the paintbot-maven-repo projects and pushed to the main branch.

Infrastructure

In order to update the infrastructure please try to use the terraform scripts in 'terraform' folder

cd terraform
AWS_PROFILE=westbos terraform apply

Most of the AWS resources are in the terraform state some still needs to be imported.
