snakebot

A multi player, server based snake game for computer bots as players

Clients connect via a websocket through which events and commands are sent bidirectionally. Several client implementations exist:

• Java
• .NET
• JavaScript
• C++
• Rust
• ClojureScript
• Go

To clean and build:

> ./gradlew clean build

To run server locally:

> ./gradlew bootRun

To run server locally with increased memory:

> export JAVA_OPTS="-Xmx4096m" && ./gradlew bootRun

To run packaged server with overridden setting for game link:

> ./gradlew clean bootRepackage
> java -Xmx4096m -Dsnakebot.view.url=http://<your-ip>:8090/#/viewgame/ -jar app/build/libs/snakebot-app-0.1.18.jar

To generate Spring Boot self contained artifact:

> ./gradlew clean bootRepackage

If you change the client code/api and want to test locally, you need to publish your new snapshot locally before the code in the snake clients project can see your changes:

> ./gradlew publishToMavenLocal

To test production-like environment locally

Start ElasticSearch:

> docker run -d -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 -v ~/tmp/es-config:/usr/share/elasticsearch/config -v ~/tmp/es-data:/usr/share/elasticsearch/data --name=es elasticsearch:2.4 -Des.network.host=0.0.0.0

Start Kibana:

> docker run --name kibana --link es:elasticsearch -p 5601:5601 kibana

Update local host file:

> sudo echo "127.0.0.1    elasticsearch" >> /etc/hosts

Start the application from your IDE with production profile:

-Dspring.profiles.active=production

Create the Elasticsearch indexes by following these instructions
