AUBG Survival Game

This is a repository for AUBG Survival Game. This project aims to completely rewrite the web application using modern full stack technologies. In the future I plan to write React Native applications using this codebase. The client is hosted on Github Pages, using gh-pages branch. The server is hosted on Heroku.

Technology Stack

NodeJS + Express.js

React + Redux

MongoDB

Installation

git clone https://github.com/ilyanoskov/aubgsurvival

cd aubgsurvival/client

npm install

cd aubgsurvival/backend

npm install

Development

Setup

To run this application locally you will need:

• a running mongoDB instance (I run mine at http://localhost:27017/aubsurvival)
• environment variables:

in .env file in frontend folder:

REACT_APP_SERVER="localhost:3001"

in .env file in backend folder:

MONGODB_URI="http://localhost:27017/aubsurvival"
APP_SECRET="yourappsecret"

Running the application

Run nodemon backend/server.js and then do npm start in client

Deployment

npm install -g gh-pages
obtain the administrator rights from me and the just do npm run deploy in both client and backend folders
