This a rust application is the http-based web api backend for twowaiyo, using a simple REST api to allow players to join, participate and leave games. The emberjs web-browser frontend is located at github.com/dadleyy/oncore.
The web backend currently relies on three third party services:
- mongodb for peristing table and player state.
- redis for the asynchronous background job queue.
- auth0 for handling the integration with third party OAuth providers.
At this time, free, hosted instances of mongodb and redis are available at mongodb.com/cloud and redislabs
respectively. After creating the necessary accounts (or leveraging on-premise version of these), the .env.example
file located at the root of this repository can be used as a template for setting the credentials for authenticating
with these services.
Once the environment variables have been prepared, the main web process and background worker can be started using the
appropriate cargo aliases:
$ cargo stickbot <- web thread
$ cargo boxbot <- background worker
