## Installation instructions
* Use Recoiljs as state management,

* Use Ricochet.js as backend framework.

This is the procedure to install AirBoarGame application from scratch for
development purpose.
You need a recent node version. You can (and should) use [nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm)
to initialize your environment.
## Developper documentation

### Backend

First you need to install and start the server part of the application.
The server code use [Ricochet.js](https://github.com/jrmi/ricochet.js). A local
instance is installed and can be started but you can use your own instance.

To proceed, execute:

```sh
cd backend
npm ci
cp .env.dist .env
```

You have the opportunity to modify Ricochet.js configuration now by editing this
file. Default values should be fine for test but remember that data are only kept in
memory so you loose all your changes each time you restart the ricochet server
with this default. You also must to register again your site.
See [Ricochet.js](https://github.com/jrmi/ricochet.js) documentation for more
options and how to make data to persist.

Now you can start the ricochet server:

```sh
npm run ricochet
```

Then you must create the Airboardgame ricochet site by visiting your ricochet
server URL with a browser and fill the site creation form. Default Ricochet
server URL if you didn't modify configuration should be `http://localhost:4050/`.

The only important value here is `site Id` that should have the `airboardgame`
value.

Since the form is submitted, save the key from the server response and customize
`.env` file using this key to set the `RICOCHET_SITE_KEY`.

Remember to confirm the site creation by clicking the link displayed in Ricochet.js
sever logs if you use the default configuration for SMTP.

Now, you should start backend code modifications monitoring to generate
code executed by Ricochet.js in another terminal:

```sh
npm run watch
```

you also need an instance of `wire.io` so in another terminal, execute:

```sh
# /!\ Need npm >= v7
PORT=4051 npx wire.io
```

See [wire.io](https://github.com/jrmi/wire.io) documentation for more information
on how to configure it.

### Client

In another terminal, go back to project root and execute:

```sh
cd <project_root>/
npm ci
cp .env.dist .env
```

Edit the `.env` file to fit your needs. Default should be fine if you didn't
modify server configuration.

Then you can start the client:

```sh
npm start
```

Now you should have four terminals:

* the one with Ricochet.js server instance. Backend logs can be found here
* one terminal with auto build on change for backend files
* another with `wire.io` server running
* and a last one with React frontend server
* [Installation instructions](docs/dev.md)
* [Deploy your own instance](docs/dev.md)
