Cybertown Revival

This project is an attempt to resurrect and preserve Cybertown, a VRML based community from the mid-90s/early-00s. This repository contains the entire codebase for the new platform, built by the community.

Development Environment Setup Instructions

We utilise docker to manage the entire development environment and to make it easy to set up and run.

Requirements

You will need to have the following already installed on your machine and a basic understanding in order to run the development environment:

You may also wish to install Docker for Desktop if you wish. For beginners, there are plenty of tutorials and videos online on installation and the basics of node, npm and docker.

Initial Setup

  1. Clone this repository to your machine.
  2. Rename spa/.env.example to spa/.env and api/.env.example to api/.env.
  3. In the cloned directory, run docker-compose up from command line. This will install the docker environment, install node dependencies via npm and start the servers.
  4. Navigate to the spa/ directory and run npm run dev to compile the SPA.
  5. In your browser, visit http://localhost:8001/ to confirm it's running.

To run the environment again in the future, simple repeat steps 2 onwards.

Creating the database

To initialize a database within the mysql container, run the command below from within the api/ directory.

Running this will create a new database using settings configured in api/knexfile.ts:

npm run db:init

After the database is created, the schema and some necessary seed data are created automatically.

Automatically Compiling the SPA

When making changes to the SPA, provided you have ran npm run dev from spa/ all your changes will be automatically re-compiled.
