Redline

A firefighting game to study the relationship between information visualization and player behaviour.

Running the system

Check that port 80 is forwarded to port 9501 as described below.

We are using pm2 to run the server. The configuration file for both BOFS and the RedlineDataServer can be found in home/jwuertz/ecosystem.json.

You can see the state of the servers vai pm2 list and restart them both via pm2 restart all.

If you change the ecosystem.json file (i.e. you wish to add environment variables) you must run pm2 reload ecosystem.json from the directory.

Speaking of environment variables: You can add any environment variable that your server might want by adding it into the env section of the app in the ecosystem.json file.

For example the default port is set like so:

"env": {
  "PORT": 9500
},

IMPORTANT

In order for this to work the game has to run on port 80 of the hcidev.cs.unb.ca server. Or an additional rule has to be added to the CORS configuration of the Nodejs server.

Currently this is achieved with a port forwarding rule from 80 => 9501 which forwards requests to the BOFS server that is serving the game. This rule can be created via

sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 9501

You can make sure the rule is in place by running:

sudo iptables -t nat -L -n -v

This is achieved via nginx now. The configuration file for this project can be found in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled.

The current BOFS server can be found at /var/www/bofs/redline.
