Welcome to Attack on College, our CEN3031 project

Documentation of the requirements for running and using our app.

Front-End

Our front-end is based off of angular.

In order to properly run angular applications it is recommended by the developers to have Node.js installed, as well as having the angular CLI downloaded locally.

• Node.js
• After downloading Node.js, run the command npm install -g @angular/cli in your console.

After downloading both required things and downloading our project AttackonCollege, enter the project folder and run the following commands in the console.

• npm install
• ng install
• ng serve

You can then navigate to localhost:4200

Please note that this will only launch the front end unconnected to the backend

Back-end

As of now, the front-end and back-end are linked up. Starting the server and Angular allows the two to communicate. GoLang needs to be installed and set up for execution on the machine to properly start the server. If both Angular and Go are installed, running npm start in the console of the AttackOnCollege directory will start both up. For testing purposes, running go run ./back_end/src/*.go will start up just the server. Although Codegangsta Gin is NOT used to start the server, it does give testing feedback in the console. The reason for not running with Gin is that Gin is very verbose and it is hard to read through all the output.
