Boilerplate for a websocket-based “micro service” server running on Socket.io, Node.js, Express, MongoDB.
This is for when you DON’T want websocket client files to be hosted on the websocket server.
The client can run on another machine and connect over websockets:
Found in /server folder.
Start with:
grunt serve
The server is based on the angular-fullstack generator and contains Node.js, Express, MongoDB.
Found in /client folder. This is like a “dashboard” for the websocket server. The “Test Client” below is more interesting.
Found in /test-client folder.
Start with:
cd test-client
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 9007
The test client is written in AngularJS and uses angular-socket-io.
Big thanks to Leszek Hanusz for solving my Socket.io issues.
