Solace Orchestra

A distributed music playing game over messaging.

Starting it up

There are four components that you need to run:

• conductor
• symphony
• dashboard
• musician - in orchestra-hero directory

Startup for symphony, dashboard and musician

The symphony and dashboard components are in on single-page app that is contained in the combined directory. The musician is in its own directory.

All three of these components are javascript single-page apps for the browser. To get them to work, you need to go into each directory (combined and musician) and run:

1. npm install
2. npm run watch - note that this never exits, so you will need a separate terminal for each

This will run a webpack-dev-server that will serve up the SPA.

To run a component, you should be able to go to:

• Dashboard/Symphony: http://localhost:8888/
• Musician: http://localhost:8889/

Startup for conductor

For the conductor, the easiest way to run it is to do:

1. Navigate to solace-orchestra/conductor/conductor
2. Run the following:

  virtualenv -p python3 env
  . env/bin/activate
  pip install -r ../requirements.txt

Next you need a credentials file in your home directory called solace.cloud. Its contents are:

  url=<solace-cloud-service-url>
  port=<mqtt-port>
  username=<username>
  password=<password>

After than, run the conductor with:

  python3 conductor.py
