Webludo

This project is a Phoenix server that handles running a game of beer-Ludo ("Kalja-Kimble"). The API is based on Phoenix channels. A Postgres-based persistence layer is included for longer games. See the Preact frontend project for the corresponding web client. The current version of the game can be played at https://webludo.katris.dev/

Initial local setup

Steps to setup the project the first time:

• Clone the repository
• Install dependencies with mix deps.get
• Ensure that a local Postgres database is running and the settings in config/dev.exs match your local setup
• Create and migrate your database with mix ecto.setup

Local server

To start your Phoenix server: mix phx.server

The server now runs in localhost:4000. There is no built-in browser interface, but running the Preact frontend project locally works well.

Production deployment

The production instance can be found at https://webludo-api.oni.dev. Deployment is done through Gigalixir.

1. Deploy by running git push gigalixir master
2. (If migrations are needed:) gigalixir ps:migrate to run missing database migrations

Accessing production server logs

You can tail the production server logs by running gigalixir logs
