Getting Started 🚀

Setup on Render 🛠️

Deno: The project uses Deno as the runtime. It's automatically installed during the build process.

• Environment Variable:

  • DENO_INSTALL should be set to /opt/render/project/.deno.

• Build Command: This command installs Deno on the Render platform:

  curl -fsSL https://deno.land/install.sh | sh
  

• Start Command: This command sets up the environment and starts the application:

  export PATH="$DENO_INSTALL/bin:$PATH" && deno run --allow-net --allow-read server.js
  

Local Development 💻

If you want to run the application locally, follow these steps:

1. Install Deno on your machine 🦕.

2. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/ru-dr/socket-deno.git
   

3. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd socket-deno-template
   

4. Start the development server:

   deno run --allow-net --allow-read server.js
   

Usage 📡

Once the application is running, you can connect to the WebSocket server using a client (e.g., a web browser or a WebSocket client tool). The application supports basic real-time messaging.
