ircexp

IRC like Experience but exponentially better with HTML5 and WebRTC

Overview

This code is just to show a simple demo of what secure collaborative real time editing with WebRTC and other buzz words might look like. It works just well enough to d a specific demo which is to say it is completely broken in a zillion ways. Don't expect it to actually work.

More explanation and a bit of the design can be found at Design;

Install Server Locally

Prerequisites:

make sure you have RabbitMQ running (See http://www.rabbitmq.com/install-standalone-mac.html)

Install with:

clone the repo, go into client directory and do

npm install
bower install

Go into the serv directory and do

npn install
copy secret.json.tmpl to secret.json and edit it to configure you URLs and such. You will need to create an app on linkedIn and set the URLs used on the linkedIn page as well as configure info into this file. Also needs to set URLs for redis, rabbitMQ, and mongo.

Set up your DNS to point to the server

Set up your linkedIn application with correct URLs

Set up your secret.json on dev machine with username and hostname of production server in prod section
