Introduction
Nightcoders.net is a cloud IDE for ClojureScript. To successfully run it on a server, all you need to do is build the uberjar using the command below, and run it on your server with boot.jar (located at the root of this repo) in the same directory. It will need the JDK installed but will not need Boot installed.
That's not a joke...there is literally nothing else you need to do. Just java -jar nightcoders.jar and it will run. It uses H2, an embedded database, so there is nothing else to set up. Clojure is dope!
If you want to use your own Google Sign In client id (which you should...), find the existing one in these three files and change them to whatever you want:
resources/public/nightcoders.htmlresources/public/loading.htmlsrc/clj/nightcoders/core.clj
Your server must proxy web socket connections for the code reloading to work properly. If you are using nginx, they have documentation on how to do this. Make sure proxy_send_timeout and proxy_read_timeout are set to a reasonable amount. See this file for an example of what you might want in your /etc/nginx/sites-available/default file.
If you are experiencing permissions errors in your control panel, it may be because the sandboxing system isn't working properly. You can disable it by commenting out this line.
Development
- Install JDK 8 or above
- Install the Clojure CLI tool
- To develop with figwheel:
clj -A:dev:cljs - To build the uberjar:
clj -A:prod:cljs uberjar
