Setup

Launching from a new server

Requirements:

• Ensure you have NodeJS installed on your machine.

Installation:

• Get a fresh clone of the repository:

  git clone https://github.com/LucaPuddu/agar.io-clone.git
  

• Navigate into the directory you just cloned the repository into:

  cd agar.io-clone
  

• Install gulp globally (may require root privileges):

  npm install -g gulp
  

• Install the application dependencies:

  npm install
  

• Run the server:

  gulp run
  

Your server should be listening to port 3000 by default. You can change any of the default parameters by editing the config.json file.
