Grmble

Getting Started

• install node (http://nodejs.org/)
• install mongo (http://www.mongodb.org/downloads)
• install redis (http://redis.io/download)
• clone the code: git clone git@github.com:andyburke/grmble.git
• cd grmble/server
• npm install (to install all required modules)
• copy grmble/server/config/server.config.js.example to grmble/server/config/server.config.js and adjust settings
• run mongod
• run redis-server
• nodemon --debug server.js
• http://localhost:8000/

Optional, But Recommended

• sudo npm install -g nodemon (for easy iteration)
• sudo npm install -g node-inspector (for debugging)

Running (Debug)

Open two terminals. In one, run:

nodemon --debug server.js

In the other, run:

node-inspector

This will output a line like:

visit http://0.0.0.0:8080/debug?port=5858 to start debugging

Plug that url into your favorite webkit browser and you'll be able to set breakpoints, etc.
