**************************************************************** THANKS FOR DOWNLOADING PHUDBASE, SOCKET SERVIN' GOODNESS IN PHP **************************************************************** This'll give you a very basic idea of how to get started with the codebase. INSTALLATION AND FIRST RUN --------------------------- - Untar the file in your folder of choice in your web server's home folder - Open <folder>/server/game.php in your editor of choice - Change the HOST and PORT settings, if necessary - If you'll be using a WebSocket client and you changed WS_HOST in game.php: -- Open <folder>/client/js/client.js -- Edit the "var wshost" line to match your WS_HOST + WS_RESOURCE - On the command line and in <folder>/server, issue the following command: php -q game.php - If you see something like: Attempting to bind to port 12345... Socket server started at address 127.0.0.1 on port 12345 congrats! You have PHudBase server running. - If you're using the WebSocket client, in a WebSocket compatible browser visit http://127.0.0.1/<folder>/client/ (or the appropriate HOST) - If all goes well, you'll see the light turn green and a request for you to enter a character name. - If you're using Telnet, just try a standard telnet 127.0.0.1 12345 and type a character name. - Welcome to Phud! --------------------------- If you have trouble (or success) getting PHudBase running, let me know over at the Google Groups page: http://groups.google.com/group/phudbase-developers Good luck! CHANGE LOG --------------------------- v1.0 - 8 Feb 2010: Initial release v1.1 - 9 Feb 2010: Various little fixes v1.2 - 9 Feb 2010: Improved handling of WebSocket connections vs. Telnet -- Added bug-fix for PHP core level missing MSG_DONTWAIT define -- GameServer::on_connect now preempts on_read for WebSocket Handshake -- GameServer::on_connect now sends welcome message immediately for Telnet -- GameServer::on_read now ignores inputs from non-"handshaked" clients
