Demo

Developing

Server

• These env vars must be set before running the command below
  • export AWS_URL=
  • export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=
  • export AWS_REGION=
  • export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=
  • export AWS_S3_BUCKET=
  • export DATABASE_PUBLIC_URL=
  • export CLIENT_ID=
  • export CLIENT_SECRET=
  • export GOOGLE_REDIRECT_URL=
• air will run the server in watch mode, or simply run the server using go run main.go

Client

• npm install to install tailwind
• npx tailwindcss -i ./client/input.css -o ./client/output.css --minify --watch to generate styles in watch mode
• client.js change websocket url to localhost when local server running

TODO

• Bug sometimes when seeking, sends infinite play/pause messages
• Reconnect logic?
• Chat system?
