Node.js realtime server

To run the server, you need to install the dependencies and run the server. Please ensure you have followed the OS-specific instructions in doc/ to install NodeJS. Once you have node, then you can proceed to install the node packages for the realtime server:

cd realtime
npm install #creates node_modules directory
node realtime-server.js

That's it!

To run the server as a daemon that will be re-run if it crashes, you can use the forever node package.

sudo npm install -g forever
forever start realtime-server.js
