Kalaxia is a free multiplayer strategy-game taking place in space.
The client is powered by Godot Engine, and the server-side is powered by Rust.
Prerequisites
- Rust <= 1.52.1
- Cargo <= 1.52
Instructions
First things first, you can fork or directly clone the repository :
git clone git@github.com:Kalaxia/v2-api.git kalaxia-api
To run the game, simply use cargo run.
If you want to get the exact same environment as the production to check if your work is compatible, you can use Docker and Docker Compose.
Before that you must copy the environment configuration files :
cp .dist.env .env
cp kalaxia.dist.env kalaxia.env
The game server enables SSL by default. If you have forged a local certificate for test purpose, you can drop the cert and the key in ./var/ssl and then set the file names in kalaxia.env (the path must start with /var/ssl which is the Docker remote folder bound to ./var/ssl).
To disable the default SSL feature, go to .env file and remove the ssl-secure feature. You shall obtain the following file:
FEATURES=
At this moment you can start your Docker container :
docker-compose up -d
(At the current time, the Docker build is quite long and has a high CPU-consumption. The team will work soon to simplify that but for now Docker building is not the simpler way to run the game server)
The API documentation can be found here.
The Websocket endpoints are documented here
