inKlan

Node.js setup on Linux

(the way we did it)

(based on this gist from isaacs):

• First, create a local folder on your home where you wish to install node to:
  • mkdir $HOME/local
  • we install on this folder so that you don't ever have to sudo when using node or npm
• Now go into a folder where you want to clone the node repository to
  • It doesn't need to be the local folder we created
• git clone https://github.com/joyent/node.git
• git fetch
• git checkout v0.12.7-release
• ./configure --prefix=$HOME/local ./configure --with-intl=full-icu --download=all
  • The command above configures the installation to be on the local folder, and some other stuff
  • For more information check the repository page
• make install
• Now you're ready to go!

Running inKlan:

• Go into the inKlan folder and:
• If running for the first time: npm install
• node server.js
• Open one (or several) browser (s) and open localhost:3000
• To draw, click on canvas;
• To make a line or polygon from the points, click one of the buttons.
