Using React.js and Socket.io, I built the React-chatting-App. This project is written by [Big Silver].
Note: You need MongoDB set up and running to run the code locally. Installation instructions
Once you've installed MongoDB start up the MongoDB server in a new terminal with the following commands:
mkdir db
mongod --dbpath=./db --smallfiles
Then open a new terminal and type in mongo and type in use chat_dev
This is your database interface. You can query the database for records for example: db.users.find() or db.stats().
Now that you've done all that, you can go go ahead and code away!
git clone https://github.com/Big-Silver/React-Redux-Socketio-Chat.git react@redux-chat
cd react@redux-chat
npm install
npm run dev
And then point your browser to localhost:3000
Note: This program comes with redux-dev tools
- To hide the dev tool panel press ctrl+h
- To change position press ctrl+m
npm run build
npm start
And then point your browser to localhost:3000
