Dependencies

npm

The Node Package Manager. This will install all the needed node modules.

Install

Run these commands to install the help-queue server.

git clone https://github.com/purdueLUG/help-queue
cd help-queue
npm install

Usage

To start the server, run

npm start

The server will run by default on port 3000. If you want to run the server on port 80, run

PORT=80 npm start

Note that you probably need elevated permissions for ports less than 1024, so run

sudo PORT=80 npm start

npm install -g nodemon

To run the server,

DEBUG=help-queue* nodemon
