This is a Rust web server (using actix-web). It uses a very simple method to communicate with the Svelte client in client/ to coordinate and decide which client buzzed in first in a certain round.
- Multiple players can connect to the server from the same client
- Players may choose their own keys with which to buzz in
- Players who have already buzzed in in a given round are forbidden from buzzing in until the next round
- Buzzer keeps track of players' scores
- Buzzer keeps a comprehensive score history which can be edited arbitrarily by the host and automatically reconstructs current scores based on changes to the history.
- The server and client communicate over websockets, meaning that virtually zero network resources are used.
Run with cargo run (automatically binds to http://localhost:8080)
This should generate a conf.json file in the project root. In it, you can change the address the server will bind to and the level of logging.
