Cantas is a real-time collaborative web application.This is a side project, used as internal productivity tool in Red Hat.

This we believe, is a great open source project for learning HTML5/Nodejs/socket.io/backbone.js technology.

• rpm requirements:

  sudo yum install -y krb5-devel krb5-libs krb5-workstation

• install Nodejs, npm, MongoDB, Redis.

  # nodejs & npm
  wget http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.22/node-v0.10.22.tar.gz
  tar -xvf node-v0.10.22.tar.gz
  cd node-v0.10.22
  ./configure && make
  sudo make install
  # mongo
  sudo yum install mongodb mongodb-server
  # redis
  sudo yum install redis

Note: If you got g++: command not found while you installing nodejs, you can install it by sudo yum install gcc-c++.

• checkout source code and update node packages via npm

  git clone git@github.com:onepiecejs/nodejs-cantas.git
  cd nodejs-cantas
  npm install

• start redis server and mongodb server

  # if you have installed them as services, do
  sudo systemctl start redis
  sudo systemctl start mongod
  # or
  sudo service redis start
  sudo service mongod start

  # otherwise,
  redis-server &
  && mongod --dbpath=/tmp &

• start the app

  # update settings values
  cp settings.json.example settings.json
  # setup initalize data
  node scripts/db_init_label_metadata.js
  # start the app
  NODE_ENV=development node app.js

Note: Make sure the mongod deamon is running before starting the app. To enable Google signin you will need to create a Client ID in the Google Developer Console.

That's it.
