Using the MOTH Development Server
|
|
|
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To make puzzle development easier,
|
|
|
|
|
MOTH comes with a standalone web server written in Python,
|
|
|
|
|
which will show you how your puzzles are going to look without making you compile or package anything.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It even works in Windows,
|
|
|
|
|
because that is what my career has become.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Starting It Up
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Just run `devel-server.py` in the top-level MOTH directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installing New Puzzles
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You are meant to have your puzzles checked out into a `puzzles`
|
|
|
|
|
directory off the main MOTH directory.
|
|
|
|
|
You can do most of your development on this living copy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the directory containing `devel-server.py`, you would run something like:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
git clone /path/to/my/puzzles-repository puzzles
|
|
|
|
|
|
2016-10-15 21:47:50 -06:00
|
|
|
or on Unix:
|
2016-10-14 22:26:47 -06:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ln -s /path/to/my/puzzles-repository puzzles
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The development server wants to see category directories under `puzzles`,
|
|
|
|
|
like this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ find puzzles -type d
|
|
|
|
|
puzzles/
