- GET /games/me/active and /games/me (Bearer token), /games/popular (live games, or the most spectated finished ones), and /game/:id now also returns saved records of finished games - Lists are cached in Valkey for 10 seconds, cleared when a game is saved, and empty instead of failing while the database is down - Live game previews over WebSocket: subscribers get the top 5 on subscribe and on change, at most once per second, without counting as spectators; ids are public ids - RTMT supports several connection listeners |

This is the backend code for the Mancala project, written in Express.js.

Development Dependencies
This package links the local packages @mancala/core and mancala.js. Build them first with yarn build:packages in the repo root.
Authentication
Clients log in with Keycloak (see apps/keycloak), either as a guest or with an account, and send the access token
over the WebSocket right after connecting:
{ "channel": "auth", "message": { "token": "<Keycloak access token>" } }
The server answers on on_auth with the user ({ id, name, isGuest }) or on on_auth_error and closes the socket
with code 4001. Other messages are ignored until the socket is authenticated, and connections that do not
authenticate within 5 seconds are closed. Send auth again with the new token after refreshing it.
User ids of Keycloak users are the token subject prefixed with kc:.
| Variable | Default | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
KEYCLOAK_ISSUER |
http://localhost:8080/realms/mancala |
Token issuer; must match the iss claim exactly |
KEYCLOAK_JWKS_URL |
issuer + /protocol/openid-connect/certs |
Where to fetch signing keys, if the backend reaches Keycloak at a different address |
KEYCLOAK_CLIENT_IDS |
mancala-web |
Comma-separated clients whose tokens are accepted |
LEGACY_USERKEY_AUTH |
true |
Also accept old clients that connect with ?userKey=<uuid> and the /register endpoint. Turn off once no released client uses it, because a userKey is not a secret the server can check |
