Mancala

Mancala is an open source application for playing mancala game online.

Development

The apps use the local packages/mancala.js and packages/core through link: dependencies, so build those first:

yarn build:packages        # from the repo root

After changing a package, rebuild it (or run yarn dev in it to rebuild on change); the apps pick up the new dist.

Postgres (games and Keycloak), Valkey (live games and caches) and Keycloak run with Docker Compose. Create apps/.env once, then start them:

cd apps
cat > .env <<EOF
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres
KEYCLOAK_DB_PASSWORD=keycloak
KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin
MANCALA_DB_PASSWORD=mancala
EOF
docker compose up -d --build postgres valkey keycloak

Postgres is on localhost:5433 and Valkey on localhost:6379; the backend's defaults point there. Then run yarn dev in apps/backend (port 5005) and in apps/frontend (port 1234).

Docker images for the backend and frontend are built from the repo root:

docker build -f apps/backend/Dockerfile -t jhalitaksoy/mancala-backend .
docker build -f apps/frontend/Dockerfile -t jhalitaksoy/mancala-frontend .
