# Node TLCV
A server implementation of Tom's live chess viewer. Designed to work with Graham Bank's [CCRL](https://computerchess.org.uk/ccrl/4040/) broadcasts. Watch live at [https://ccrl.live](https://ccrl.live/)!
## Running your own
### Requirements
- Your own [Tom's live chess server](https://www.chessprogramming.org/TLCS-TLCV)
- I do not know how TLCS is setup as I do not host any broadcasts myself
- [Node.JS](https://nodejs.org/en/)
- [pm2](https://pm2.keymetrics.io/) if you'd like to run this in the background
### Setup
- Create a base config in `config/config.json`.
- It should be of the form: `{ connections: string[] }` where each string is `:`
- Create a `.env` file at the same level as this `README` and specify a `TLCV_PASSWORD`
```bash
# .env
TLCV_PASSWORD=password
```
### Compile
```bash
npm install && npm run build
```
### Start the server
- Launches on port 8080
```bash
node build/src/main.js # runs in foreground
# or
pm2 start build/src/main.js # runs in background
```
### Admin Panel
- Admin panel can be accessed at `/admin`
- Username is `admin`
- Password is specified by the `TLCV_PASSWORD` environment variable (see above)
