0. Config Server seed (Linux & Macosx & Windows)

To make the local sbt executable

cd server
chmod 700 sbt
chmod -R 700 ./sbt-dist/bin

1. How to use this seed? (Linux & Macosx)

1.1 Deploy your web-client

Change the path in your console to folder myClient with cd myClient
Install npm packages for building the client with npm install
Deploy the production client codes to the server npm run build

1.2 config your server

open the config file server/conf/application.conf in IDE
edit the myApp.home variable with the absolute path of your conf folder
```
myApp.home="/Users/yingding/VCS/github/hca17/week3/server/conf"
```
Note: Windows OS shall use the exactly the same path string as linux and macosx, for local.properties in Android, windows need to \\ and \: in the path.

edit the mongodb connection URL

playjongo.uri="mongodb://username:password@127.0.0.1:27017/mydb"

Note:

replace the username with your mongodb username
replace the password with your mongodb password for the username
replace the 127.0.0.1 with your host ip
replace mydb with your mongodb database name, in demo case it is the same “mydb”

1.3 Start server

Change the path in your console to folder server with cd ../server
Open the play interactive console with ./sbt
Type ~run to start play server in watch mode
Stop play server with Ctl + D
Then enter

1.4 See daemon in action

The play module follows lazy loading, with out the tcp request server module will not be loaded.
Call your web-client localhost:9000 in browser and examine the output in the sbt console
A example daemon printing out a date string for every minutes can be seen.

2. Issue while import the sbt project in IntelliJ IDEA

right click on week3 (root of the project)
Click on “File” (in Menu) -> Project Structure… -> remove the root and root-build module in Module section with “-“
open the build.sbt in server folder in IntelliJ IDEA utimate
Click on the “import project” on the yellow popup message
After indexing the play java project shall be imported properly
