Below are the following GitHub repositories that comprise the Galaxy services.
Catalogue
Summary
Contains the catalogue, a static web page, that showcases the games, leaderboards, and friends' activity.
During the build step, via Gulp and Metalsmith, the HTML is generated from static JSON files, Markdown files, and HTML templates. The compiled HTML talks to the backend API (`galaxy-api`) via WebSockets to render any user-specific information (i.e., leaderboards and friends' activity).
Technologies used
HTML, CSS, JavaScript, WebSockets, Gulp, Metalsmith.
Repository
REST/WebSocket API
Summary
Contains the REST API server and the WebSocket server that the catalogue (`galaxy`) talks to and the in-game services (`galaxy.js`) talk to.
Technologies used
Node.js, Koa, Chai, Mocha, Redis, PostgreSQL, WebSockets, Gulp.
Repository
galaxy.js
Summary
Contains the JavaScript file that developers can include in their games to get access to the Galaxy in-game services.
Technologies used
