LiveCast

Tikal's Fuseday JS Session Concept - a live screencast system for remote

Major changes

Old project sources were moved to master-old branch. ##New Features##

• Use Grunt to build project
• The application is based on grunt-init-express template
• Use socket session to store user session data (server side)
• Use Ejs to render pages on the server side
• All static server contetn moved to ./app/private (After the build they will be available @ ./app/public)

##Getting Started## Pre-requisites:

1. Install [Nodejs](http://nodejs.org/)
2. Install [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/installing-grunt)
3. Install [supervisor](https://github.com/isaacs/node-supervisor)

Set up development env.:

1. Clone the repo
2. cd into LiveCast
3. Run: npm install (Installs development environment)
4. cd into app/ (i.e. .../LiveCast/app)
5. Run: npm install (installs the app itesf)
6. Run: grunt

Grunt will do the build and start a proxy server at http://localhost:8000.

To run the application without grunt:

1. cd into .../LiveCast/app
2. Run: node app.js

Server should listen to port 3000

##Static content## All the static (js, css & img) content is located under /private. The Grunt build process will copy them to /public

/views/index.ejs renders to "index.html" so this is the main view for the app.

The templating engine is ejs (very similar to jsp scriptlets).
