System overview

Build dependencies

  • go >= 1.16
  • nodejs >= v17.4.0
  • npm >= 8.3.0

Create the frontend bundle

cd public
npm ci
npm run bundle

Development setup

Working directory: ./server

Preparing the files and map

Copy your map.sqlite into the working directory if you want to test with a sqlite map database

world.mt

You need a world.mt too in order to make the connection to the database. In the sqlite case:

gameid = minetest
backend = sqlite3
creative_mode = false
enable_damage = false
player_backend = files

For postgres:

gameid = minetest
backend = postgresql
creative_mode = true
enable_damage = true
player_backend = postgresql
pgsql_connection = host=localhost port=5432 user=postgres password=enter dbname=postgres
pgsql_player_connection = host=localhost port=5432 user=postgres password=enter dbname=postgres

Running the server

  • Create a mapserver.json with go run . -createconfig
  • Change the value webdev in the mapserver.json to true
  • Start the server with go run . or with debug output: go run . -debug
  • The web files in public/ can now be changed on the fly without restarting the server
