dooully / slither

An open source implementation of the slither.io server

slither

This is supposed to be an open source implementation of the slither server built on top of Node.js that emulates the full functionality of the original server.

Install

You can get the latest stable release from the releases page. Once you've downloaded it, you are ready to run the following commands:

$ cd slither
$ npm install

Obviously, if you want to try the latest version, you can clone the master branch but can have bugs because it's a development branch, so don't use it for production.

The server depends on Node.js, npm and other packages that are downloaded and installed during the installation process.

Run

You can start the server by executing $ script/run or $ npm start.

The server will be accesible at localhost:8080 but you will need a client (you can use the original one) to be able to play the game.

Plugins

If you want to install a plugin, add it to packageDependencies in the package.json with the respective version.

{
  ...
  "packageDependencies": {
    "my-plugin": "0.1.0"
  }
}

and run $ script/install.
