A collection of libraries and tools to create programming challenges and competitions.

1. Make sure to have (a recent version of) Node and NPM installed and in PATH.
2. Make sure to have installed tmux
3. To install dependencies, run:

    ( cd server/ ; npm ci )
    ( cd web/ ; npm ci )

Possible issue

On Ubuntu 18.04 (and maybe other older version) the NPM could not be updated to the latest version available with a default installation. This could make the previous code to not work because it is not recognizing the comand npm ci. To fix this problem you need to upgrade to a recent version of NPM running:

    curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | sudo -E bash -
    sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

4. Import the example contest with:

    ( cd server/ ; npm run cli -- import ../examples/example-contest/ )

5. TODO: running the server in production

You can run this application with Docker, to have a system ready to use, that you can also use on macOS or Windows.

1. Build the Docker container (at this point we don't provide prebuilt ones)

docker build . -t turingarena:turingarena

It will probably take a few minutes, so go to drink a cofee while the system build everything.

2. Start the server like this

docker run --privileged -it -p 3000:3000 -v $PWD/server:/data turingarena:turingarena serve

Of course change the port or the working directory (/data) as you wish. It's important to use the --privileged option, otherwise the sandbox will not work. You may need root privileges on your system to use that.
