• Node.js

Instructions for getting started with this setup, are located Github Repo

Local Development Environment Setup

In its current state, EnCOMPASS is tightly linked with VMT. When a user signs up with EnCOMPASS, they also receive a VMT account which has the same username (and vice versa). If a user is logged in to one app, they will also be logged in to the other app. As a result, you must also be running mt-sso and VMT for user registration and login to work properly. If you do not need signup functionality while developing, then you do not need to be running VMT.

If you wish to run EnCOMPASS separately, then you just need to remove the existing auth routes (server/datasource/api/auth) and middleware (server/datasource/middleware) and put in your own system. In addition, you may want to remove the components used for importing VMT work and strip out the workspace features/logic that are specific to viewing VMT replays within EnCOMPASS.
