Node server hosted on AWS, mainly used for REST endpoints.

1. npm install

2. Create a config.json and paste this in:

{
    "accessKeyId": "<ACCESS_KEY_ID>",
    "secretAccessKey": "<SECRET_ACCESS_KEY>"
}

You can get these credentials from Avaer.

3. Create a cert/ folder. Create 2 new files inside: fullchain.pem and privkey.pem. Ask Avaer for the certificates.

4. npm run start (forever) or npm run dev (nodemon).

GET worlds.exokit.org/{worldId}

Returns an object with: Host, World Name and Uptime of server.

POST worlds.exokit.org/create

Returns an object with: Host, World Name and Uptime of server.

DELETE worlds.exokit.org/{worldId}

Terminates the ec2 associated with world.

1.) Make sure your dialog repo changes are commited to the dialog/worlds branch.

2.) Go to world-server repo and bump the package.json version number. (this triggers the GH action to execute and create a new release, it will pull dialog/worlds)

3.) After the GH action is done, copy the hash of the release and paste it into exokit-backend/routes/worlds.js in the updateZipFile() fetch url.

4.) SSH into exokit-backend EC2 server (can get the IP from AWS dashboard), and delete the world-server.zip file. (it exists inside ~/exokit-backend/)

5.) npm run start inside of exokit-backend. (this will start a forever process and start downloading the new ZIP file from the Github release.

6.) After it is done, verify the logs. (sudo forever list, sudo forever logs [index]) The server is up and running and will create new world-servers with the fresh codebase.

P.S. To truly wipe the old servers and start fresh, you need to login to AWS and terminate the old world servers OR you can use the DELETE API for worlds.
