calzoneman b7cdc0c056 Force channel names to be lowercase Since MySQL is case-insensitive, treating varying cases as unique names was a prroblem. Existing channels with uppercase names should not be affected as the database lookup finds a match without case sensitivity.		2013-04-05 14:03:35 -05:00

About

Sync is a server/client combination I wrote to synchronize media playback among clients. It's inspired by Synchtube, but I wanted to make the interface simpler, add a searchable library for each channel, and it's just a fun challenge.

The serverside is written in JavaScript and runs on Node.JS. It makes use of a MySQL database to store user registrations, cached media metadata, and data about each channel.

The clientside is written in JavaScript and makes use of Socket.IO and jQuery. The web interface uses Bootstrap for layout and styling.

Sync currently supports YouTube, Soundcloud, Vimeo, Dailymotion, Livestream, and TwitchTV.

Installing

This assumes you have Node.JS installed. I'm using v0.10, please feel free to report which versions do/do not work

1. Clone this repository
2. `cd` to the directory containing the source files
3. Install socket.io: `npm install socket.io`
4. Install connect: `npm install connect`
5. Install your distribution's `libmysqlclient` package
6. Install the libmysql node module: `npm install mysql-libmysqlclient`
7. Install bcrypt: `npm install bcrypt`
8. Install node_hash: `npm install node_hash`
9. Edit `config.js` and input your database details and connection port
10. Edit `www/assets/js/iourl.js` and change the value of `IO_URL` to `yourhostname:port` where `port` is the port defined in `config.js`

Running

Start the server: node server.js You should now be able to connect via yourhostname:port where port is the port you defined in config.js
