# Building the project
Requirements:
- Windows.
- Visual Studio 2022.
- PostgreSQL 9.6

After installing the required programs, open `msvc/archlord.sln`, set platform to `x64` and build the solution.

# Installation
## Preparing the database
PostgreSQL 9.6 is required to run the server.
Later versions of PostgreSQL may or may not work.
After installing PostgreSQL, do not forget to add its `bin` directory to your path. 

After installation, open a command prompt and make sure that your path is properly setup by typing:
```
psql --version
```
You should get something similar to `psql (PostgreSQL) 9.6.9`.
Next, type following to create database and user:
```
createuser -U postgres aluser
createdb -U postgres archlord
```
Access PostgreSQL shell with:
```
psql -U postgres (type in your password)
```
Provide privileges to user:
```
ALTER USER aluser WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'pwdpwd';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE archlord TO aluser;
```
Now that the database and user are ready, we can create required tables.
First, logout with:
```
\q
```
Login with:
```
psql -U aluser -d archlord
```
Create required tables:
```
CREATE TABLE accounts (
	account_id VARCHAR(50) PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
	data BYTEA
);

CREATE TABLE guilds (
	guild_id VARCHAR(50) PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
	data BYTEA
);
```

## Server configuration
Open `(repo)/config` with any text editor.
`ServerIniDir` and `ServerNodePath` are relative to project directory so they can be skipped. 
`..ServerIP` should be changed to your machine's IP address.
`DBName`, `DBUser` and `DBPassword` can be skipped as long as you have followed instructions above.

## Creating a test account
After preparing the database, compiling the project and editing configuration file, it is now possible to create an account and enter the game.

In your config file, you will see 'WebServerIP' and 'WebServerPort'. These will be used to create an HTTP server that can handle certain GET requests. You can use your browser to create a test account with:
```
WebServerIP:WebServerPort/createaccount?accountid=..&pwd=..&email=..
ex: 192.168.1.35:8080/createaccount?accountid=hunter&pwd=password&email=nomail@foo.com
```
