To install and run mods locally

You need to first install node.js.

Install the http-server npm package. Including '-g' sets the installs the package gloabally, allowing you to use it as a command line tool:

npm install http-server -g

Clone the mods repository:

git clone ssh://git@gitlab.cba.mit.edu:846/pub/mods.git

Use the command line to navigate to the root of the mods repository:

cd mods

Start up a server:

http-server

Open a browser tab and go to 127.0.0.1:8080 which is the same as http://localhost:8080 to view the server that you just started.

Depending on how to need to use mods you can start local servers located in mods/js, for example, if you start from the root of the mods repository:

cd js

node printserver.js

Mods Connection Debugging

set correct serial port permission (do this each time you reboot the machine): chmod a+rwx /dev/ttyUSB0

start serialserver in the terminal so you can see the logs as it tries to connect. navigate to the mods/js folder in the terminal (probably use cd ~/mods/js) and type: node serialserver.js ::ffff:127.0.0.1 1234

check serialserver is running with: ps aux | grep node
