Welcome to AquaGame

NOTE: AquaGame is currently undergoing heavy refactoring work to accomodate a better UI, better back end and better access. Pull at your own risk! :-)

The actual version is 1.0.

AquaGame is a new WebLab-Deusto type of experiment based in the aqualab to integrate a Serious Game. This game tend to be a game to learn basics of Archimedes Principles using a remote laboratory with different balls of different densities that really float on the water in real time. There are many different Technologies implied like Python ,Django, JavaScript, JQuery, HTML, CSS3, ...

WARNING: AquaGame is still experimental.

Hey, check out WebLab-Deusto project! http://weblab.deusto.es

Requirements

AquaGame is developed on a Ubuntu 12.04 system, running:

• Python 2.7
• Django 1.5.1
• python-mysqldb 1.2.3
• mysql-server 5.5.32
• Supervisord
• Apache2

It might work with other versions.

Setting up the environment and config

To put in production only needs a little configuration in apache httpd.conf.

$ sudo nano /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

In this file put this two lines at the start of the file:

WSGIScriptAlias /AquaGame/app/ /home/[your user]/[AquaGame_root_path]/RELab/wsgi.py
WSGIPythonPath /home/[your user]/[AquaGame_root_path]/

And add this line to the end of that file:

Alias /AquaGame/static/ /home/[your user]/[AquaGame_root_path]/AquaGame/static

Put your terminal in the root directory of the project and type:

$ python manage.py syncdb

and put the file supervisord.conf in the path /etc/supervisord.conf:

cp [AquaGame_root_path]/supervisord.conf /etc/supervisord.conf

put the file supervisord in /etc/init.d and configure it:

cp [AquaGame_root_path]/supervisord /etc/init.d/supervisord
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/supervisord
sudo update-rc.d supervisord defaults
sudo service supervisord start

You can access to the interface in the same machine on:

0.0.0.0:8000/AquaGame

or in another machine (i.e. a mobile device) connected to the same LAN on:

[MachineLanIP]:8000/AquaGame
