Vat-Tracker

This application utilizes Mapbox to display live VATSIM data.

Requirements to Operate

In order for the application to function, three functions need to be active:

  1. React Dev server

  2. Express server (operates Express connection to React Dev server)

Installation

Run the following from the Command Line:

git clone https://github.com/incarnateTheGreat/vat-tracker

cd vat-tracker

Once the above steps are complete, download the latest dependencies by running:

npm install

Development Server

  1. From the Command Line, run npm start.

  2. Navigate to http://localhost:4321/. (You can change the PORT to whatever you wish via the package.json file)

Information Server

In order to gather VATSIM and Airport data, you need to have an Express Server running in the background.

  1. From the Command Line, open a new tab.

  2. Go to server.

  3. Run node server.js, or use nodemon by running nodemon server.js.

  4. Should prompt Express servers started! shortly afterwards.

Tech Stack

Using:

  • React (to run the Dev server and operate all front-end technology)
  • Mapbox (to draw Map, specifically using react-map-gl)
  • Express (to run backend server)
