Decentocker

Overview

decentocker is a decentralized poker game server built using Go (Golang). It allows players to connect to each other and play poker games in a peer-to-peer (P2P) manner. The server uses the TCP protocol for communication between players and provides an API for managing game states and player actions.

Features

Decentralized architecture: Players connect directly to each other, eliminating the need for a central server.

• P2P communication: Players communicate with each other using TCP connections, ensuring secure and reliable communication.
• Game variants: The server supports various poker game variants, such as Texas Hold'em.
• API: The server provides an API for managing game states and player actions, allowing for easy integration with front-end applications.

Getting Started

To get started with decentocker, follow these steps:

• Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/blue-davinci/decentocker.git

• Install dependencies: go get -v -u github.com/blue-davinci/decentocker/...

• Build the server: go build -v -o decentocker main.go

• Run the server: ./decentocker

• Start a new game by creating instances of the server and connecting them:

     playerA := makeServerAndStart(":3000", ":3001") // dealer
     playerB := makeServerAndStart(":4000", ":4001") // sb
     playerC := makeServerAndStart(":5000", ":5001") // bb
     playerD := makeServerAndStart(":7000", ":7001") // bb + 2
  
     playerB.Connect(playerA.ListenAddr)
     playerC.Connect(playerB.ListenAddr)
     playerD.Connect(playerC.ListenAddr)
