Welcome to the RealTalkServer Wiki!

##Overview This is the back-end server for RealTalk. It stores user information as well as chat logs for RealTalk. It is built using Maven and written in the Java Programming Language. It is designed to run on Heroku.

Alpha Server: http://realtalkserveralpha.herokuapp.com

Development Server: http://realtalkserver.herokuapp.com

##Access Instructions URL of Server: http://realtalkserver.herokuapp.com

To access the different servlets in the server,

1. Look at web.xml (https://github.com/realtalk403/realtalkserver/blob/master/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml).

2. Under the appropriate Servlet-Mapping and its url-pattern, issue a query to the server using http://realtalkserver.herokuapp.com/. However, appropriate queries have to be given for this to work.

3. To find out what queries are valid, inspect the appropriate servlet class in the src/java/main/com/realtalk/servlets directory.

However, for security purposes, http GET only works during the development stage and only POST will work with our releases.

The server is hosted by Heroku. However to access it, credentials are needed. If required, email [email protected] for a request for those credentials.
