This web tool is designed to help players of the video game Satisfactory™ to plan a comprehensive production chain.
The tool highlights bottlenecks in the production chain, and visually tells the player that they have a problem within their designs.
The player can scale up end product factories as they see fit, and check if their production chain can handle the increased load.
Since this is an open source project, all PR requests will be welcomed, as long as proper intent and communication with the project maintainers is maintained.
This project has the following requirements:
- Node.js version >20.17.0
- pnpm version >9.14.4
- Docker (for the backend)
cd webpnpm installRecommend brew for thisbrew install pnpm@9.14.4pnpm dev
Visit http://localhost:3000 to view the project.
There are tests for the frontend project, run them with pnpm test. Tests must pass for PRs to be accepted. Note as of writing the coverage isn't 100%.
The parser is responsible for processing the Docs.json from the game and reconstructing a more readable version for our use, since the game's docs file is overwhelmingly large and not very human-readable. The file is located under X\steamapps\common\Satisfactory\CommunityResources on Windows. Replace X with where you have installed your steam library.
To run the parser:
cd parsing
pnpm install
pnpm devWhen the parser is run, it outputs to file /parser/gameData.json. This file needs copying to /web/public/gameData_v1.x-xx.json. The version must directly correlate with the minor version of the game (unless a patch messes with a recipe, unlikely). e.g. v1.0-11.json would increment to v1.0-12.json. The old version needs deleting when you commit.
Once the new file has been placed, you must also edit /web/src/config/config.ts and update the version there too.
This instructs web clients to re-download the game data file with the new version upon refresh and replace their locally stored version.
Required for the login and syncing of data features, not required for local development.
- Start Docker service on your local machine.
cd backend./start.sh
API will be available on http://localhost:3001.
There are no tests currently available for the backend project.
New versions are trunked to main branch, once main has been pushed, GitHub Actions will create a release then deploy the frontend to Vercel, and create a docker image of the backend to deploy to my personal server.
