Unofficial Neuro Game SDK docs
This site is under heavy WIP, so contributions on GitHub are much appreciated! You've most likely been pointed to this site to point towards a concept, or something. Either way, take at least some of the info on this page with a grain of salt, and also don't expect much info since it's very incomplete on content.

Randy

Randy (aka Random Dot Range) is a JavaScript Neuro simulator that makes random choices when forced to do an action. This can be useful as a basic, low-latency testing tool to test your integrations.

You can also tell Randy to do an action by itself using a POST request to its HTTP endpoint.

Randy is maintained by alexvoid, and can be found here.

Setup

Section titled “Setup”

To set up Randy:

  1. Clone the Neuro Game SDK repo:

    Terminal window
    git clone https://github.com/VedalAI/neuro-game-sdk.git

  2. Navigate into the Randy subdirectory:

    Terminal window
    cd neuro-game-sdk/Randy

  3. Install dependencies using your package manager:

    Terminal window
    npm install

  4. Start Randy using:

    Terminal window
    npm run start

Startup

Section titled “Startup”

On startup, Randy occupies ports 8000 (WebSocket) and 1337 (HTTP) and will begin listening for packets.

Randy will immediately respond to actions/force packets with a random selection and mock data for the schema (if one is required). Otherwise, Randy will not respond or react to any packets (other than the registration and unregistration of actions).

If desired, you can make a POST request to Randy’s HTTP port to simulate Neuro manually selecting an action using the following example:

UNIX cURL
curl --request POST   --url http://localhost:1337/   --header 'Content-Type: application/json'   --data '{
    "command": "action",
    "data": {
        "id": "blegh",
        "name": "join_friend_lobby",
        "data": "{"friend_name": "jerma985"}"
    }
}'

Known issues

Section titled “Known issues”
  • Randy sometimes won’t let go of his HTTP port when closing. You can fix this with the following command:
Terminal window
npx kill-port 1337
