# HeliumRecServer (custom-node-server branch)
|
|
|
|
This branch adds a Node.js skeleton for running a custom Rec Room (2023) server replacement that you can adapt to work with the Photon-based client by swapping keys/addresses in the client.
|
|
|
|
What I added in this commit:
|
|
- WebSocket server skeleton (src/index.js) that accepts query-token authentication and persists minimal user data
|
|
- Protocol stub (src/protocol.js) — where Rec Room / Photon packet parsing should be implemented
|
|
- Auth helpers (src/auth.js) for Steam/RecNet token verification (placeholders that call configured endpoints)
|
|
- SQLite persistence (src/storage.js)
|
|
- Logger and test client
|
|
- package.json with dependencies
|
|
|
|
Environment variables (set in .env):
|
|
- PORT (default 5055) — WebSocket server port
|
|
- LOG_LEVEL — winston log level (info/debug/...)
|
|
- STEAM_WEB_API_KEY — Steam Web API key (if you plan to use Steam verification)
|
|
- RECNET_VERIFY_URL — RecNet verification endpoint to POST { token }
|
|
- SQLITE_FILE — path for the SQLite DB file (default ./helium.db)
|
|
|
|
How to run:
|
|
1. Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and fill in the variables you need.
|
|
2. npm install
|
|
3. npm start
|
|

Notes about Photon & Rec Room:
|
|
- The client uses Photon; this skeleton provides a WebSocket entry point you can use for reverse engineering and testing. Photon traffic is binary and has its own framing — you'll need to implement Photon protocol handling inside src/protocol.js (or add a UDP/TCP transport if Photon expects that).
|
|
- You said you can replace Photon keys & localhost yourself — point the client at this process and replace any required AppId/AppVersion in the client.
|
|
|
|
Next steps I can take after you confirm:
|
|
- Implement Photon framing and basic handshake to accept a 2023 Rec Room client (requires packet captures or protocol docs).
|
|
- Implement Steam/RecNet direct verification flow if you provide endpoints or tokens to test.
|
|
- Add more persistence (Redis) and matchmaking logic.
